Thank goodness Ruhrgold is still alive! I think Control is right about him needing a lift.

I wonder who's bright idea it was to almost completely cut the title song from the show? Thankfully it was restored two years later.

It looks like Cb was the one who disconnected Pearl, was he trying to get her to crash somehow? Or was he trying to protect her from the hazards and GB and Electra fighting? Also another thing that is odd is that CB is usually the one who causes GB and Electra to crash (albeit with him accidentally getting caught in the crossfire) but in this he’s trying to stop the two from fighting

If the Starlight Express gets rebooted again, I’d like for the final race to be something like this. (With dialogue from the racers, that is. It made it easier for me to make sense of what was going on and really drew me into the action.) May Jesus bless you all and lead you to Him!

Does anyone have the prerecorded races in higher quality?

God bless you, Andrew Lloyd-Webber, for creating this oddball masterpiece of a musical, even if it didn’t last very long on Broadway

Go Electra

1:46 See ya Pearl!! 😝😝😝😝😝

Now you’re all wondering; “Why isn’t this filmed like the other races?” This is because they didn’t have enough time to film the third race so as you can see, they had the fight begin so the race would be cancelled before it even begun.

Bloody hell, the engines just beat each other up! 😮😂 Brutal

Using pre recorded footage for the race sequences is a smart idea to compensate for the fact that not every theater can have the mutli million dollar setup Broadway had.

such an odd angle this was filmed at. wonder what the seating arrangements were like

I'm so glad to find out this really was broadcast on television and it was not some fever dream I had in the 80s.

2:38 Is he okay?

Love her! Now as Mama, then as Pearl ❤ So great, to have her back in the Halle ❤️

This is very impressive for a musical production

I saw Starlight Express on Broadway in the summer of 1987. What a great memory!

Thank you thank you THANK you for uploading this. You don't know how much this means to me.

And would you believe it: She's back on this very stage after 34 years!

Cocaine's a helluva drug

Is this the same theatre in Bochum?

WTF ...starlight race ON A SCREEN ??? what happend,did there not find a bigger place for space to build racing tracks ?? i laughing tears

I was today years old when I found out that A Whole Lotta Locomotion sounds just like Beauty Underneath (1:20) But, u know what, I just love that you can always find bits and pieces in ALW's music, linked to other songs/musicals of him.

Who ever thought any of that was a good idea?

Take that Hamilton!

Dude has a sick mullet

I cannot believe I never noticed Rusty actually knocked out Greaseball & Electra in the tunnel

Who is this rusty? Xx

You got to love the 80s!

Muchas gracias por subirlo!! Adoro esta obra

Hast du die kommpelte show

Hast du die kommpelte show

He is fantastic

Ruhrgold was in the tunnel when it collapsed... He didn't come out, rip ruhrgold

This is actually Eric Clausell my brother!

Could just be the video or something, but they seem to be moving sp much slower than I've seen before. Granted, this is old, so maybe by time I saw it they sped up

What exactly is going on in the tunnel? What is the hazard, it's too blurry to see. Do the engines knock CB down?

soooooooo gay

Out of all of the songs, why this one?

Does someone know who is playing Caboose here? 🤔

can you imagine flipping to this randomly on the tv with absolutely no context lol

That voice! Those moves! Definitely a top contender for the best Caboose performance I've seen

In this song, the Roland D-50 internal patch “Horn Section” is/was heard.

Nintendo just surely died mid-race and nobody cares

Danke für die schönen Erinnerungen...

Did anyone else see him do a CARTWHEEL IN ROLLERSKATES

Fieser Wagen😬😬boah unglaublich wie leichtfüßig Electra da ist🥰🥰

Not London

Hey, rjlevin. variety.com/1997/scene/people-news/philip-clayton-1116678706/

Wonder why he isn’t wearing his shoulder pads.
