Seth MacFarlane performing Joey, Joey, Joey from The Most Happy Fella in the BBC Proms 2012 - Broadway Sound with the John Wilson Orchestra.
Recorded and performed on 27th August and Broadcasted on BBC2 on 1st Sept.
I do not claim to own any content, this belongs to the original broadcaster. I am only uploading this for prosperity's sake.
Who knew that such a master of irony in humour would not only be a singer, but take on a hopelessly romantic song such as this.Some people have so much talent it's frightening.
Honestly, it's not a surprise, given the level of care he puts into the Family Guy songs. I'm legit surprised he hasn't produced a musical yet, he could've had a decent career or that.
This performance is flawless. Incredible technique, vocals and delivery. Perfect.
My brother, Joe, passed away last week. My mother said she woke up humming this song softly outloud the other night She used to sing it to my brother Joe as a lullaby.
Comedian, cartoonist, movie maker, singer extraordinaire, and, of course, creator of THE ORVILLE. Freaking renaissance man ...
Seth MacFarlane has a gorgeous baritone voice and performed this song flawlessly. He'd probably be wonderful in a production of "Most Happy Fella". I've heard his "Ya Got Trouble" on TH-cam as well, and think he'd make a great Harold Hill. I'd love to hear him do "Soliloquy" from "Carousel" sometime. He definitely has the range for it.
Wanted so much to like this rendition, but it's just too "pop" for me. I want to hear it with a baritone who has a buzz and point to his voice. And doesn't need a microphone. This is too Perry Como/Bing Crosby crooner style.
He sure does. Sometimes I wonder if people take him seriously as a singer because of all the comic work he's done.
Very nicely done. Refreshing to see a younger singer actually singing in this older more melodic style. Good voice, beautiful arrangement--just lovely!
Well, he was 39 at that point, so hardly a kid. And yes, it WOULD be nice to hear younger musical theater singers performing in this "older" more melodic style!
I remember seeing this when it was first broadcast and really being struck by it. The atmosphere is just so intoxicatingly wistful. On my last night in the house I lived in at university back in 2015, it suddenly came back to me and I couldn’t get it out of my head. I laid in bed in the middle of the night and listened to it, reflecting on the time I’d spent in that place, and the prospect of leaving it, and made peace with moving on. From then on it became my ceremonial leaving song.
Today I left the house of my grandmother for the last time, and in the early hours of this morning I came here once again.
This performance has proved itself an invaluable companion in times of transition such as this. You can’t stay anywhere forever, but that isn’t necessarily a bad thing.
His voice always puts my soul at ease. The vibrations from this man are unmatched.
still waiting for him to write a Broadway musical .....
Both a sensational and deeply moving performance here by Seth. He is in his best voice ever, and this simply conjures up memories of the past for me.
The Arrangement and ORCHESTRATION!!!!
S T U N N I N G !!!!!💕💕💕
My goodness. His last few notes. Seth's voice just soars.
He's simply great, this is such a difficult song, never before heard it sung so perfectly!
What a guy. Good looks, great voice. He makes my heart beat faster. Only wish I was 50 yrs younger, although I'm prepared to have a heart attack.
Joey, Joey, Joey
Like a perfumed woman
The wind blows in the bunkhouse
Like a perfumed woman
Smelling of where she's been
Smelling like...
Oregon cherries, or maybe
Texas avocados, something like
Arizona sugar beans
The wind blows in
She sings to me
Cause I'm one of her rambling kin
She sings
Joey, Joey, Joey
Joey, Joey, Joey
You've been too long
In one place
It's time to go
Time to go, oh
Joey, Joey, Joey
Joey, travel on
You're been too long
In on town
And the harvest time's
Come and gone
That's what the wind
Sings to me
When the bunk I've been
Bunking in
Gets to feeling too soft and coze
When the grub they've been
Cooking me
Gets to tasting too good
When I've had all I want
All the ladies in the neighborhood
She sings
Joey, Joey, Joey
Joey, travel on
You've been too long
In one place
And it's time to go
Time to go, oh
Joey, Joey
Joey, Joe...

Sethis a National treasure, i have watched his career and voice grow, awesome rendition Seth.x
Seth enriched with so much talent!
I don't know if this sounds weird, but I would love to see Seth as The Phantom. It would be a completely different role from anything he's done, but I firmly believe he could do it. I just love hearing him sing these ballads!
Every cynic is a tormented romantic.
This beautiful performance by this particular person more than proves it.😊
Good comedy is often misconstrued as cynical. It's more about poking fun at bullshit honestly without pretention and phoniness. Most celebs deserve to be made fun of because they take themselves so seriously and Family Guy just takes on many who need the hot air let out of them.
@@DA90027 True! Satire is a characteristic of a civilized society. I was just surprised to see McFarlane so romantic and he did not at all satirize it. That really fascinated me because all I had seen of him before was either his cartoons or his nasty (and very cynical) roast shows.
what a complex dude. Immensely talented, from the sublime (this) to the ridiculous (family guy). never a dull moment with Seth
A grand old song rendered impeccably by a massive talent .....
Ok that last note there is proof that he can sing classical/legit musical theatre. I am just waiting for that day to come.
I always listen to the ending twice because I'm in awe of how beautiful he is.
One of Lee Sweetland's last and among his best students. Beautifully sung, Seth.
he is stupidly beautiful and even more when he sings! xx
p.s. Now he needs to sing "Maria" from West Side Story, and I can die happy.
American dad season 4 ep 19, he duets with Patrick Stuart :D
+BettinaBalser A better fit musically and stylistically would be "They Call the Wind Maria" from PAINT YOUR WAGON. Though that would also be a good pairing with "Maria" from WEST SIDE STORY!
Yes I think he can totally pull off legit/classical musical theatre repertoire.
Super talented guy
So beautiful. So haunting.
Where is the standing ovation he deserves??!! Amazing!!
i know i will get bashed for this, but i definitely prefer to have seth macfarlane perform on broadway than have him do his family guy crap. i knew he never was a such a fantastic singer. He needs to do more of this. He has such wonderful singing abilities
Totally agree with you! I was nearly brought to tears while hearing this! Bravo Seth! Hope to see you do more of this!
He is doing more of this though
He's quite capable of doing both, and is doing so. Don't stop people enjoying his comedies just because you don't particularly favour them.
Jax Reads Who said I was trying to stop people from watching his comedies? All I was doing was just expressing an opinion. If you and everyone else enjoy watching family guy or any other of his comedies, that's fine. I'm not gonna stop you. It's your life, you do whatever you want.
While I enjoy his singing, the world needs more mad cap comedies like Family Guy. The guy is a genius.
Mr. MacFarlane I wish u focused more on your music. I enjoy your comedy & are a fan of your shows/ movies but this is truly amazing, I feel as if I'm listening to the rat pack where u would have belonged. Anyone reading this commet purchase his cd, music is better than words. U can buy on Amazon
I love his singing! Love his Stewie, voice too!
Don Walker deserves more recognition. Exquisite arrangement
Agree with voottee. Exquisitely beautiful.
It's too beautiful and as a consequence the undercuts the song's poignancy. The careful diction gets in the way of authenticity.
I wanted my fan girl crush on him to go away....that worked out real well :') absolutely beautiful voice!
don't fight it, join the club
phenomenal!!!!
gorgeous man
WHY DOES NOBODY WATCH THESE VIDEOS? HE IS PERFECTION
??? 1 000 liked this (155 000 watched) and 4 000 subscribe to the channel.
HIS FACE IS FREAKING ME out man, sorry had it on caps, but what I say stands
What does that even mean?
if you always think like that youll never enjoy another male singer of this genre.
I love the way his right eyebrow moves when he sings Joey
Utterly gorgeous.
8 yrs into the future and high time u made a Proms return, Seth. You know u want it fella. [Stewie - pls kidnap him outta the past and get him into here. Thx awfully].
Unique !!!
Amazingly Talented !!!!
Song from the 40's sad! He even sigs good, too. A man with many talents
This Orchestra have played "Soliloquy" from "Carousel" with Julian Ovendon singing, it is on TH-cam.
Leslie Odom Jr.'s is my favorite, but this is just so lovely~~
With all due respect to Mr Macfarlane, the finest version of Joey from The Most Happy Fella is by baritone, the late Edmund Hockridge, sensational!
Magnificent
this is true, but it's kinda cool that Seth MacFarlane was actually trained by the same old couple who trained Sinatra, so i'd say if anyone could be "crowned" the new Sinatra, MacFarlane has his foot through the door ;) just saying haha
Much more head voice than the Art Lund version, but I love them both!
GREAT!!!!!!!
amazing surprise!! he was only knowed as a comedian writer.producer .!
He could easily be on broadway what the fuck man
Adult swim asked what song I would like to listen to over and over--this is it.
SO FUCKING PERFECT AND GORGEOUS
amazing voice, but hahaha his eyebrows vibrate along with his vibrato
:D
Its normal cuz he sang from his head.
Elton John tends to flick his eyebrows when he sings.
Alexander Lee Seth sings...and the Angels kiss.
You have to admit that's a special skill. XD
Is there anything that Seth MacFarlane can't do? is family guy not enough.. and he has to conquer broadway in the process... he's totally nailed the proms.. wow
He would definitely get an A in vocal jury but he would so get dinged on his final for his inability to take a stance and stand in one place. Profs would say, he is losing too much emotional energy shifting his weight from foot to foot - and they would be right! But his voice is really glorious.
WOW, he's amazing! He reminds me a lot of Frank Sinatra! Wish he would do more singing! :)
His interpretation is Art Lund's, the one from the original show. Lund's is better, though. It captures better the emotional complexity of this brilliant song.
Joey, Joey, Joey, Joe Joe, Junior .... Shabadoo.
Oh man you are really good, in brazil me and my friends like very much family guy and Ted
Brava!
Broadway concert please! :)
I'll be damned, Seth!
I can't take my eyes off his eyebrows in the close-ups...
Another great performance by Ron's kid. What's his name again?
Nice job Peter
I need to sing with him. Let's duet!
I'm getting a Frank Sinatra Christmas kinda vibe from this music
This is nice, but honestly I much prefer Judy Garland’s upbeat version to this one (or, for that matter, Art Lund’s or Leslie Odom’s). Actually, Nancy Wilson’s jazzy version is really nice too. Just a preference. The mark of a good song is that different singers can sing it successfully in different styles.
Seth definitely dyes his hair
He has a wonderful voice, but his acting skills aren’t strong enough to pull off telling the story of the song. He kinda sways and croons, but there’s no emotional connection to the words. This is fine for a concert, but I don’t believe he could pull off doing a Broadway show. Still a huge fan of his writing.
My boyfriend killing it!!!
A jot of useless information......Sir Paul McCartney owns the copyright of Most Happy Fella....now yer didn't know that did yer!
Sings
tiene el vibrato en la ceja derecha
That was a painful slog.....
His voice has a similar timbre to Matt Monroe's.
Joey Bishop used this as the theme song for his talk show but I never heard the lyrics til Seth sang it.
Close your eyes and you hear Sinatra. Awesome.
that is some eye-brow action. Amazing!! A fair singer for the role. Original cast singer was better.
ok?????
¿Que?
Family guy sings...
i wish he would drink less at least i do not wanna loose him :(
Good job, with some reservations, but if you really want the hair to stand up on the back of your neck, listen to Leslie Odom Jr. sing this song.
Or Judy...
Or Al Jarreau...
A decent and full West End/Broadway voice perfect for the stage and musicals, maybe even light operettas. I'll never be a fan of his animated work (nor of those people who made the older Simpsons for the same reason). Biased **** (expletive deleted) against married straight men portrayed as childlike morons and oafs rescued by their long-suffering women (wives and daughters). Shallow propaganda for the radical feminists, and culture warriors who despise anything traditional, such as loving couples with unique qualities, and men who are adults not overgrown children.
meh
boring
Clay Roberts
No
It’s mr family guy he’s never boring
