Almost everybody on the nightmare revisited comments are all saying "the original is better". But this is a cover album. No one can top Danny Elfman but these artists are great too and again it is a cover album, it's not supposed to be the original. If you wanted that you should listen to that.
I like the original soundtrack, as well as most of the covers on Revisited - really neat to hear some of these bands' renditions. They maintain some of Elfman's intended flavor while adding their own distinctive touches.
While lacking in some areas, this song still holds a similar tone to that of the original. It chooses to be a bit more subtle with it's excitement, with calmer background music, but it's still enjoyable. The beginning is especially good, almost like the original. Overall, it's a good song. Nothing fantastic, but still a decent enough song to sit alongside the original.
i was a little kid when the movie came out. i used to watch it all the time. over and over. i loved the music and now that its change with the rock verisons i like it so much more.
wow. Done perfectly. The right tone of voice at the right parts of the song. I've been listening to the album and i was disappointed that there actually aren't many songs on it that are done perfectly like this.
hahaha I love how into character the lead singer gets. You can really tell they had fun recording this. Awesome cover from one of my best childhood memories! ^_^
I am still amazed at how well this movie turned out ! EPIC ! Seen it over 30 times and love it ! I like this redo on this and some of the other's.... this song reminds me of.... dang... that one line is ..... can't think what it reminds me of, but.. yeh
I love this version. Yeah, they don't have Danny Elfman's range, but they make it their own. It sounds more like a story when they sing it, not just a song.
I've loved this movie ever since I was a little girl. I loved it way before it became such a huge deal now a days. Still my favorite movie ever, i watch it every halloween.
I got serious chills when he hollered out "That's right, I AM the Pumpkin King!!" In that moment, he sounded nearly identical to Danny Elfman. Maybe I'm the only one who thought so but, yeah. :P
Finally a voice who could do a lot of the same vocal styling, for he can actually do those low, vibrating vocals. I love almost all the cover on this album, but the front man of the Plain White Tee's [ his name escapes me at the moment] came the closest to the original, while keeping his own style, BRAVO!
I think the film is the best musical I've ever seen, the songs are so clever and fun. I don't normally like musicals. I think this band did a very good job and his voice suits the song. Ignore the trolls, they get everywhere.
I have never heard them in my entire life until this song came out and Danny picked the right singer[s] They sung this aong absolutley perfectly. I love it completly♥ Some people make the song slower or worse or something... Nu uh. They were amazing! =DDD
i was singing this so passionately and with so much energy but i then i caught myself saying "that's right...I AM THE BANANA KING!!!" and i burst out laughing :D thanks a lot throughthedarkness13 :)
i like it simply cuz they didn't change the song too much, u can tell that they really like the movie and song simply cuz of the way they redid the song
Matt Long I agree, what I believe you are addressing is the difference between the skills of a singer vs. a voice actor. While there's much overlap, in the film Jack IS the Pumpkin King, so he's coming from the right place mentally, emotionally; whereas the singer here isn't necessarily going to that place. He's doing one song rather than spending the time it takes to make a movie getting into character - less investment. Many of my favorite singers are those who can bring the appropriate emotion, passion and mood to each individual song.
I'm not sure what everyone is talking about, I think the emotion is fine. He sounds sad, happy, grumpy, confident, and excited all when he should. Did you guys want him to cry or something?
@temarifan987 I did the same thing. :D I used to watch it almost every week.... But I wore out my VHS tape..... So to preserve it until the DVD came out for the anniversary I began to watch it only on those two dates.
What have I done... What have I done... I never Intended all this madness... Never... Why does nothing ever turn out right? Well what the heck?! I went and did my best... "AND I JACK THE PUMPKIN KING..." I LOVE THIS!!!
@Seraph825 so very tru i loved this since i was a kid when i first watched it at christmas time, i remba my dad askin me if i wanted to watch it cause it might have been a little scary, now im 23 and cant wait to get my kids to watch it! hate hangers on who have just come in and tell is die hard fans how we should like this movie
@MsHimynameisawsome I saw this movie in theaters when it was first released. I went AS Jack Skellington for the following Halloween. Thanks to this movie and The Crow I spent my high school years as a semi-goth. Trust me, I understand EXACTLY what you mean. I have to listen to someone who never saw the movie until they re-released it in 3D tell me that they're a bigger fan than me...funny how that happens.

Hannah May В этом смысле не было.
Tatyana Franz what
Damn straight :)
Nice not being rude but still getting the message across!
I actually heard this album before watching the movie and it's the reason I finally picked up the film. :)
oh man ,, i love how he says "why does nothing ever turn out as it should?"
calix smith I often find myself saying that when things go wrong
I love that line. It's awesome
Daniel A me too!!!!
I like the fact that he got in character while singing this, he almost captured the essence of Danny Elfman.
One of my favorite covers on this album. Well done!
I'm astounded by how appropriate his voice is for this song
I used to be so obsessed with this movie when I was like a toddler x) And I still love it to this day♥
This si an awesome soundtrack too :)
2:05 basically me all year
+JustCallMeAwesome Same
Same xD
+JustCallMeAwesome Same

ive been listening to this song on repeat for 4 hours holy shit-

he did such a great job singing it, kept to the spirit of the song and owned it~
This version it's full of personality...well done!
1:27 After an exam
when u go in feeling hella confident but end up getting a low score
h a h a h a i a g r e e
Lannistark (Naotsu) same
I'm dying
I LEGIT got 12/50 on an exam and I LEGIT just laughed with my friends since it was the worst I've got on an exam
That was awesome! I love hearing the different versions of these songs
I love this version. Yeah, they don't have Danny Elfman's range, but they make it their own. It sounds more like a story when they sing it, not just a song.
This is a beautiful rendition of Poor Jack ^-^
I love this song! and the way he sings it is awesome!
me when i step on my dogs tail "what have i done, what have i done"
LOVE ALL of nightmare revisited
i like both versions of this really good :D and this ones voice really adds emotion onto it
No one hate me, but I like this better than the original.
I don't hate you even though I prefer the original.
***** When I read 'YOU FOOL' I imagined it in GassyMexican's voice.
Clear Casket its ok man
I've loved this movie ever since I was a little girl. I loved it way before it became such a huge deal now a days. Still my favorite movie ever, i watch it every halloween.
This is the best song that I heard !!!
This is amazing!!!!!!
when I die I want this to be my last words
lol I'm 21 and I still go looking for the movie and the songs on youtube when Halloween comes around.
the singer of the plain white t's sounds like cryotic
no
I wish he sounded as good as cry does
Cry has a great voice, but without practice and proper warm-ups, his singing voice isn’t too great, honestly.
This aged well-
@@NovoxiaLazuli 😂😂😂
You can feel the anger and sadness
You poor soul! You truly have my deepest sincerest sympathies.
THIS IS SO CUTE!!! I mean they did a great job :D i like it owo
The first note played and I already love it
amazing! astounding!
Ahhh I love this!
Love this!
What have you done? To jack that is...
I love this cover!
that sounds really great!
this is so good ugh i love them so much
I got serious chills when he hollered out "That's right, I AM the Pumpkin King!!" In that moment, he sounded nearly identical to Danny Elfman. Maybe I'm the only one who thought so but, yeah. :P
Nightmare before christmas has been my favorite movie since the first time I saw it
this really is an amazing cover
this is a nice cover. A nice deep voice :)
Oh mah gawd!! I LOVE THIS!!
0:00-1:03 When you trade all your rares in AJ for a fake unrealased
After listening to Elfman's perfection and feeling, everything seems not quiet right.
I wonder what was running through their heads while they were singing this
I love this CD.
Finally a voice who could do a lot of the same vocal styling, for he can actually do those low, vibrating vocals. I love almost all the cover on this album, but the front man of the Plain White Tee's [ his name escapes me at the moment] came the closest to the original, while keeping his own style, BRAVO!
I love this :3
+thechocobyson Chu R everywhere on halloween songs
no matter who says it.."I, JACK!, the pumpkin king.." as long as u say it like jack, it..is.. awesome!

I love it completly♥
Some people make the song slower or worse or something... Nu uh. They were amazing!
=DDD
Took the words right out of my mouth O_o
I NEED this cd!!!
i was singing this so passionately and with so much energy but i then i caught myself saying "that's right...I AM THE BANANA KING!!!" and i burst out laughing :D thanks a lot throughthedarkness13 :)
This is a perfect description of me when I was 13 and accidentally erased my entire wii memmory
😭
dang that surprised me.
It was really good!
i like it simply cuz they didn't change the song too much, u can tell that they really like the movie and song simply cuz of the way they redid the song
i think of Jack Barakat when i hear this.....
I need help
Yes yes yes, me too!
Claudia Pacheco I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE.
This is a lot cleaner and calmer than the original but lacks the emotion from the original :(
That's what I'm sayin... He doesn't even sound like he wants to sing it like he's just uninterested. I don't like it at all.
That was definitely a problem with some of the songs on this album, but this one isn't too bad to me :)

Chucklemaniac agreed
yeah because the original is a *_musical_*
i watch this christmas or not!!!! epic movie. my kids love it
find a deep cave to hide, in a million years they'll find me only dust, and a plaque that reads "here lies poor old jack" favorite line :3
I spit my drink out because of you hahahahahaha brilliant XD
I'm not sure what everyone is talking about, I think the emotion is fine. He sounds sad, happy, grumpy, confident, and excited all when he should. Did you guys want him to cry or something?
LOVE THIS!
lolz I love all the originals and covers
I love the......Original version, but other then I that, i love all the other Revisited ones.....
I completely agree, it was a very well done cover imo
awsome he really does his sad emotion and at the begining it sounded like jack
@temarifan987 I did the same thing. :D I used to watch it almost every week.... But I wore out my VHS tape..... So to preserve it until the DVD came out for the anniversary I began to watch it only on those two dates.
Thank you, I just knew for sure people loved Danny better xD I like this version, but not as much as the original ^^
When life’s being a bitch.
1:28
Can’t believe it’s that time of year again!!!
And still can’t believe this is TEN years old!!!!
I'll take SHOCK! I love that little witch!!!!!
I like this version better than the original
sousnded like Volitare in then begining
I do the same thing at Christmas. I also pull out this CD and everyone thinks I'm crazy.
What have I done... What have I done...
I never Intended all this madness... Never...
Why does nothing ever turn out right?
Well what the heck?! I went and did my best...
"AND I JACK THE PUMPKIN KING..."
I LOVE THIS!!!
I love the harpsichord-sounding instrumental
Ilike it when he says " And here lies poor old jakc! " And my fav lyrics of the whole start at 1:22 to the end!
still love this song!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i love this
i need this CD
I'd either be jack, or someone else in the future of the universe of the movie because jack is the only one that fits with me in it's current state...
FAntastic Version!
@Seraph825 so very tru i loved this since i was a kid when i first watched it at christmas time, i remba my dad askin me if i wanted to watch it cause it might have been a little scary, now im 23 and cant wait to get my kids to watch it! hate hangers on who have just come in and tell is die hard fans how we should like this movie

Hell, i need to buy this album er what ever.
I'm singing this right now. :)
my two favorite things:
The nightmare before christmas
plain white ts
i love how all of these versions make the originals sound like crap... PERSONAL THOUGHT!!!
@sandcoffinmaster Jack's Lament is when he was all sad about being bored about being the Pumpkin King. All American Rejects did a cover of that one.
I ❤ this song
@sandcoffinmaster nono this is poor jack "Jacks lament "there are few who deny that what i do i am the the best" thats the first line
You can tell that not all the members read the original sheet music to this before "Revisting"
