Best Song For Every Starkid Member

For this video I picked what I thought was the best song for every Starkid member. I tried to pick the song that I thought best displayed their strengths.
A few caveats:
I only counted the live stage shows (no cast recordings)
I only counted people who had prominent solos in at least two songs.
Some of these were EXTREMELY hard to pick
(*cough* Dylan *cough*)
Make sure to tell me your thoughts in the comments!

[@SilvanaLTD]

Okay. Since Black Friday came out I will update this and say that Corey's best song is now Our Doors Are Open. I have to think about the new cast members for a bit more but I will update this comment eventually.

Unless Take Me Back counts as a solo song, then Do You Want to Play is definitely my favorite for Kim (but her voice shines in every song she sings in)

[@SilvanaLTD]

@@LegoMelonz15 i still count take me back because she has significant solo portions of it. But she sounds amazing in all her songs

[@hello99127]

I think I Will Be Adored might be Lauren's new best song imo...and I'm seconding Yarns Yarnface re. Made In America ((I'd add What Tim Wants for Dylan, but while it's very good, I still think Kick it Up A Notch is better for Dylan))

It’s short, but imo Jeff’s best vocal performance was in the reprise of “when the worlds at stake”. It shows a deepness, richness and strength that is usually covered by the screams. I love his voice, even when he does the really high notes, but it was so nice to see something a little more tender that really let his voice shine :)

[@queendom7125]

Ok, all of these I can agree with, except Jeff Blim and Joey Richter. America is Great Again is easily Jeff’s best song vocally, it shows off his vocals and range perfectly and it’s a song where he’s able to seriously sing, instead of doing more character singing, which he tends to have to do as he plays comedic and outlandish characters a lot. It’s the kind of song that makes you pause at his voice and just listen, and perfectly compliments his voice. For Joey, it’s clearly Status Quo, which again, showcases his voice perfectly. It’s a song that that requires the right amount of acting and vocal skill, which Joey absolutely nails. Sidekick is good, but Status Quo is a whole other level.

[@val8869]

[@SilvanaLTD]

Thanks for watching. And that was a really hard choice

[@adoragrayskull]

@@SilvanaLTD I imagine, she's so great! I'm binge watching your videos, they're so amazing!! Kudos from Brazil

[@immerensisdeus]

Jon Matteson in Let It Out makes me cry every time. The split octaves, the part where he breaks down and wonders if its really all better, gods it gets me.

[@SilvanaLTD]

"Is my integrity worth anything at all?" Jeez that line hits hard

[@immerensisdeus]

@@SilvanaLTD ALL THE LINES HIT HARD But yes I agree after all that fighting he just thinks, 'was it really worth it?' and i lose it

[@wriggleby]

I love it but for aj I can't decide between that and listen to your heart

[@SilvanaLTD]

My exact conundrum

[@brigit9692]

Listen To Your Heart is so good!! One of my faves from MAMD

[@miatyae5447]

I prefer I Was over To Have a home for Darren (though it's a close second), and I think Sidekick is awesome for Joey! And I prefer If I Believed for Dylan. But still, this vid is perfect. ESPECIALLY SIDEKICK.

[@SilvanaLTD]

Thanks! And you pointed out some of the hardest choices lol

[@lemonmiranda4233]

The Night Belongs to Snarl is easily my favourite song in Firebringer, I think it’s so underrated. And I LOVE Brian Holden’s lower register in it. MMMM

[@SilvanaLTD]

Yes! I wish he got to sing like that more

[@samdemasi6417]

Did you mean 22 minutes of making me cry because these songs are so beautiful?

[@siariele4592]

For Jeff: World's at stake reprise Joey: Wagon on fire And for Dylan: probably, if I believed But I love this video, and I respect the hard choices you had to make (especially for Jon and Robert, amirite)

[@mariajosefinasaporito5189]

Si Ariele Dylan is WAY too talented to just pick ONE best song

[@siariele4592]

@@mariajosefinasaporito5189 That is true, I also apologise for my past, 1 month old self. I now see kick it up a notch is the clear winner

[@MarcyStevonshy]

I love that Joey Richter can brilliantly pull off the high notes of “Sidekick” and the low SEXY notes of “Wagon on Fire.” HE HAS THE RANGE AND HE’S KILLING IT Y’ALL

[@joshuahofstetter6018]

Shame you didn’t use studio recordings because Clark on I Was might be my favorite

[@SilvanaLTD]

He does sound great in that song.

[@genevievem5023]

jokes on you, all of Jamie's songs are the best. it's scientifically implausible to pick the best one

[@SilvanaLTD]

You are right. I can't argue with science

[@404kasha]

I see that you only used Starkid in this. Personally I think so many of these actors have had their best songs in SAF. For example, Joe in Torture Tango gives me LIFE

[@SilvanaLTD]

Haha. I totally agree that's Joe's best song. Its chilling. I actually pinned a comment about this.

[@beatrice7259]

To have a Home is when I fell IN LOVE with precious Darren

[@delaneys6726]

Jon’s facial expressions and his overall just everything in let it out is scary good

[@ekbamusic]

it must have been really difficult to rank all of these and i commend you for that but i Really think jeff's choice should've been dysentery world

[@SilvanaLTD]

You know what's funny, I've seen so many different choices for Jeff. For disagreements on other people i see usually one alternate song that people would have picked but ive seen such a variety for Jeff

[@bridgetspector6703]

Personally I would’ve picked “When I Was” for Joe Walker- his voice sounds amazing in it

[@xanderdaqueer3420]

I love seeing everyone’s different opinions! For me personally, Dylan’s would have been Twisted in Twisted (always makes me cry), Jeff’s would have been America is Great Again, Joey’s would have been Wagon on Fire but dAmn those high notes... JON DURING THE SLOW PART IN LET IT OUT IS MY FAV F U CK, 100% agree with into the night for lauren bc it’s just the most true to her voice and i love it so much, for Meredith I probably would have gone with Jemilla’s Lament or her parts in The Night Belongs to Us even tho i loVe A Thousand and One Nights, WoW i forgot how much I love the riffy parts in Showstopping Number and just not over yet in general-

[@danialbrecht2982]

I think we can all agree corry has changed to our doors our open 😳

[@vhssika]

Long Ago and Far Away is baby

[@knightloveslesbians]

1001 Nights for Meredith is absolutely PERFECT like the first time I watched Twisted I cried during her performance. that song is perfect for her. I agree with every pick on this list shdjdkckck-

[@johnvimusic]

Man Pays to Be an Animal is great and all but... BIG T

[@shadowdragon_7778]

Really love how none of us are surprised or disagree with Robert’s.

[@emilyhodgesoboe]

Excuse me, but “Sands of Time” would like a word. The vocals while tears are welling in his eyes?? The effortless emotion?? I’m sorry but that was the first song I thought of for Dylan even though there are way too many to choose from

[@SilvanaLTD]

Yeah choosing Dylan's song was rough because he literally always sounds amazing. Like all of his songs give me chills

[@anni2539]

*sees Robert's song* _wow, what a surprise_

[@fransherrie8052]

Omg I’m sorry but I think Mariah’s best is Lah Dee Dah Dah Day

[@robertoromero5911]

Yup!!

[@hannahs2077]

Actually Dylan’s best was we’re all in this together in avpm

[@rubyhowes1765]

In my opinion Brian holder's best song was kick it up a notch reprise

[@robertday284]

Holden

[@fallenangel1657]

you know, jeff blim sounded really good in "when the worlds at stake" reprise, wish he used that voice more.

[@auroradainer]

I agreed with every pick, except for Lauren Lopez. I think she sounded better in Climate Change and in Into the Night she sounded a little strained. But that’s just my opinion, sorry if it came off as rude.

[@SilvanaLTD]

I love love love Climate Change but Into the Night literally gives me chills. And I love hearing everyone's opinions! It didn't come of as rude at all.

[@thecapsulecapture7102]

There's like one high note that sounds strained because she's in her head voice for a lot of it.

[@roseprescott1476]

I'm just curious, when does she sound strained? It just sounds like she switchs between mix and head a few times though I'm just basing it on the clip here. Would love to hear your opinion on it!

[@auroradainer]

She sounds very nasally at the beginning, which can indicate strain between head voice and chest voice when a song is primarily focusing on your bridge (where head voice and chest voice meet). This can not be changed, as your bridge is decided by the shape of your vocal chords. For example, my bridge is G4 - A4. This pretty much means Lauren’s voice doesn’t fit well with the song, and I believe that climate change suits her voice better. Although, this may not be as big as a concern for Starkid, seeing as they are a musical theatre company and I mainly focus on opera/classical music, so I don’t know that much about musical theatre.

[@roseprescott1476]

@@auroradainer Okay I get what you mean now. I lean more on the musical theater side with classical influence. However I don't usually see the term bridge, I'm guessing you're talking about the mix as that's a blend of head and chest. She does sound a bit nasally now that I listen again, this is unfortunately rather common within theater singers when they utilize a higher belt (from what I've seen)but can carry over to other parts. I think in this case and with the way she's singing, it's definitely within her break and thus makes it harder to transition more evenly? I could be wrong but that's what I would guess

[@SuperBeautifulSakura]

jeff blims best song is without a doubt: rogues are we. Him as Sweet Tooth was amazing :p

[@jefferycrouse4652]

Him and Jaime were amazing in that show.

[@lauren1969]

I always forget that it’s Brain Rosenthal as James!!!

[@Emilia-ue8cm]

Wagon on Fire is Joey’s best song imo
