@@clairethompson5549 Charming and evocative as this notion is, I doubt it frankly. You need creative discipline to come up with something that good. You can draw inspiration from drunkent moments when sober but if you actually try and write something drunk or high there's usually no quality control.
Every time David Tennant performs, his love for the craft shines through so brightly, it is a reward to witness it. I'm convinced this man can't do anything I'd dislike, simply because he does everything with such infectious enthusiasm.
I've never seen him in anything and not enjoyed his performance, not even his early work, like 'Taking Over the Asylum' (absolutely find this and watch it if you want to see Such!A!Kid!David! He's SO adorable!). He's been on his game from the start and only gotten better. There are things he's done I've been like, "Yeah, not my thing; think I'll pass," but it's been b/c of what it's about, never because I didn't think I'd enjoy his performance. TBH, there are times when he's played the villain, such as in Jessica Jones, I've had to seriously debate if I'm going to watch b/c of how incredibly good he is at being creepy, soulless, and evil. It can be triggering for me. I suppose it's a compliment; "You're such a good actor it triggers me and I cannot watch"? 😄
So true. Unfortunately also when he plays a serial killer. Brilliant performance but terrifying. Wish I could see him do Macbeth on stage, it's going to be epic.
I wish there was video of this. I would've loved to see his facial expressions as he bounced between Azi and Crowley. I feel like his entire bodily attitude would've changed. It's such a pleasure to hear him do this.
God dang it, his Michael Sheen impression. Like damn, that voice modulation made his voice unrecognizable for a moment like DAYUM. AND THEN HE GOES BACK TO DAVID TENNANT!!
You should listen to his readings of How To Train Your Dragon. They're so good. He has this fire and passion when he reads them and do so many voices for all the characters. really it's astounding.
@@helizaj2620 Oh, I know, lol, I already have that by now. But I wouldn't mind if David just did one doing all the voices, cuz you know he'd totally just go ALL out xD
@@jcksparrowfan oh awesome, I've been meaning to get it myself. Just wanted to mention it in case you didn't know! But I would also love to hear David read it all hinself, that would be a masterpiece lmao
@@helizaj2620 I actually love that they brought Michael and David in for that audio, cuz now we get to hear them reading all the original lines that didn't make the show.
“You know what eternity is? You know what eternity is? I mean DO YOU KNOW WHAT ETERNITY IS?!” My favorite delivery in this clip, aside from Tennant trying adorably hard to mimic Sheen during Azi’s lines.
I could listen to that gorgeous voice all damn day... Also DOLPHINS. 🐬 That's my point. Big brains the size of... Size of... Damn big brains. And the whales! Brain city, whales! 🐳 And last but not least... The KRAKEN. 🐙
Where/when was this performed?! It's absolutely brilliant and I want more! DT is so very incredible - the way he crafts the words and brings them to life...Had me in stitches and grinning like an idiot throughout - my face actually hurts now from smiling so much 😂❤
4:47 there was episod in doctor who(Heaven Sent s9 e11) there was this story about the bird... when the doctor was trapped in the confession dial for 2 billion years and was breaking diamond wall by hand
Ah, my favourite scene. Paused my reread to read over this scene again. And then watch the equivalent scene in the show, which led me here. And I've listened to this a few more times in the last 2 days. And then read it one more time before continuing on. It's got to the point where I'm hearing Mr Tennant's voice narrating in my head. There are worse problems to have...
Crowley's story of the bird sharpening its beak is suspiciously reminiscent of the Buddhist way of describing a kalpa, which is a measurement of time. Only in the Buddhist version it is a delicate piece of cloth just touching the mountain.
@@annieinwonderland they were gonna have michael be crowley and thats it, they only hired david bc michael thought crowley wouldnt suit him therefore opening a chance for anyone else to be crowley, there have never been plans on david being aziraphale, he only came up bc the position for crowley was open.
What i need to know is where is this from? Like he read that part only? What about the audience, it was a theatre or what? Like in what context dis he read a 10 min excerpt of Good Omens? Did he read more? Is there video of this? I need to know!
The explanation of the bird and the mountain is the same as the one in series 9 of Doctor Who in the episode "Hell Bent", I'm pretty sure it would've been another Easter Egg
That voice,❤❤❤❤, On a slightly different but completely the same note I just received my Richard, the second D. V. D. He is cute with a capital, c the voice. 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰The hair the everything could we pluck him out? Spray dust him with a little tinge of blue gilslittle for angel Crawly and stick him somewhere man. Apart the have to be presented in season 3 0:12
I adore it, sometimes I listen to it more than once a day! I'm pretty sure that David tried to imitate (maybe subconsciously) Michael while reading Aziraphale, you can hear Michael's pattern sometimes and I love it, but today I realized that we need this scene read by both David and Michael and Neil would be the narrator
Unfortunately, there isn't a full audiobook with him as narrator. The full cast one has him performing only the Crowley parts. Frankly, I thought the narrator in that version was quite dull. Another full audiobook is ready by one narrator, and he's pretty good.
@@letolethe3344i felt the same. while the narrator did remind me of god’s voice from the show, it’s not quite the one i wanted to listen to for hours and hours on end. i would have preferred a bit more personality, imagine if we could get neil himself to read it all with cast?
OK, hear me out... An audio book of Good Omens, read by David and Micheal taking turns between chapters. We get to hear both David's Aziraphale and Micheal's Crowley ❤
How many seconds in eternity? And the Shepherd's Boy says: There's this big mountain, see, a mile high, at the end of the universe. And once every thousand years, there's this little bird. And it flies, in a spaceship if you like, all the way to this mountain and sharpens its beak. Sharpens its beak on the mountain. And then it flies back. And after a thousand years, it goes and does it all over again. When the bird has worn the mountain down to nothing, then you still won't have finished watching "the Sound of Music". You might think that's a hell of a long time. Personally, I think that's a hell of a bird.
The answer to my current broken heart! How did I not know about this!!! And the audio book! Omg I’m so late in the fandom but after watching season 2 I’m so happy to have found this! Thank you!
I love this scene in the TV series, mostly because of how, when they force themselves to sober up, they repeatedly work their tongues with disgusted looks on their faces. Ever see a cat that's just been given medicine? That's what they look like. 😝😜😝
Michael Scott: “Don’t ever for any reason, do anything, to anyone, for any reason, ever, no matter what, no matter where, or who, or who you were with, or, where are you going,or , or where you’ve been, ever, for any reason whatsoever “ Crowley: (um, let me adjusted it) “My point…my…my point is my point is…my point is DOLPHINS” It remind me of the office 😂, have a good day and remember it’s just one week left.❤🎉
There is! 😀 There's several versions of the audiobook, the older I think it was a radio drama. But the most recent is the audiobook with all the actor's voices!! ❤
the way he switches between accents is so pleasing to listen to
His impression of Michael is astonishingly accurate :D
it's like he's channeling him xD
especially at 8:09. i keep replaying this part
Isn't it though? I thought the same thing.

Nothing will ever convince me that Pratchett and Gaimann wrote this part of the book sober
It's a very accurate drunken dialogue
They had that exact conversation

Pratchett was very good at writing drunken dialogue. The beginning of "Guards! Guards!" is a prime example.
Aziraphale being so pedantic over the bird and mountain story gives me LIFE 😂
Man I wish the whole scene was in the show... There are so SO many good bits.
Also, David's impression of Michael is at times uncanny.
The way he delivered it was so on point, the pauses, speed, and all that, awesome

He must be the _best_ at reading good night stories to his kids. No "do the voice!" needed. Naturally, he will Do The Voice!
It is the way David makes sure to mimic Michael when quoting Aziraphale - because that is HIS angel, that is his Aziraphale 🥺
Still devastated that this whole entire scene wasn't in the tv series
right 😢
I thought they did part of the scene in the tv series? At least the “My point is… My point is… DOLPHINS!”
@@mstickney6612 Yes, most of it was, but the bit about the bird sharpening it's beak was omitted.
This really is a delightful impression of Sheen lol
Sheen and Tennant are this generations McKellen and Stewart
Yes!
You, my good sir, are Absolutely right
Omg yes!!!!
Couldn’t agree more!
When I listened to this bit on the audiobook I was doubled over with laughter.. I was so sorry they didn't put the part about the bird in the show
They sort of did.
Probably didn’t want too many people thinking about a TARDIS.
They did but in the animated intro
His impressions of Michael's Aziraphale are eerily spot on 😂
I applaud this man and his narrating, especially speaking as Michael's Aziraphale lmao
I could listen to that gorgeous voice all damn day...
Also DOLPHINS. 🐬
That's my point.
Big brains the size of... Size of... Damn big brains.
And the whales! Brain city, whales! 🐳
And last but not least...
The KRAKEN. 🐙
Biiiiiiiggg buggerrrr!
The way Michael Sheen says "biig bugger" to describe the kraken in the show has me die
@@soggyfritter Hahhaha me too!
Crowley will always be David in my head after his amazing performance in the show.
I love David Tennant's voice.
'Bloody great seaweeds' and '......................... That's birds??' are tied for my favourite line, i think.
Everytime Crowley says the word ‘point’ take a shot
You’ll be as wasted as these two within a minute
oh his impression of aziraphale is spot on my goodness
for couple of times, I thought Michael Sheen was really in the room as well, and then I remembered, it was David all along lol
i love xerophile and cruelly, according to the captions at least.
I know theres the cast version of the audio book but holy hell i wish we could just have an entire version voiced by david tennant 🙈
greatly upset that they cut the whole bird sequence out of the show
"That's birds." Is brilliant.

Well, Good Omens is older than Wee Free Men ;)
it's a reference to a brother's grimm story "the shephards boy"
It's an olddd story
I would have thought Michael Sheen was reading Azirphale's words if I was just listening to this with no context.
David Tennant is simply brilliant.
I love this scene in the TV series, mostly because of how, when they force themselves to sober up, they repeatedly work their tongues with disgusted looks on their faces. Ever see a cat that's just been given medicine? That's what they look like. 😝😜😝
Kinda funny how the first time I heard about the bird thing was from a Doctor two regenerations on from Tennant. Odd coincidence
Me too. Heaven Sent was the title. I think Moffett was a Good Omens fan. He may have used it deliberately.
Michael Scott: “Don’t ever for any reason, do anything, to anyone, for any reason, ever, no matter what, no matter where, or who, or who you were with, or, where are you going,or , or where you’ve been, ever, for any reason whatsoever “

It's "Poly..Poli...bloody big seaweed" in the book and "Boui..boo..fish stew" in the tv show.
