+Padapwns Since the first time I saw "Insurrection", I've loved how Worf just shakes his head after Picard says that line to him. According to Memory Alpha website, one the second verse, Picard mistakenly sang "Heart" instead of "Foot". I don't know if it is true as it has been a long while since I saw it.
For anyone wondering about the AIDA joke - it is in reference to an Auckland outdoor production of the opera in the 1990s, where many audience members couldn’t see the stage - “not much to look at”. It was major news at the time so the audience really enjoyed the line as you can hear in the video.
I've seen over a hundred productions of Pinafore in the last 50 years, and never seen this. "A British Tar" is my default ring tone. Possibly the perfect trio. This is f'ing brilliant. Need the whole production. THIS is the whimsical air that G&S strived for - a lovely, LOVELY twist. Thumbs up for posting this. This is the "East Villiage Opera Company" version of G&S...
@@lokibottleoff9550 since everything involving Patrick Stewart always gets the nr 1 spot it is not really fair to say "the second best" and it is a bit long to say "my favorite after the Patrick Stewart version"
When I was a small kid in the 90s, I would watch your musicals on repeat with my dad. I seem to remember that he even took me to see one live once. I thought Jon English’s purple pants in Pirates were the coolest thing. As an adult on my 30s, I still find copies online and enjoy watching them from time to time. Such a comfort. They’re really happy memories for me 😊
For all the people saying Gilbert and Sullivan wouldn't like this, I'm surprised you were all close personal friends and knew exactly what they liked and disliked
I did. As a kid. A year later, saw English in something else. Got on the lift and so did English and my mum said, embarrassingly, “sir, you stink.” He said “so would you if you were plonking about on stage all night.” God love him!
A friend of mine is a former Commander of Engineers in RN - mostly fixed helicopters, never really got his feet wet ! - Stay close to your desks, and never go to sea, and you all may be the rulers of the Queen's Navy !
[Verse 1: Ralph, Boatswain and Carpenter together] A British tar is a soaring soul, As free as a mountain bird, His energetic fist should be ready to resist A dictatorial word. [Chorus] (Ralph, Boatswain and Carpenter singing a round) His nose should pant, And his lip should curl, His cheeks should flame, And his brow should furl, His bosom should heave, And his heart should glow, And his fist be ever ready for a knock-down blow. (Ralph, Boatswain and Carpenter together, much faster now) His nose should pant, And his lip should curl, His cheeks should flame, And his brow should furl, His bosom should heave, And his heart should glow, And his fist be ever ready for a knock-down blow. [Verse 2: Ralph, Boatswain and Carpenter together] His eyes should flash with an inborn fire, His brow with scorn be wrung; He never should bow down to a domineering frown, Or the tang of a tyrant tongue. [Chorus] (Ralph, Boatswain and Carpenter singing a round) His foot should stamp, And his throat should growl, His hair should twirl, And his face should scowl; His eyes should flash, And his breast protrude, And this should be his customary attitude. (Ralph, Boatswain and Carpenter together, much faster now) His foot should stamp, And his throat should growl, His hair should twirl, And his face should scowl; His eyes should flash, And his breast protrude, And this should be his customary attitude, [Coda] His attitude, His attitude, His attitude!
Not so sure. From what I understand they were very particular about every single detail and had very little tolerance for changes not made by themselves. Personally I find it rather ridiculous to be concerned with changes to a medium meant to be performed live as there will always be changes made to compensate for problems that come up.
I would count as a traditionalist, I'm pretty sure; and I hate changes and "updates" which I think are just the director trying to put his personal stamp on a show. But I like this, it's very sexy.
Picard: Mr Worf, do you know Gilbert and Sullivan? Worf: Sorry Sir I haven't had a chance to meet all the new crew members since my return. Picard: Their composers Worf.
Probably because that's not where the songs ends originally; it's just the end of the first verse. A lot of G&S fans in the audience were probably expecting it to go into the chorus. Essgee didn't hesitate to take lots of liberties.
Its too bad and to the disservice of new theatre-goers (new audiences) more theatre companies are not revising some of these old classics. Lucky for me, my dad was a Gilbert and Sullivan fan and made sure I saw a few G&S productions.
It's been a while since I last saw it. Maybe it didn't make as much of an impression on me as Christopher Plummer in the role of a Klingon officer quoting To Be or Not To Be "in the original Klingon"!
Well good on ye, cobber, if the Admiral's daughter fancies an Ozzie tenor in the British Navy ! But then we'd have to rename it the HMAS Pinafore, and that's not fair dinkum, probably a bit of dag.. I reckon we'll just get another tube out of the Esky and go on down to Penzance and hang out with the pirates there - they're always good for a bottle of sherry, lol !
Can anyone tell me what he says at 2:17? To me it sounds like "It's all a bit I eat her." I know that's not right but that's what it sounds like to me.
+Rosemary Paul "It's all a bit Aida, innit? Beautifully sung, but ultimately not much to look at." He's referring to the musical Aida by Elton John. It's a...unique musical, but a pretty boring show overall. It's a musical joke, and not in the original script, but it gets a good response.
+Nathan Johnson "You got it, bosun, but it's still a bit Three Tenors....expensive but pointless." :) Marvelous take on a classic. Pity so many of the people offering responses here only know if it through Star Trek...but, hey, they know of it. It's about the only Shakespeare they got during their lives as well ;)
I believe the gentleman concerned is from the South West of England, probably Plymouth ! Never fear, for I am fluent in Janner (Plymouth Dialect) though I was born in Torquay, brought up on Dartmoor (Tavistock!) and schooled in Plymouth - but actually of Birmingham, Yorkshire, and Welsh ancestry ! I also speak several languages fluently.. lol ! And my Grandad used to sing G & S in the old Palace Theatre, Union Street Plymouth - but I reckon that be a hundred year or more, oo aar ! Translations available - but that'll be costin ye a pint o proper Cornish scrumpy from Plymouth Barbican, and a proper pasty from Ivor Dewdney ! Proper job, as we say around here ! LOL !
"Worf, prepare the docking clamps!"
Sing Worf, SING!
OddjobHut no sir, i havent had tiime to meet all the new crewmen yet.

I'd give this performance a ten minute standing ovation.

Star Trek Insurrection brought me here.

My god, this is the song Sallah sang after he, Indy, and Marion parted ways.
that's what brought me here
Bad dates
he also sings i am the monarch of the sea when he sees the dead monkey.
Sing, Worf! Sing!
For anyone who may not know. This is an Australian Cast, and the lead male is Called Jon English.
For all the people saying Gilbert and Sullivan wouldn't like this, I'm surprised you were all close personal friends and knew exactly what they liked and disliked
1:15 - 2:02 is some of the best singing I've ever heard from a male trio!
A testament to their talent. They are bloody good singers and they have to make themselves come across absolutely terrible
"Three tenors... expensive, but pointless" 😂
SING WORF; SING!!!!!
1:41 Picard: “Sing Worf Sing!”
Worf : 🙁 no no no
Wonderful trio then a whole lot of fun and energy, who could ask for more!
God, I would love to be able to see THIS production.
Cast: Sir Patrick Stewart, Brent Spiner and Michael Dorn.
I did. As a kid. A year later, saw English in something else. Got on the lift and so did English and my mum said, embarrassingly, “sir, you stink.” He said “so would you if you were plonking about on stage all night.” God love him!

Sing Worf, sing

No. Klingons Do Not Sing.

For me as a Trekkie, the vest version is at "Insurrection"
I like how he breaks the 4th wall and roasts the conductor.
And vice versa in the other two
Whatever brings you to Gilbert & Sullivan, I'm okay with.
Picard: "Worf, do you know Gilbert & Sullivan?"
Worf "I'm sorry captain. I haven't met all the crew."
@@saryphx from the 19th century
I now have an irresistible compulsion to watch ST: Insurrection
^^
Worf is one of the most awesome characters ever .
Sing Worf, SING!

As free as a mountain bird,

And his lip should curl,
His cheeks should flame,
And his brow should furl,
His bosom should heave,
And his heart should glow,

His brow with scorn be wrung;

His foot should stamp,
And his throat should growl,
His hair should twirl,
And his face should scowl;
His eyes should flash,
And his breast protrude,
And this should be his customary attitude.

love the choreography !!!! and that cartwheel LOL great scene -
thanks for the whole thing - :D
Thumbs up if Data and Picard brought you here!
Hell yeah
and sideshow bob
For me it is the episode with the picard imposter
Their version is better!
West Wing
I see a lot of people whining about the edits and changes. I also prefer the original, but I think Gilbert and Sullivan would find this funny.
Not so sure. From what I understand they were very particular about every single detail and had very little tolerance for changes not made by themselves.

@@olstar18 certainly these Australian versions are great... Not sure if Gil and Sullivan would like them but they're full of fun
this is how it feels trying to convince traditionalists to change any damn thing about gilbert and sullivan

SING, WORF, SING!!!
I'm here from star trek insurrection and Indiana Jones
Indiana Jones?
@@tenhirankei Sallah sings part of it in Raiders of the Lost Ark.
Picard: Mr Worf, do you know Gilbert and Sullivan?
Worf: Sorry Sir I haven't had a chance to meet all the new crew members since my return.
Picard: Their composers Worf.
Wow; that's actually a really good performance for this bit.
So this is how he became the Pirate King
Being ex RN none of us ever looked that good, including the clubswinger and most of us couldn't hold a tune..
I have not had the chance to meet the new crew members since I've been back, Sir.
Which 2 buttons do you push on a Federation Shuttlecraft to bring up this sing a long?
What the hell!? I don't understand why people weren't clapping harder for that amazing trio.
Probably because that's not where the songs ends originally; it's just the end of the first verse. A lot of G&S fans in the audience were probably expecting it to go into the chorus. Essgee didn't hesitate to take lots of liberties.
I am impressed, and massively confused.
Watch the whole musical haha I would be in the same boat as you if I hadn’t
tumbs up if star trek brought you here ;)
If robot insurrection ensues, break glass and play this.
Damn! Bravo!
Raiders of the Lost Ark, anyone?
Way past stupendous! At last, the Way it s'posed to be! Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious. On steroids!
are you going to upload all of pinafore? would be awesome if you did :)
I liked these versions
Oh Essgee...

Its too bad and to the disservice of new theatre-goers (new audiences) more theatre companies are not revising some of these old classics. Lucky for me, my dad was a Gilbert and Sullivan fan and made sure I saw a few G&S productions.
Brilliant!
Did anyone ever notice the music leading up to them singing is the same tune as Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan?
It's been a while since I last saw it. Maybe it didn't make as much of an impression on me as Christopher Plummer in the role of a Klingon officer quoting To Be or Not To Be "in the original Klingon"!
I now understand why Worf didn't want to sing...
Simon Gallaher and Jon English (Aussie rock legend). Having fun. Show is from the mid 90's?
May of '97, NZ ^_^
I'm here because of star trek
Data, Worf and the Captain sings it better lol.
How to obtain British citizenship:
Great attitude
Data sent me here.
Well good on ye, cobber, if the Admiral's daughter fancies an Ozzie tenor in the British Navy ! But then we'd have to rename it the HMAS Pinafore, and that's not fair dinkum, probably a bit of dag.. I reckon we'll just get another tube out of the Esky and go on down to Penzance and hang out with the pirates there - they're always good for a bottle of sherry, lol !
If it was the HMAS Pinafore, we'd have to stock it full of Bundy Rum - not God's Own Pussers, lol !
Dr
Anyone here from Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny?
Yes. It's a callback to Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981).
That was good
🤣 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Star Trek brought me here. Thanks Obama
And Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981), too. It's the same movie studio, Paramount Pictures.
Can anyone tell me what he says at 2:17? To me it sounds like "It's all a bit I eat her." I know that's not right but that's what it sounds like to me.
DWP It's all a bit _Aida_ which is an opera by Verdi.
Thank you! I never would have known!
Be honest, you're here because of star trek or Indiana Jones.
You're right. I'm here because of Data hahahaha
Star trek 2 melody prelude
Wow, Didnt Know Jon English died in 2016. That's a Shame
