I Loved the Hines and Lane Duet! That was awesome! Thank you for posting these! I just discovered them in June and I have been watching these old Tony awards in Chronological order. I have been enjoying them very much.

[@battlegirldeb]

I saw this on TV the first time, I look at this now and I can't remember most of the show. So happy you post these shows.

[@danielricci7446]

The way Michele Lee sings “J. Pierrepont!” makes me so joyous. The music is just swelling. I could listen to that moment over and over.

Gregory Hinds on the "If He Walked Into My Life" − Mame WOW, I would have loved to see that version lol

[@colaradoblack9636]

Love it! Thanks for this; it's brilliant!

[@stephthornton7506]

Sunset with Glenn was one of the best nights I ever had in the theatre.

[@BarryCorbett-x9m]

😂😂😂

[@rochellebriones4472]

Wow the old man it's so dance 🙏🙏🙏🌏🌎🌍📸🌎🌐🗺🤗nice

[@pika23]

I was in NYC that day! My class went to see broken glass by Arthur Miller. We had lunch at beefsteak Charlie's. I remember Rudy Giuliani was giving a sound bite to the news and we all ran up and shouted like hill Billy fools from the sticks.

[@seunoyeleye5394]

Lilias White is just the best

[@glennfromthebronx]

....saw Ms. White at Carnegie Hall @2002....last apearrance of the Carnegie Hall JAzz Band with Jon Faddis. She KILLED on BLUES IN THE NIGHT.

[@patford8488]

At 12:20 the announcer says Buskers is at San Francisco’s Orpheum Theater, but it was at the Golden Gate Theater.

[@JoshFreilich]

"It is an honor just to be NOMINAAAAAAAAATTTEEEEEEEEEED?!?!?!?!!?!" I did not expect that...

[@richardbullis6263]

Not really. It's better to win.

[@LucasBradleylpbproductions6]

Funny because Nathan Lane would WIN his first Tony a year later for "Forum".

[@glennfromthebronx]

...1995 seemed to have been a SOLID year for musicals, incl. revivals, and the plays were "no slouch".

[@antonspivack1436]

Except there were only two new musicals and three musical revivals, one of which closed in three weeks.

[@glennfromthebronx]

@@antonspivack1436 wow. I didn't do a 'head count"...but WOW. I think I was overlapping from previous years' productions. thanks.

[@ryebread9299]

Is the song in the first min 42nd street I'm just guessing

[@lazarelazaro52]

No, it is On Broadway from All That Jazz.

[@lazarelazaro52]

I am talking about 1:04 - 4:20 it is a song by George Benson. It's the opening song from the flick All That Jazz from 1978 (the year is only guessing). Check it out.

[@lazarelazaro52]

Just checked this Smokey Joe's Cafe is only a revue of standards, so yeah, we're both right.

[@evans54]

Lieber and Stoller song

[@SamPasserdoodlesandhappenings]

I bet Disney saw Glenn Close in "Sunset Blvd" and said "We Found Our Cruella!!

[@jadezee6316]

the stage IMO is where the real great actors/performers are...live nightly shows....some of the greatest songs ever written....not endless takes.....rise and fall on your talent ...why..no streams of live shows yet.?..for a fee of course

[@pika23]

Miss close gonna wear out her Fitbit with all them steps

[@rochellebriones4472]

The grammeis award congrats on the best thing of peoples in your life fight against one another in the word

[@rochellebriones4472]

[@chloeprincess9189]

Yo you think u could do this with the mtv awards Like '95 mtv awards that be cool

[@glennfromthebronx]

....shuld also be posted on youtube....or google it...some of it's on the MTV website. You MIGHT find more specific parts, like msical numbers if you refine/narrow your "google" search. GOOD LUCK. www.mtv.com/vma/1995

[@pika23]

Just so we can see such highlights as the yearly drunken axle rose and Courtney love do their antics

[@iHeartsNostalgiaPit]

did the announcer accidentally say 1999?

[@richardbullis6263]

How did Gregory Hines die?

[@johnyzero2000]

He had cancer and kept quiet about it and his family only revealed it after he had died.

[@iHeartsNostalgiaPit]

well now I have to get my long comments out there before December There's a Broadway in Winnipeg too bad they didn't show that The Tony awards were only two hours at the time what made them start to go to three? Meerkat Nathan, and calm down you'll get yours in 2001 Walter Cronkite did How to Succeed in Business? well that's new 18:03 now do the hula....kidding bird cage joke would have been too easy that's because the Tony's didn't exist yet Red what was up with Patrick Stewart's voice I mean it's not as bad as Jack Klugman's was the previous year oh my god it's a very young Jude Law well it's nice to hear something from Showboat that isn't Old Man River (take the hint Cabaret) okay now I really wish Cousin Mel got a better number than "Grandma's gonna sue the pants off of Santa" in Grandma got run over by a reindeer How To Succeed doesn't have the best luck in the revival department does it? next time it gets revived it's up against only one other show.....and it still loses 40:11 I can't believe he brought his dog as a date, but I guess it was a good luck charm I've never seen Helen Mirren without grey hair before it's a shame that Having Our Say didn't get the love it should have gotten even more depressing that Bessie Delany passed away three months after this ceremony oh so Carol was playing Dolly in that tour (Dolly made a tour stop in Winnipeg in 1994 and Carol was in a commercial for it one day I'll upload it) and then Ralph Fiennes did the movie version of Hamlet....with Glenn close Man only two nominations in Best actress? kind of a weak year

[@LloydAntonyLB]

Wow, Sunsets win was awkward 😮

[@pika23]

Ok so the sophmore kids went to see Patrick Stewart in the tempest...during the q&a instead of asking Shakespeare stuff or acting ...you guessed it! Every single Trekkie popped up and barraged him with questions on next generation and stuff about the ship and the crew members🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@rochellebriones4472]

[@kennethdesmondmosley1075]

The duet with Gregory Hines and La Lane was ruined by lanes focus pulling. Hines far superior talent.

[@BarryCorbett-x9m]

Why is Glenn Close allowed to sing in public?

[@georgechlada4868]

It's such a shame that they didn't nominate victor/Victoria.

[@disneydanny2]

they were nominated the following year because the show didn't open in time for them to be nominated for these Tony's

[@cam11971]

+Danny Eyheralde +George Chlada and then the only nomination they received was for Best Actress- so Julie declined the nomination

[@antonspivack1436]

@@cam11971 Julie said the show was "egregiously overlooked," but more likely Julie's performance was the only thing it had going for it.

[@iHeartsNostalgiaPit]

well that's a shame considering that was the last thing Henry Mancini did

[@richardmayora1289]

@@antonspivack1436 Nonsense. Rachel York was incredible and was totally robbed. She won other awards and received phenomenal reviews. The production was very handsome and every performance was outstanding. The new songs were awful but the ones from the movie made great production numbers. The Tonys had their tail between their legs and Ms. Andrews' declination changed the Tony rules. In that mediocre season, and I did see EVERY musical, it was far more enjoyable just to see Andrews.

[@richardbullis6263]

Nathan Lane should have played it straight.

[@BarryCorbett-x9m]

Could live without seeing Nathan Lane ever again...he is so over-rated, obnoxious and annoyingly fake.
