Always Dance - A Very Potter Senior Year

[@MsSmiIeyFace]

And just think, Tom wouldn't have turned evil if he hasn't received a damn snickers bar for Christmas!

[@YouTubeUser-gd8vg]

Haley Quinn *evil and angry voice "Snickers"!!!!!!!

AVPM: "When I was a boy...an orphan boy..." AVPSY: "Now you are a boy...an orphan boy..."

[@laurenhatter6824]

Also don’t forget AVPM: “The other boys would laugh and jeer” AVPSY: “When all the other boys start to laugh and jeer” 👍

[@someotherworldlybeing3167]

It’s kinda like a reprise of starkid

[@caorgi]

When life sucks, dance. And because life always sucks, always dance

[@depressednerds8634]

You've got the talent, kid, so you're my nominee.

[@emilypolinski]

I love how a Potter musical turns into Voldemort's coming out/finding love musical. This is fantastic!

[@B4ndG33k1]

honestly, if someone told me that this was the theme song for the death eaters, I'd sign up in a heart beat.

[@mrsyummymum]

"Yay I'm Gay!!!" oh Tommy Riddle XD

[@kayliemc6553]

“when life sucks, just dance. And since life always sucks, always dance” thought I should come back and say I made this my ✨senior quote✨

[@catlover8278]

I love the voice Joe gives Tom when he's a little boy, it makes me laugh every time!

[@shakinaf6559]

makes me cry but aight

[@ilikesniffingpaper]

It makes me imagine a little boy with spiky ass shark teeth lol

[@ShermanSquiggly]

I'm always like "Awww Tom cares about Ginny!" And then... YOU WERE BORN FOR MY CONTROL SO STEP INTO MY TRANCE! Sigh.

[@linklink3008]

I think he does like her a little bit. Just not enough to keep from using her up until she's dead. He cares about Quirrel of course, and I'm pretty sure his Death Eater friends as well.

[@TyWarner06]

so true

[@elizamardlin1782]

Dylan's voice at the beginning of "I've been watching you play" is so good

[@aveelovesyou]

*Just had an epiphany* Omg guys.. I'm so slow. I just realized that the beginning music and words are pretty much the same as Dance Again.. I'M SO FREAKING SLOW WHY DID I NOT REALIZE THIS EARLIER!?

[@duckinahurry4630]

Avery Keller “cause when you start to sway, you get carried away”

[@127twilight]

Joe Walker is an amazing actor he went from Voldemort, Umbridge, and Little Tom Riddle. Joe is very talented he can do some amaxing voives and then you hear his actual voive and when he does his characters your like No No thats not Joe.

[@Gracehasyoutube]

that is why he is my favourite Starkid (of course there are other reasons )

[@merrysleeps]

@@Gracehasyoutube like the fact he’s SOOOOOOO hot

[@CoolGuy25751]

"And since life always sucks, ALWAYS dance" LOL

[@ladyus8265]

love dumbledore's voice

[@StarKidWannaBe]

Dylan sings=I melt

[@meganjacobson4175]

That awkward moment when Voldemort has an ardorable kid voice. . .

[@cesegedemaine]

I love that Starkid added in bits from past musicals.

[@saraawrr]

5:24 anyone else feel like Joe's voice got _really_ sexy at the end omg

[@TheMaddyMJ]

"now you are a boy, a orphan boy" I LOVE IT!

[@ורדאסף-פ7ס]

Joe's voice so cute here!!

[@StarKidWannaBe]

also, anyone else notice that it sounds like "listen to your heart" ever so slightly? lol

[@SweenyTodd98]

Joe Walker is amazing!

[@silentdreams123]

I am literally going to die when Starkid releases the musical and it gets to this scene... It's gonna be fantastic :D

[@crazyinsanechicks]

So far this is totally my favorite because it's old-school. Love AVPM

[@DeathTheHaunted]

Am I the only one who finds the last part a little Phantom of the Opera-ish?

[@astrowiz3544]

Yeah haha I think it was meant to be a reference to POTO

[@isabellalesher8487]

I was thinking about Sweeney Todd too EDIT: I was thinking more the “you were born for my control”

[@luizasabbaga592]

This song has such a special place in my heart. Always dance kids

[@TheBaloulebougalou]

Dylan's the best !

[@isabellalesher8487]

Hogwarts in the books/movies: people are dying, drama, bunch of other things. Musical: CaRe FoR a FrIeNdLy DaNcE oFf? WOULD I??

[@cicyflame]

Not as bad as the Cedric/Lily shipping

[@mr_oreoman]

Hands down the best Starkid song, come at me

[@chuualwayswins]

[@KieraWaffles]

[@kleinemelone007]

[@mariatinsel]

[@Breegan]

[@juzzylime94]

THEIR BACK BABY!!!!

[@FancyAlly]

I love this song!

[@horsezrule610]

The Flying Greyson I THOUGHT EXACTLY THE SAME!!!! :D can't really blame Ginny after watching this... ;)

[@thelouisfanclub]

I wish some good singers would do a high quality recording of these musicals because there are some seriously good songs! This song in particular is on par with anything on broadway

[@david-jonballinger6638]

Lol, they ARE great singers. Not to mention some of them HAVE been on Broadway. These are professional productions and many of the performers have acted in tv and other mediums. A large majority of the cast members have been singing for years. While I understand what you mean, and I do believe that the songs are generally great quality. I appreciate the work that goes into them and love them for what they are. :)

[@thelouisfanclub]

ok but often they do sing out of tune and don't get the harmonies right. the songs are great, and although starkid has some great actors i don't think they take the music as seriously as they could

[@david-jonballinger6638]

In these recordings? The harmonies are on point and I can barely hear them go out of tune. If you're talking about the live show of this then they literally had three days to put it together, and one day during this for darren to be put in, learn his songs and harmonies. It could not be helped that there were mistakes. As for all the other shows the performers have constantly improved with every one. Just to remind you that a large majority studied acting and weren't singers at the beginning. But then again you can hear the trained singers in every show of theirs and notice that the members all grow into their own singing. And I'm sorry I really don't mean to judge you but your comment about them not taking the music seriously is ridiculous. In each show they have a musical director/s, this means that each and every song is worked on extensively and that this person refines the performances by the performers. They spend as much time on the songs as the writing and acting. That is what rehearsals are. They are a musical theatre company after all. In the most recent shows, pretty much everything is spot on. In Trail to Oregon everyone sounds great, same for Twisted. As for going flat, it happens to every singer occasionally due to nerves and adrenaline. Even the greats like Idina Menzel and other big ones. Performers aren't machines.

[@WonderfulLizardOfOz]

Not to be nitpicky, Starkid, but I think the lyric "though you'll try to stop me, we'll still dance" would work better than "though they'll try to stop us, always dance" at the end.

[@duckinahurry4630]

WonderfulLizardOfOz not really because he’s talking to the “You” person and the “You” person is part of the “we” and the “You” would never try to stop because the “you” is part of the “us” and the “us” will always dance. The “they” is other people that might judge the “us” for dancing

[@malachiknudsen7785]

And to add onto the comment from 9 years ago, "Always" is a very big part of Harry Potter in general, so that's also their throw in and giving that word it's "power" if you will in yhe musical universe as well

[@introusas]

Oh Dumby I'll always dance!

[@banana-xj6yk]

him singing to ginny hits different

[@sage5530]
