    Dude these actors are literally incredible, way more than you realise. All of them actually play all their instruments and recorded it for the show and the album which is why they match up perfectly. The lead actress Madison, was only 15 when she made the show and obviously _killed_ it. AND she and the lead actor who plays like the main phantom wrote an entirely original song together to put in the show as a surprise the director Kenny Ortega. And the song is AMAZING.

    I would like to mention that Julie (Madison Reyes) was 14(!!!) years old when they cast her. This was her first acting job and also the first time singing in front of an audience. This was recorded during covid and I think she was 16 when the show came out. There is also a behind the scenes show where Kenny Ortega just is so massively impressed by her talent and the fact that she is so young with no experience yet she blew all of their minds. She really is a gem.
    I would also like to add that they originally wanted to make Julie and Luke (Charlie) kiss at the end but due to her age and their age gap, decided against it which i absolutely love because that's not always common unfortunately.
    Charlie and Madison also wrote a song together (Perfect Harmony) and the actors had a lot of say in general when it comes to their characters and songs.
    I'm still so mad at Netflix for cancelling the show and for refusing to sell the rights to Kenny Ortega.

    Context for the show: The boys (the Phantoms) were in a band and they were going to perform at the Orpheum, this famous concert hall. They went out to eat before the show, they took hot dog from a man who was doing them on his car, and they died because of food poisoning.
    They reappear years later, like 20-25 iirc, because of this girl, Julie.
    Julie is a teenager who lost her mom last year and since then, lost the want to sing. The boys will help her find music again and the will form a group named Julie and the Phantoms.
    The guys are dead, so they're ghosts and Julie can see them every time, while the other people can only see and hear them when they're performing.
    For everyone, it's Julie and her weird holograms 😂

    So essentially Kenny Ortega, the director of High School Musical and Descendants, was the executive producer of this show and directed the majority of the episodes. Julie is the only person who can see the boys except for when they all perform together as a band aka Julie and The Phantoms. The reason it looks like they’re playing their instruments is because they are actually performing lol; Kenny thought it important that they were an actual band. Please please do a part 2 to this!

    The first song you hear her sing in the show, Wake Up is honestly one of my favorites. It’s an uplifting song, but bittersweet because it was a song her mom wrote for her before she passed. It’s also just amazing.

    This show really wasn’t taken as seriously as it should have been because of the cheesy plot line made for kids but the music is out of this world. Its all about the small details that you picked up on. The fact that 3/4 of the lead actors are actually amazing musicians in real life brings this show to the next level. I wish I could’ve seen a season 2😭

    All members of the band can sing amazingly (seen mainly in ‘Now or Never’ ‘Stand Tall’ and ‘This Band Is Back), but since Luke was the original main singer in the band and Julie is also a singer, they get the most lines :) Reggie (the bassist, played by Jeremy Shada) has my favourite voice personally and I really wish we could of gotten a season 2 with a song with him on lead vocals.

    so, basically, the three boys were in a band but died, and now years later Julie found an old record or cd of theirs, played it, and they appeared as phantoms. Julie's the only one who can see them (don't know why) but people can hear their music when they play and see them when they play with Julie, hence why they magically appear in some songs, and no one but Julie sees them in All Eyes On Me (her friend knows about them). Julie plays them off as holograms. This show is honestly amazing; its emotional, it's realistic, the plot and storyline, the characters, the visuals and outfits/costumes, the songs are FANTASTIC AND EVERYONES VOICES ARE FABULOUS, and it's just really happy and vibey and a great show, and IM SO UPSET IT WAS CANCELLED but yea, definitely recommend to anyone and everyone
    PS u should listen to "Now or Never" Unsaid Emily" "Other Side of Hollywood" "You got nothing to lose" "Flying Solo" and "Perfect Harmony", know that's like most of the songs, but there honestly amazing

    @kathrynkoch955 11 месяцев назад +5

    actually, the actors and actresses, are actually playing the instruments live when it's being filmed, and I'm also convinced that they're singing live too, in the song "Bright" you can hear a slight I guess you could call it a "crack" in Julie's voice at the lyric "We will fight to shine together" when the guys all appear, but then when you listen to the official soundtrack during that song, there's no "crack" in her voice in the recorded version. So I believe they were also singing live when recording because of details like that. When I noticed that the first time when watching the show, when I went and added the soundtrack to a playlist I listened to see if I heard that crack and I didn't so I'm convinced that they sing live too, since the main band doesn't do any dancing or anything really. Now the girls in dirty candy might not be singing live just for that fact that they dance and without the proper training it'd be hard to make the vocals sound stable while singing live while dancing. I mean we see kpop idols dance and sing live but that's because they're trained to be able to do that.
    Edit: all the actors and actresses are all actually musicians outside of the show too, not just in the show but they all actually play these instruments and sing outside of the show so they're all actually musicians

  • @_dewdew_8705

    I don’t know if its been said before but you were spot on about the actors actually playing the instruments. All of the actors are also musicians that can play their instruments irl. Especially Charlie Gillespie (plays luke, the main guitarist) who even worked together with Maddison Reyes (plays Julie) to write an extra song for the show (perfect harmony)

    4) This Band is Back
    5) I Got the Music
    6) The Other Side of Hollywood
    7) Perfect Harmony (two of the actors wrote it. They shared it with Kenny and he said "it's going into the show". )
    8) Unsaid Emily (have your tissues ready - it's emotional)

    To give a basic rundown. Julie is the only one who can see/hear em alone w/o playing music. Everyone else can see/hear then WHEN they're playing music (they pop up when they play, and disappear when they stop). I love how the Phantom actors literally how to play and sing healthily for this.

They also are actually playing while doing the performing scenes and if not, they actually do know how to play the instruments!
    Kenny Ortega is the director/ Exec producer and yes, he also directed/choreo the Descendants, High school musical trilogy and much more!
