Lyrics:
What have I done?
What have I done?
How could I be so blind?
All is lost, where was I?
Spoiled all, spoiled all
Everything's gone all wrong
What have I done?
What have I done?
Find a deep cave to hide in
In a million years they'll find me
Only dust and a plaque
That reads, "Here Lies Poor Old Jack"
But I never intended all this madness, never
And nobody really understood, how could they?
That all I ever wanted was to bring them something great
Why does nothing ever turn out like it should?
Well, what the heck, I went and did my best
And, by God, I really tasted something swell
And for a moment, why, I even touched the sky
And at least I left some stories they can tell, I did
And for the first time since I don't remember when
I felt just like my aold bony self again
And I, Jack, the Pumpkin King
That's right, I am the Pumpkin King, ha, ha, ha
And I just can't wait until next Halloween
'Cause I've got some new ideas
that will really make them scream
And, by Godm I'm really gonna give it all my might
Uh oh, I hope there's still time to set things right

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.
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.
2:05 basically me all year
+JustCallMeAwesome Same

+JustCallMeAwesome Same
Lauren Menelli yas gurl yas

I'm astounded by how appropriate his voice is for this song
One of my favorite covers on this album. Well done!
Here lies poor old jack.
David Wayne but I never intended all this madness

And nobody really understood, well how could they??!

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
Love this cover.
me when i step on my dogs tail "what have i done, what have i done"
when I die I want this to be my last words
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 :)
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 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.
he did such a great job singing it, kept to the spirit of the song and owned it~
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.
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.
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 😂😂😂
ive been listening to this song on repeat for 4 hours holy shit-
LOVE ALL of nightmare revisited
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.

What have you done? To jack that is...
After listening to Elfman's perfection and feeling, everything seems not quiet right.
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
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 love this song! and the way he sings it is awesome!
This version it's full of personality...well done!
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! ^_^
This is the best song that I heard !!!
The first note played and I already love it
That was awesome! I love hearing the different versions of these songs
Nightmare before christmas has been my favorite movie since the first time I saw it
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.
lol I'm 21 and I still go looking for the movie and the songs on youtube when Halloween comes around.
This is a beautiful rendition of Poor Jack ^-^
I wonder what was running through their heads while they were singing this
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
You can feel the anger and sadness
no matter who says it.."I, JACK!, the pumpkin king.." as long as u say it like jack, it..is.. awesome!
i like both versions of this really good :D and this ones voice really adds emotion onto it
0:00-1:03 When you trade all your rares in AJ for a fake unrealased
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
You poor soul! You truly have my deepest sincerest sympathies.
I love this CD.
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.
sousnded like Volitare in then begining
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
This is a perfect description of me when I was 13 and accidentally erased my entire wii memmory
😭
awsome he really does his sad emotion and at the begining it sounded like jack
Ahhh I love this!
This is amazing!!!!!!
love how he pronounces some words of the song
I'll take SHOCK! I love that little witch!!!!!
Love this!
Didn't need the lyrics, I still know all of the songs from this masterpiece off by heart.
Thanks for uploading!
YEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSS
I love this cover!
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!
I love this
i love when he sings "poor old jack..."
LOVE THIS!
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?
amazing! astounding!
I don't think he sounded sad or believable enough at the first part, but at the part where Jack gains confidence again, I think he got into character a lot better.
this is so good ugh i love them so much
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...
I NEED this cd!!!
i love this
... Time to go check all existing forests. Every inch of every forest.
my two favorite things:
The nightmare before christmas
plain white ts
Took the words right out of my mouth O_o
that sounds really great!
I love the harpsichord-sounding instrumental
I love the......Original version, but other then I that, i love all the other Revisited ones.....
lolz I love all the originals and covers
I ❤ this song
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!
this is awesome
Oh mah gawd!! I LOVE THIS!!
i watch this christmas or not!!!! epic movie. my kids love it
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!!!
love!
I like this version better than the original
this really is an amazing cover
i love how all of these versions make the originals sound like crap... PERSONAL THOUGHT!!!
THIS IS SO CUTE!!! I mean they did a great job :D i like it owo
I do the same thing at Christmas. I also pull out this CD and everyone thinks I'm crazy.
i connect with these vocals way more
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.
Hell, i need to buy this album er what ever.
I love this :3
+thechocobyson Chu R everywhere on halloween songs
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
FAntastic Version!
this reminds the time I try to be a P.E teacher didn't last long because I was to intimidating :( oh well
still love this song!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You can tell that not all the members read the original sheet music to this before "Revisting"
If only Halloween Town was real I would totally live there.
I WAS JUST THINKING THAT!
They sing this very well : D
I completely agree, it was a very well done cover imo
