I hope he does a part two! *any* opportunity to hear him parody from the lightning thief musical gets me excited. It's probably too obscure for him to do a parody mash up (like with Hamilton) but even one quarentine parody will satisfy me.
@Corona Crew I do all the lighting in my high school theatre and school was canceled the week of performance, what a waste of planning and setting up lights
Noah Salo : he was in the Rocky Horror Picture Show In summer local theater last year or recent years. Was a lot of time and work. You can look it up in their videos. Oh - and it looked like he did awesome from what I could tell. Looked like a perfect characterization.
I love how he did Wicked and laughed at himself even though he couldn't totally hit the endnotes. It was exceedingly funny; better than if he'd hit them with no trouble.
Memory. I'm having a memory. When everything was okay. Now we all stay inside. If you touch me, you will remember what happiness is. Let the memories live again.
We've been loving the Quarantine content. Your channel is part of our evening ritual now. I work from home and my wife works at a distillery that is now making sanitizer for the community, hospitals and first responders. Thanks for bringing the laughs into our lives.
Hey Penn, I'm a certified speech therapist, and a comedic theatre director, and a mom. Speaking on behalf of all my monikers, if you end up with vocal nodules, It'll be a total shame. Please tell me you're practicing good vocal hygiene to protect and honor that hugely talented vocal tract of yours... and if you end up with vocal strain I'll give you therapy for free as long as you keep providing the world with this level of amazing product. Great team you and yours- keep it up (and be kind to your vocal cords!).
You should do a part 2 of this because there are so many other Broadway musicals like Beetlejucie, Hadestown, Six, Be More Chill, Waitress, and so many more.
Hats off for even attempting defying gravity. Even more hats off for almost pulling it off. Been binging your channel and have to say you make me laugh so hard sometimes.
Dear Holderness Family - besides a quick note that my family absolutely LOVES and adores you, I'm writing to you today with a special request. I work for the headquarters of a retirement company here in beautiful Orlando, FL [yes, sunshine greetings to Kim!]. As you might know, seniors in retirement communities are experiencing different and far more reaching levels of social isolation. Knowing your epic work, I'm putting together all my courage to ask you for an Elvis Presley parody to show appreciation for the most amazing, wonderful generation of people who are stuck in their apartments and might need some encouragement in discovering the endless wonders of TH-cam. Penn' parody talent will surely appeal to our biggest Elvis fans. It would lift their spirits and make their day - for many days, weeks and months to come. Covid has changed out lives, but incomparably so for the older generation who has experienced the Great Depression, the World War II and the Cold War, among many other crisis, such as reusable diapers, canned Spam, absence of epidural and AC, but plenty of washboards and actual hands-on farming. What do you say? Anything on Elvis with how all days have that Groundhog day feel? Blues? Anxiety-inducing news? Having seen it all and staying strong, knowing the Great Generation can beat it at the age of 85 or 97? Elvis comeback to support his biggest fans?! Please. This is history in making. I work from home now and none of my daily work deserves going into history, but their experience of this mess does. Happy to provide more details, such as the name of my company, if you agree. With love, Olga Y. King
Thanks for making me laugh. So clever! Shared this with my 94 yr old Mom, a veteran singer and actress now hunkered down in Rocky Mount, NC. She loved it!! Great work.
Okay, that was AWESOME! I hope Penn took a break from singing for a couple of days to soothe the damage done in Wicked song. Thanks for the laughs! I'm here in mid-Jan 2023.
I LOVE all of your parodies!! I teach 11th grade US History and often show MrBetts US History Parody videos...I am sharing many of your families with my students during "remote learning," just to lift them up!! Thank you for putting smiles on many faces!!!
"Put down that knitting , that book and the broom ... You've swept the floor thrice today .. I've got a Cabernet ol' chum. . " LOL OMG THANK YOU for this!!!! You make quarantine so much better !!! #TheatreGeek
I found you guys on the vlogs channel first, and I'm completely in love with your content. All of it. More people need to know about you. I wish I could share this video with all my friends, but I'm the only one who knows English. Please add Portuguese-Brazilian subtitles and I'll share your videos with everybody here. Please keep up with your excellent work. I wish you guys all the success in the world
Peggy Harris aw you’re Kim’s mom? I love her (well the whole family but since I’m a mom I relate mostly to her). My 8 year old subscribed. He told me yesterday. And he dances and sings to their songs. Stay safe
People have said Penn needs a record deal, which I agree with! But you know what this channel and family really deserves? A TH-cam One Million Subscriber Plaque, and a TH-cam Streamys Award Win! ❤️
I love this, especially because I was supposed to be doing Grease with my local theater group and we are very theater geeky 😂 . We're all so sad missing it so I sent this to our group chat and there all laughing. Thanks for being amazing
Most of us are theatre kids, and I personally have grown up in a house just filled with music, dad plays piano, guitar, sings, and plays the drums. My mom is a vocal teacher! Love this! Keep up the great work!
YAAAAAAASSSSSSS!!!!!! This is great! I love Broadway shows. This was amazing. You guys are helping me so much. All the corona was stressing me out, (with all the work and not knowing when we will leave) this is helping me a lot. Great singing Penn! These were great choices!
you guys should do a parody when quentin is over of for their first time in forever from frozen it could start like. The playground is open sonos that store sorry it otto corrected me
i givbe him 2 thumbs up an a standing ovation for TRYING on the last one and FOLLOWING through EVEN if eh was cracking so badly. his poor throat!! BRAVO BRAVO!!! THROW ALL THE ROSES
Thank you so much for your songs and videos. Not only are they entertaining they give me hope. I am a very non-traditional accounting student and in my former life, I was somewhat artistic. I have a feeling that you both are in accounting or management but you still embrace your creative and artistic natures. I had doubts I could embrace both sides of my nature, but you give me hope. Thank you.
Awesome! Love the dramatic gestures and use of props ☺️☺️☺️please Do a another musical medley, with ‘It’s a Hard Knock Life,’ (Annie), ‘Popular’ (Wicked), Lion King opening song, Hakuna Matata, Aladdin (Prince Ali, or Friend Like Me), ☺️☺️☺️☺️
Penn, you did AWESOMELY GREAT!!--my spouse came in here and said 'who is that singing? He has a wonderful voice!' (not kidding) you guys ALWAYS do a fantastic job, THANK YOU!!
Such a talented voice! Love the humor during Corona-borealis. Lost my Mother, my job and can't see my Grandkids...all within 2 months... Thank you for the smiles 🙏
Omg. These should so be made into a compilation. You are awesome Penn, and the songs your family's on are awesome too! You guys are so funny and have been the comic relief ive needed. Thank you for sharing your creativity.
So I'm literally so bored that my older sister and I made a giant theatre with a working curtain in Minecraft so that we can perform our musicals in Minecraft 🤗
@@stephaniewade5840 I used Normal pistons, redstone, a lever at each end of the pistons, and then I stacked Red Concrete Powder on top of that. When it's time to close the curtain, you just pull the levers and the powder will fall down. It also helps to dig a large pit at the bottom that also has levers and pistons that can open and close the gap so that you can open the curtain. I hope your daughter enjoys!
Love the Holderness family! Those who gave this a thumbs down, get real! Penn, Kudos for using thrice in a parody! I would love to hear the original artist do the parodies with you! You and your family have spread so much joy when so many need some ! Thank you! One wonders what goes on in your mind to think of these songs though. :)
Thank you for this! I'm a nurse and it stinks working during the pandemic right now. I think everyone is at that point and your lyrics are spot on. I need that laugh today.
I think it is funnier having a melt down at the end. If you aren’t in musical theater, you should be. I have been binge watching these and this is one of my favs.
After this performance by your assistant she needs a great pay raise. The timing is perfect on her delivering of the props you needed. You put your heart and soul into these and it shows. Hope you don't have a hernia, I would mess these feel good videos.
I think all us theater kids really needed this
Yea! Our summer shows were cancelled and we are all crying
I hope he does a part two! *any* opportunity to hear him parody from the lightning thief musical gets me excited. It's probably too obscure for him to do a parody mash up (like with Hamilton) but even one quarentine parody will satisfy me.
@Corona Crew I do all the lighting in my high school theatre and school was canceled the week of performance, what a waste of planning and setting up lights
@Eleanor Draws yeah i did. Have u?
Eleanor Draws I got casted Annie in Annie jr and it was canceled, so I feel you
If Penn doesn’t do musical theatre on the side it’s a travesty to humanity.
Noah Salo : he was in the Rocky Horror Picture Show In summer local theater last year or recent years. Was a lot of time and work. You can look it up in their videos. Oh - and it looked like he did awesome from what I could tell. Looked like a perfect characterization.
He would need to sing without auto-tune.
TypicalRybaby : he can sing without auto tune - very well! 😁
So true, especially wicked.
Mandem has a lot of talent
I’ve been waiting for Dear Evan Hansen and Wicked! Did not disappoint 👏👏👏
They just did it in this video
me too those are my favorite.
@@troykopczykno duh really! Listen to his comment
I love how he did Wicked and laughed at himself even though he couldn't totally hit the endnotes. It was exceedingly funny; better than if he'd hit them with no trouble.
They had a missed opportunity to sing “Hard Knock life”. Not mad though.
Whitney Ballard oh I’m so sorry
Now waiting for the rock songs in quarantine segment
Enter Sandman!
Smells like quarantine spirit
"Sounds of silence" by Disturbed
“Come out and play”
PLEASE
As a massive theatre kid, I love this.
Me too
same
Same here!!
Sameee
Fander Pander Were is the theatre kids at???? ME!!!!
Memory.
I'm having a memory.
When everything was okay.
Now we all stay inside.
If you touch me, you will remember what happiness is.
Let the memories live again.
Omg yas!!!!
:)
Memory I’m having a memory of playing with my friends but we can’t do that I remember the time I went to school every month let the memory
live again
That was just...
everything I've ever needed and more...

My singing ability can be described as that last line “unintelligible screaming” 😂
You should do a part 2 of this because there are so many other Broadway musicals like Beetlejucie, Hadestown, Six, Be More Chill, Waitress, and so many more.
I love Be More Chill sooo much 🥰
beetlejuice
Beetlejuice!
BEETLEJUICE!!!
Six!
Waitress isn't in Broadway anymore 😩😩
Majestic Mary I think they just did songs from musicals that were on Broadway.
Hats off for even attempting defying gravity. Even more hats off for almost pulling it off. Been binging your channel and have to say you make me laugh so hard sometimes.
He autotuned it
You should do a Broadway part two and so a song from “beautiful: the carol king musical”
Andrea Roberts and hairspray
Or some Heathers
**unintelligible screaming**
If that's not a mood!
You're so right! If that's not a mood these days, what is?! 🤔😂
The unintelligible screaming 0art was so funny. Im dying 😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Lol, I thought it was intentional at first, and that just broke me! 😂😂😂
I'm an ex-Equity stage manger. You got some pipes, kid. I'm impressed. And thank you.
Penn does a really great job at singing in these videos, but can we just appreciate Kim helping him with all the wardrobe changes!
"Judging through the window" is my new life soundtrack
This is the perfect example of what’s happening right now
Oxalis_11 Oh LOL, I am a huge theatre kid so... love this.
Who's a holderness Family fan since "Where's my I Phone?", too?
Way before that. But that was a good one😉
Bibi B. und Tina Fan #Strahler That only came out 4 months ago, you know that right?
Me😂
ME!
Me
4:40 You Nailed that high note🔝🎶 Penn. 👏🏻
IT WAS AUTOTUNED
Lol
@James Rehan Do you see anyone caring?
The way Penn hits the high notes I be like DANGGGGG
IT WAS AUTOTUNED
the whole time i was waiting for Dear Evan Hanson, as soon as she started wrapping Penns arm i screamed,"DEAR EVAN HANSON!!!!!!!!!"
That was the best ending to defying gravity I've ever seen 😂😂😂
As a musical theater nerd, I love this!! I like how you put in Cabaret. That’s not a real well known one!
OMG, when he says C’mon during Cabaret. 😂
PENN: I know what will cheer people up! Broadway tunes!
EVERYONE: huh. HE’S RIGHT!!! 😁😂😂😂

Hahahahaha!!!!!!! This made my day! My favorite was the Hamilton and Dear Even Hanson.
Yes! Thanks for doing this! MASSIVE theatre kid!
Penn, omg this really showcases how awesome of a singer you are! Love this.
Okay, that was AWESOME! I hope Penn took a break from singing for a couple of days to soothe the damage done in Wicked song. Thanks for the laughs! I'm here in mid-Jan 2023.
My daughter's wedding trip was to NY to cram in as many shows as they could see. About to forward this to her.
Great job! 👏👏
Lucky you could see live shows Victoria Australia has been in hard lockdown 7 times in 18 months

You did all the musicals I know
Those are the only ones? You poor unfortunate soul.
@@ozziehall779 no i know alot more but they jost did those wich i hapen to now all
@@ozziehall779 ... Is that an Ursula reference? Nicely done. Kinda works on a couple levels.
I only knew one and that les misrables
BRAVO BRAVO!!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 ENCORE ENCORE!!! (Phantom, Hello Dolly, Book of Mormon, Les Miz, Mean Girls...the list is endless and you are a STAR!!! ⭐️)
The wicked one is too relatable😂😂

I was hoping to launch a professional acting career this year so massively miffed Covid has messed it up
Most of us are theatre kids, and I personally have grown up in a house just filled with music, dad plays piano, guitar, sings, and plays the drums. My mom is a vocal teacher! Love this! Keep up the great work!
The wigs just killed me 😂
Bravo!!!! Bravo!!!!! Bravo!!!! Penn gets a standing ovation and brings the house down!!!! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
YAAAAAAASSSSSSS!!!!!! This is great! I love Broadway shows. This was amazing. You guys are helping me so much. All the corona was stressing me out, (with all the work and not knowing when we will leave) this is helping me a lot. Great singing Penn! These were great choices!
This GREAT!! Funny, true, and uplifting!!
Thank you, Holderness Family!❤️
This made me very happy
It also doubled my list of Broadway shows I need to see 😂
These are all very good musicals! You should try them out!
God Bless all of those that have entertained us with music during these trying times. Thank You.
Idina Menzel should see this!😂 (At least the Wicked part)
You guys are FABULOUS! You are entertaining thousands, possibly millions, of people, and helping us to cope with the pandemic. Thank you so much!
you guys should do a parody when quentin is over of for their first time in forever from frozen it could start like. The playground is open sonos that store sorry it otto corrected me
Who knew Penn could scream in key? Great job as always, guys! I hope the hernia is healing nicely.
Those high "I might" notes on the "anxiety" Wicked lines were impressive!
It was AUTOTUNED
@@jamesrehan9969 IDC; the falsetto was still impressive
Head voice/falsetto, not autotune. Kinder to his vocal chords than the belting at the end.
i givbe him 2 thumbs up an a standing ovation for TRYING on the last one and FOLLOWING through EVEN if eh was cracking so badly. his poor throat!! BRAVO BRAVO!!! THROW ALL THE ROSES
Nothing gives off quite as chaotic energy as Penn calling his wife "old chum."

As well as sincerely me or guns and ships
Funny! "Judging from a Window"! 😂 Guilty of doing just that! bahahaha! BRAVO! Defying Gravity was spectacular!
Love this!!! All your songs are keeping me going through this lockdown
I so needed this today - thank you so much Holderness family! You are so talented...Made me smile BIG!
Love this so much! Get him on broadway cause this made my day😂😍
He autotuned tho!
Penn, you did AWESOMELY GREAT!!--my spouse came in here and said 'who is that singing? He has a wonderful voice!' (not kidding) you guys ALWAYS do a fantastic job, THANK YOU!!
I've watched this 6 times. All I want is another broadway one
You may have hurt yourself at the end but it was bloody worth it! Absolutely terrific and loved the props. Thanks for the cheer up.
This is literally the best one the HAVE EVER made!!!!
You go!!!!! This was my favorite yet!!!! I want a musical version part two please!!!!!
Wicked was too relatable.
I also like how I he made it into a screamo song 🤣
Gabriela Sophia Never seen it, now I want to!
You mean like Idina does to every song?
@@achanwahn well sometimes. Not every
Such a talented voice! Love the humor during Corona-borealis. Lost my Mother, my job and can't see my Grandkids...all within 2 months...
Thank you for the smiles 🙏
I haven't even seen most of these but I love this 😂
Omg. These should so be made into a compilation. You are awesome Penn, and the songs your family's on are awesome too! You guys are so funny and have been the comic relief ive needed. Thank you for sharing your creativity.
I love those musicals! We were gonna see Wicked!! Too bad they got canceled.......
I love Wicked
Have you seen any other shows?
Yeah I’ve seen Hamilton, phantom of the opera, newsies, Annie, waitress, and some others
I'm no one important, just an old grandma lady, but you made my day today!... Thank you, keep up the good work...
So I'm literally so bored that my older sister and I made a giant theatre with a working curtain in Minecraft so that we can perform our musicals in Minecraft 🤗
I think this is amazing. How did you make a working curtain? I'm not super Minecraft savvy but I think my daughter would love making a stage.
@@stephaniewade5840 I used Normal pistons, redstone, a lever at each end of the pistons, and then I stacked Red Concrete Powder on top of that. When it's time to close the curtain, you just pull the levers and the powder will fall down.

BRILLIANT!!! I didn’t want it to stop lol! Thanks for all of your hard work in keeping everyone else sane!!!❤️❤️
This funny it made my birthday today ❤️❤️
Happy birthday!
Jeanette Bjerrum thanks
Happy Birthday Bethany Pryor !!! Have a great day !
happy birthday Bethany!!
bethany pryor happy birthday x
I need a full version of the wicked anxiety song😆
In first in the UK!
The **UNINTELLIGIBLE SCREAMING** at the end of the video! 😅❤ HANG IN THERE, Penn! 😅 ❤
21st like and 8 th comment i love you guys.
Love the Holderness family! Those who gave this a thumbs down, get real! Penn, Kudos for using thrice in a parody! I would love to hear the original artist do the parodies with you! You and your family have spread so much joy when so many need some ! Thank you! One wonders what goes on in your mind to think of these songs though. :)
Some of the comments are as funny as your parodies!
Someone asked whether any
"board way" songs are being written now? LOL No probably
not!
Thank you, some days as Mechanical Engineer can be very stressful and these several videos have made it significantly brighter! Stay safe and be well.
*massive applause* GO PEN!!!! You gave it your all and it was awesome! More Broadway and Disney parodies would be epic!!! Bravo!
I feel called out by this 😂 how did you know @The Holderness Family that this what I was doing during this quarantine? Lol great work!!!!
Okay, this tops all other Holderness performances!! Thanks for the entertainment.
It was FANTASTIC. The whole thing. Loved it. Seriously.
Thank you for this! I'm a nurse and it stinks working during the pandemic right now. I think everyone is at that point and your lyrics are spot on. I need that laugh today.
Love it! Thanks for the captions as usual, and for identifying the productions the songs come from.
I think it is funnier having a melt down at the end. If you aren’t in musical theater, you should be. I have been binge watching these and this is one of my favs.
Okay but the wicked one killed me
Love everything about this!!!!!!! Please consider a part 2 including a Phantom reference cause its too good of an opportunity to miss it!
That was so awesome!! Might be the best so far. Keep it up guys, you're really helping to cheer us all up! God bless!
You are so Awesome!!! Thank you for doing these videos!
Dear Evan Hansan, Hamilton and Wicked were ON POINT. You nailed that high note in defying gravity.
After this performance by your assistant she needs a great pay raise. The timing is perfect on her delivering of the props you needed. You put your heart and soul into these and it shows. Hope you don't have a hernia, I would mess these feel good videos.
I knew Penn had a good voice, but I had no idea that it was THIS GOOD!!!!
Absolutely great! Loved the ending, you just needed to let go of the anxiety and go for the note! Well done!
Bravo,encore ..!:) I hope all this gets wrapped into a future dvd special.. if that is even a thing any more😄✨🎄❄️⭐️
