That is a perfect lyric for the situation, given all Florence has been through, and we know she's sadder but wiser. Although it's almost a throwaway line, it gets me every time.
I love a lot of musicals, a lot of really great ones that I thought could never be topped. Then I bought this DVD and I'm... there aren't even any words. This is the single most amazing thing I have ever seen in my entire life. This duet especially... makes me cry every time :') I can't believe this isn't more popular, but I'm kind of glad because it makes it feel more special to love it.
I've been waiting 30 years to find out the ending to this story ever since we studied this musical in school when I was 13, listening to the album, which didn't give away the ending. And I never knew until now what happened. Thank you for answering a 30 year old question.
+sassyangelkiwi The ending gets changed in different versions. Americans didn't like the Russian winning, but it's the best version.I think this may still be different from the first 2 versions (london/broadway)
michael sullivan imo its the best way to convey the admittedly bleak overarch. (i.e. “this was a pointless exercise in national chauvinism, hungary will continue to be picked apart and balkanized by the cia with no real consequences except the death of hungarian democracy.” the problem with a lot of directors’ take on this show (americans and brits especially) is they try to petilly re-enact the cold war in a way that they magically win. that’s not what the show’s about, even if you disagree with my interpretation.
"There will be days and nights when I will want you more than I want to" is such a beautiful description of heartbreak and grief. Love this musical so much
I have to agree with you! I am thrilled so many people have fallen in love with it as I did. When I first saw it, I fell head over heels in love. I ended up watching it every day for a week after the first time. When I returned it to the library, I was really sad. I ended up walking 2 miles and back the next day to get it again. I ordered it that night and kept the library edition until mine arrived. I actually own 6 different productions on cd now. You are more than welcome! :D
I have been a fan of this musical since the concept album came out and think think this version is a great culmination of a number of developments over the years, it acknowledges the time/place it was originally set during that uncomfortable era around the Cold War but ultimately it’s a story of unrequited love. I was most impressed by Josh Groban’s performance.

Thank you so much for uploading this. I didn't intend to spend nearly 3 late night/early morning hours watching this and feeling nostalgic for my adolescence in the late 80's but I sure am glad I did. Thanks again for giving me that chance. It's things like this that make me so happy to live in the age of the internet.
I saw this on Broadway back in the 80's and fell in love with it. It never really got the attention it deserved! I'm so glad that it made it into this production with this wonderful cast of players! Bravo! And thanks to you for sharing this with us!!!!
It's lovely how she breaks into Elaines phrasing. She must have sung along with her just like we do...Then she lifted herself into the high notes with a bit of Streisand 😁 love this, thank you
Thanks so much for this. It's April 26, 2020 now and the bloody world is on fire. I need to dream of a future when events like this are possible again.
I’m in tears! Thank you so much for sharing this. I really appreciate it as someone who wasn’t born until the 2000’s I obviously didn’t have a chance to see it while it was on the West End or on Broadway. I love how different each production is (so I’ve heard from many of the comments) and the cast is also incredible!
An absolutely WONDERFUL play......I heard a couple of songs in Great Brittan in 1988 & fell in love. Came home & bought the CD, this version is so amazing...it should be on Broadway.....GREAT MUSIC......GREAT STORY!!!!!
I've fallen head over heels for this musical thanks to finding this when looking for audition songs - it's absolutely fantastic, thank you so much for uploading!
By seeing this first on TH-cam perhaps I've spoiled all future musicals for myself because i am totally awestruck - how could anything ever match this?
Cool! :) I've been wondering what this was about ever since I found out that "One Night In Bangkok" was from it. Great to finally get to see the rest of the story. And naming it Checkers? :) Clever! Very clever! What a great way to get around the "censorship Nazis" that seem to keep patrolling TH-cam. 5 stars! :)
Thank you so much for uploading this; I haven't heard all the music since I went to see it back in the late 80s or very early 90s, and it was a real pleasure to be reacquainted. Still some of the best music of any West End musical ever - and for all that the story's setting is "of its time", its core elements still resonate. Marvellous.
I suppose it must have been late '80s as according to Wikipedia it only ran in the West End from May '86 to Apr '89. Less than 3 years! I was lucky to catch it. I remember being impressed by the way they used a light-up floor of 64 squares both as a giant chess board and, by raising one side of it and lighting all the squares, as a snowy mountainside.
I remember seeing this in the West End. Phantom was on about the same time but this was the 'one' to see. Les miserables were desperately trying to hawk tickets. I'm almost sure they were giving them away lol The microphone broke during one of Elaines solos. Even though I was in the very back of the theatre, I could still hear her... incredible night
I'm only listening to this with the poor quality of my phones loudspeakers and I have chills all over my body. My heart is beating so fast. If I listen to this in any better quality I think I will cry. This is a masterpiece
ok, just want to say thanks. This is my third time listening to it at work and ordered it through Amazon last week and now have watched to 3 times now. Thanks!!!!
And then came a young boy from Norway who change the whole game Magnus Karlsen 🇧🇻 Thank you very much to whoever has taken the time to post all this💕 utrolug go sound quality and image quality I've never seen this musical, admitting and that there are a lot of songs I didn't know they were made for this musical. Now this isn't my cup of tea but I fell in love with this musical 💕
Having not been able to see the full musical in 27 years, I am thrilled to see it her and hopefully as thrilled as after seeing it in Bielefeld on May 27th this year. Thanks a lot for uploading visual versions of the music tthat accompanies me for many many years!
Absolutely fantastic - I can't get enough - when I finished it I went straight back to the beginning and watched (and more importantly listened to) it through again - this has got to be one of the best TH-cam uploads ever! I'll join in the chorus and add my own heartfelt thank you, Chessloverforever!
ive both seen and performed in chess, some of the lyrics in this production are defiantly different, but it is still a great production...thank you for sharing it for us to enjoy
It's an interesting story, actually. The first night they did kiss, but the second they didn't. The reason is because the queen attended the second performance, the filmed one. Apparently you are not allowed to kiss in front of the queen. In fact, before they watch movies they have someone preview them so they can be warned to cover their eyes for sex scenes. Evidently you can say any number of curse words in front of her, however. :P
They actually filmed both nights. From a production perspective, you would never film only one night for something that's going to be televised. Also, throughout the show you can see a few cuts that are not totally seamless. It looks like they took cuts from both nights to make this DVD.
Thank you for aploiding this. I have never seen chest on stage and yet and this amazing talented cast with Josh groban in it s just great. now I want to see the show . Thanks a lot for that and for making me a chest addict :)
i found out today that my school is doing this as our musical next year and i was beyond pissed because i hadn’t heard of it but oh my god i am excited
Thank you everyone, thank you uploader, and thank you internet, absolutely 10/10/10/10. An unexpected delight if i might say so. truly inspiring few hours of my life definitely not wasted

Thank you so much for uploading this. FINALLY I got to watch the whole thing. Beautiful. Though I would have liked to have seen more Kerry.. I can't complain!
WOW! I loved you more Josh Groban. O My God this World Chess Championship Performance Quite So Extra-Ordinary Most Powerful Empowering Inspiring Motivating Giving me energy, effort, hope to live, more strength persevere believing myself like Josh Groban we, "Believe, You Are Loved." I loved Stages released now April 28, 2015 I have it WOW! #1 Album #Stages in UK & coming more Congratulation Josh Groban more Fame 2015...more to come. :)
@KingPiccoloDaimao lol Thank you! I thought it was about time someone put it up here. More people should know about this fantastic musical, in my mind. I'm glad you enjoyed!
I feel the same way. I have seen other musicals that had great stories and great music, but somehow they usually never measure up. The one I think that gives Chess a run for its money is Fiddler on the Roof, in terms of music and story. I tend to like the music from Chess better, however. At least more songs from Chess than Fiddler.
The end is most definitely my favorite. Although, one thing....I love love LOVE Idina, but she cannot bring the same power to 'Anthem' as Josh did. I preferred his version in act one.
"It’s only a game" sums up Walter. He and Molokov played and manipulated everyone for their own ends. Freddie was an ass at the beginning but at least undergoes character development and ultimately just cares about chess and wants the best player to win
Thankyouthankyouthankyou 1000 times thank you! Oh I love this and how it's truely supposed to be done! I just wish this version was the version available for licensing.... but till then it's nice to dream!

Really enjoyed watching this again. thanks for uploading it. I wonder if they made this musical in o a film how would it be ? was anyone else wondering that too?
Probably the definitive concert performance of CHESS out there. TH-cam uploads (and whatever tinny computer speakers you're using) does this incredible recording no justice whatsoever! If you have the DVD, especially in Blu-Ray format, you can hear the Royal Albert Hall's magnificent Grand Organ coming in right at the end (6:37) - an inspired touch. Sadly, you don't hear it here.
I love both these performers but seeing the original on Broadway with Dave Carroll, Judy Khan and Philip Casnoff was so much better. I am happy they brought it back though because it wasn't given the well deserved run on Broadway it should have been given
Did I miss a segment of a video, or did they cut out The Argument? I always liked that song. :-( Still, lots of good ones left. I especially like the choir pieces and Molokov in this version, but Josh Groban is a pretty good Anatoly too.
Pretty much every production since the concept album cuts out The Argument and I have no idea why. It's instrumental in showing how Florence and Anatoly's relationship is beginning to strain under pressure, and removing it makes his decision to put chess (and himself) before any of his relationships come out of left field.
I believed only the original Broadway and the original Swedish production managed to include Arguement. I'm not sure with the Russian production if they managed to add Arguement.
I've watches this like a million times (because it's just phenomenal), and i still get excited over the fact that that dress has pockets
Piper McLean Same here 😂😎
Me too!
Same here. Once a week, minimum. It’s magic!
IT DOES?!!! :D
Agree)
Idina is wonderful in this final scene. Near the end before she sings "no you wouldn't listen anyhow. . ", she conveys so much emotion and heartbreak.
i agree. thats one of my favorite parts
+ymmsangel I can't watch that without dying in that part.
ymmsangel watching her in this scene, especially that part is a masterclass, it’s incredible
That is a perfect lyric for the situation, given all Florence has been through, and we know she's sadder but wiser. Although it's almost a throwaway line, it gets me every time.
I think you mean listen lanyhow...
Walter: "no change there, huh?" *chuckles at his own joke*
Florence: "bITCH"
I love a lot of musicals, a lot of really great ones that I thought could never be topped. Then I bought this DVD and I'm... there aren't even any words. This is the single most amazing thing I have ever seen in my entire life.

Greatest presentation!!!!💋❤️❤️❤️
Totally agree
I agree this is a masterpiece of music!!!
My other fav is THE CONSUL
It is very much a niche favorite, isn't it? But truly a masterpiece.
"Hasn't this been a great achievement? Losing your man and nothing in return" always gets me. Such a great show.
I've been waiting 30 years to find out the ending to this story ever since we studied this musical in school when I was 13, listening to the album, which didn't give away the ending.
And I never knew until now what happened.

Me too! Bless you for this!
michael sullivan The one I watched was an American version and it was sad knowing they both sacrificed their love for a lie.
michael sullivan imo its the best way to convey the admittedly bleak overarch. (i.e. “this was a pointless exercise in national chauvinism, hungary will continue to be picked apart and balkanized by the cia with no real consequences except the death of hungarian democracy.” the problem with a lot of directors’ take on this show (americans and brits especially) is they try to petilly re-enact the cold war in a way that they magically win. that’s not what the show’s about, even if you disagree with my interpretation.
The ending is whatever the propaganda ministry wants it to be.
That last scene gives me full-body chills every time!
Everytime I listen to them sing this song together I cry. I beyond love Josh Groban and Idina Menzel. And Chess is one of my favourite musicals.
I have gone *absolutely checkers* over this brilliant concert performance of *"Chess!"* Bravo! Brava!
"There will be days and nights when I will want you more than I want to" is such a beautiful description of heartbreak and grief.
Love this musical so much
Once again, thanks a million for uploading this!

my heart is breaking for Florence. Trying to do the good thing only to realize that she was being used (as a pawn hehe Chess metaphor) in the end
Was she really being used? I might not understand everything they say without subtitles but weren’t they forced to be apart?

Anthem outro
06:36 That bass trombone
I have mixed feelings for Anatoly; I both love and hate his character.
Then they've done their job! :)
@OhMySweetStars You're welcome! I'm so happy you were able to finally see it.
Wonderful
Лучший дуэт Джоша с Лаурой Паузини
I love this! Thank you for sharing.
The way I would die for Idina
Really enjoyed watching this again. thanks for uploading it. I wonder if they made this musical in o a film how would it be ? was anyone else wondering that too?
Probably the definitive concert performance of CHESS out there. TH-cam uploads (and whatever tinny computer speakers you're using) does this incredible recording no justice whatsoever! If you have the DVD, especially in Blu-Ray format, you can hear the Royal Albert Hall's magnificent Grand Organ coming in right at the end (6:37) - an inspired touch. Sadly, you don't hear it here.
ATTER ALL OF THAT FLORENCE DOES NOT HAVE A HAPPY ENDING???!!!
(it's a nice ending...)
Fantastic. Thank you so much
I love josh he's so cute !!! I wish he would sing to me lol
Fantastic!
I love both these performers but seeing the original on Broadway with Dave Carroll, Judy Khan and Philip Casnoff was so much better. I am happy they brought it back though because it wasn't given the well deserved run on Broadway it should have been given
Too bad that there aren’t dvd’s anymore, and if there are the prices are absurd
I read thru the comments and no one has asked what happened to the song One night in Bangkok?
Part 12 is blocked in the UK! :-( Can someone PLEASE make it available? Thank you
same for the US :( PLEASE bring it back!!!!
Same for Australia; need Part 12 please
Likewise!
Did I miss a segment of a video, or did they cut out The Argument? I always liked that song. :-( Still, lots of good ones left. I especially like the choir pieces and Molokov in this version, but Josh Groban is a pretty good Anatoly too.
Pretty much every production since the concept album cuts out The Argument and I have no idea why. It's instrumental in showing how Florence and Anatoly's relationship is beginning to strain under pressure, and removing it makes his decision to put chess (and himself) before any of his relationships come out of left field.
I believed only the original Broadway and the original Swedish production managed to include Arguement. I'm not sure with the Russian production if they managed to add Arguement.
