  • Anyone familiar with 'The History Boys,' the 2006 movie of Alan Bennett's acclaimed play, will remember Jamie Parker as Scripps, the piano-playing, church-going student. Here he is nearly ten years later, proving to be a superb singer, and delighting the 5,000-strong audience at London's Royal Albert Hall in a 2015 Prom entitled "Late Night Sinatra." The equally wonderful John Wilson Orchestra provides the brilliant accompaniment, namely Billy May's terrific arrangement of Irving Berlin's "Cheek to Cheek.'
    NOTE: the entire concert has been issued on DVD! ('Warner Classics' Catalogue No. 2564602844). Don't miss it!
    From the same concert, Jamie sang "I Won't Dance" ...

    Heaven, I'm in heaven
    And my heart beats so that I can hardly speak
    And I seem to find the happiness I seek
    When we're out together, dancing cheek to cheek
    Heaven, I'm in heaven
    And the cares that hung around me through the week
    Seems to vanish like a gambler's lucky streak
    When we're out together, dancing cheek to cheek
    Oh I'd love to climb the mountain
    And reach the highest peak
    But it doesn't thrill me half as much
    As dancing cheek to cheek
    Oh, I'd love to go out fishing
    In a river or a creek
    But I don't enjoy it half as much
    As dancing cheek to cheek
    Dance with me
    I want my arms about you
    The charms about you
    Will carry me through
    TO heaven, I'm in heaven
    And my heart beats so that I can hardly speak
    And I seem to find the/that happiness I seek
    When we're out together, SWING cheek to cheek

    wow what a tremendous voice, the next Sinatra, one fault he must look at his audience not the heavens, rapport Jamie its what Sinatra had in spades, get it and you are a STAR. BIG TIME

      He was indeed looking at his audience - and a vast one it was! ... You clearly aren't familiar with the enormous oval-shaped Royal Albert Hall in London. It can't be compared to some night club as It seats 5,000 people and in addition to those standing in the arena, there are stalls all around the sides. Behind them are the boxes and above them are the front circle and then the rear circle. Right at the top, all the way round the uppermost part of the hall, is the gallery and people stand up there too. Just above them are the lights, so when you say he must look at his audience, that was precisely what he was doing, singing to all those folks standing near the dome of the hall, as well as to those in the seats down below. And yes, he is a star, big time!

      @@adam28xx Only just seen your above comments. I have actually been to the Royal Albert Hall, several times. I take the point about the seats being up to the roof almost, and that he is including all the audience. I just think he does that too much, just picking one member of the audience out and PRETENDING to sing to them is a technique that i have heard explained by several show business old hands, especially regarding Mr. Sinatra, who, you will agree was rather good at singing.

      And very well too! .... I've uploaded him singing these other songs from the same concert, so check them out: I Won't Dance; From This Moment On; If I Had You; and the Guys and Dolls duet with Seth MacFarlane of 'Family Man.' All absolutely superb!
