02 Jellicle Songs for Jellicle Cats (1998 Film Cast)

[@kryptonianpowers]

*Interesting fact:* the word "Jellicle" actually came from T.S. Eliot's niece when she tried to say "dear little cat."

[@beaux_boba]

Dang, thats actually kinda cool!

[@mackenzielyon2512]

And “Pollicle” comes from when his niece tried to say “poor little dog”.

[@DontCallMeEdith]

I assumed it had something to do with the word angelical, with whole theme of ascending to a different layer

[@bluerisk]

@@mackenzielyon2512 There is no such thing. This is cat territory.

[@ajsdfidsbifsf]

awwwwwww

[@sabrinadelosreyes2010]

the real crime isn't macavity kidnapping old deutoronomy, it's this soundtrack not being on spotify

[@driftersforge4962]

Damn straight

[@caitlinwickner3528]

Couldn’t agree more. By far, the best cast/production

[@eviemuir4521]

I wholeheartedly agree

[@sailorathena17]

Not having it on Apple Music is a shame too

[@Izzy_Gyrl]

The best version of the show in my opinion. I wish they would make this an official album!!!

[@javieralbadalejo6354]

Agreed. Never understood why the 1998 film never got a studio OST, because by damn it's got the best arrangements. You can easily rip the movie as music and all, but it's not the same.

[@evelynkanitz5127]

Ditto!

[@lani_definitely]

I know it suuuucks, honestly I just wish they would put these clips in an mp3 platform on a music app. Would be easier to listen to them on a commute, and costs less data.

[@tjburge6544]

But they made so many cuts in that version.

[@MahoganyCrafter]

@@javieralbadalejo6354 They recorded one. That was actually the first thing they did in production. They planned on releasing it, but never did. Guarantee they still have it somewhere

[@m.s.7756]

when I was about 7 years old, I had the VHS tape of this show, and I am not exaggerating when I say my biggest ambition in life for many years going forward was to perform this song onstage (a dream which has still yet to be realized :/ )

[@kryptonianpowers]

If your school has a glee club, convince them to perform this.

[@adriannawelch7670]

I first saw this musical on my mother's collectors edition dvd when I was three (I am thirteen) and I still love it

I have to admit, usually when I watch things on the TV I get distracted and start doing something on my phone with the TV in the background. Whenever I watch this I get completely engrossed in it and my phone ends up being the thing in the background. I love this so much!

[@elodie_camcorder]

oh boi. Theres another musical I'll be obsessed with.

[@pepper6908]

Right? After Hamilton I thought I was done, but then there was Newsies. I was determined that I wouldn't fall in love with anything else after that but then came In the Heights. And now this?

Lyrics Are you blind when you're born? Can you see in the dark? Dare you look look at a king? Would you sit on his throne? Can you say of your bite that it's worse than your bark? Are you c of the walk when you're walking alone? When you fall on your head, do you land on your feet? Are you tense when you sense there's a storm in the air? Can you find your way blind when you're lost in the street? Do you know how to go to the heaviside layer? Because jellicles can and jellicles do Jellicles do and jellicles can Jellicles can and jellicles do Jellicles do and jellicles can Jellicles can and jellicles do Can you ride on a broomstick to places far distant? Familiar with candle, with book, and with bell? Were you Whittington's friend? The Pied Piper's assistant? Have you been an alumnus of heaven and hell? Are you mean like a minx? Are you lean like a lynx? Are you keen to be seen when you're smelling a rat? Were you there when the pharoahs commissioned the Sphinx? If you were, and you are, you're a jellicle cat Jellicle songs for jelllicle cats Jellicle songs for jelllicle cats Jellicle songs for jelllicle cats Jellicle songs for jelllicle cats Jellicle songs for jelllicle cats We can dive through the air like a flying trapeze We can turn double somersaults, bounce on a tire We can run up a wall, we can swing through the trees We can balance on bars, we can walk on a wire Jellicles can and jellicles do Jellicles can and jellicles do Jellicles can and jellicles do Jellicles can and jellicles do Jellicle songs for jellicle cats Jellicle songs for jellicle cats Jellicle songs for jellicle cats Jellicle songs for jellicle cats Can you sing at the same time in more than one key? Duets by Rossini and waltzes by Strauss? And can you (as cats do) begin with a 'c'? That always triumphantly brings down the house? Jellicle cats are queen of the nights Singing at astronomical heights Handling pieces from the 'Messiah' Hallelujah, angelical Choir The mystical divinity of unashamed felinity Round the cathedral rang 'Vivat' Life to the everlasting cat! Feline, fearless, faithful and true To others who do-what Jellicles do and jellicles can Jellicles can and jellicles do Jellicle cats sing jellicle chants Jellicles old and jellicles new Jellicle song and jellicle dance Jellicle songs for jellicle cats Jellicle songs for jellicle cats Jellicle songs for jellicle cats Jellicle songs for jellicle cats Practical cats, dramatical cats Pragmatical cats, fanatical cats Oratorical cats, Delphicoracle cats Skeptical cats, Dispeptical cats Romantical cats, Pedantical cats Critical cats, parasitical cats Allegorical cats, metaphorical cats Statistical cats and mystical cats Political cats, hypocritical cats Clerical cats, hysterical cats Cynical cats, rabbinical cats Aaah, Jellicle cats Jellicle songs for jellicle cats Jellicle songs for jellicle cats Jellicle songs for jellicle cats Jellicle songs for jellicle cats Jellicle songs for jellicle cats

I have no doubt in my mind that people that hate cats have never actually listened to the soundtrack, there’re just jumping in the bandwagon 😂
