How does his voice sound EXACTLY the same as 1987. as a singer who takes care of his voice well. this isn't fair, lol

[@MichaelJMoritzJr]

Chip is amazing. Thanks for watching :)

[@joed180]

Right?

[@rohitbabar8715]

Exactly

[@Knonnynonny]

Yep.

[@Splurge24]

Chip: “No more question, please...” Me: *starts crying*

The dude does not age and his voice is amazingly preserved. He must eat children.

I mean he IS a baker....

@@hannahlynn8028 And in a Sondheim show, no less. Perhaps he knows Mrs. Lovett?

That joke takes on a different tone in 2021 omg.

When I saw the original Broadway production, this song made me tear up. Listening to it now STILL makes me tear up, as did every other time I listened between then and now. What an amazing performance of an amazing set of lyrics.

I love chip. This is one of the best songs in the show and they left it out of the film. Will never understand that choice. The words are brilliant.

[@MichaelJMoritzJr]

Such a lovely song and beautifully interpreted by Chip!

Agreed! Chip is incredible. Thanks for watching!

[@hummersd]

Wonderful! Just saw Mr. Zien in Harmony, and then fortunate to see NYCC's Into the Woods, and now on a binge to hear "No More" over and over.

[@mzmiller52]

3:00 to 3:45 is my favorite lyric ever set to the perfect music. RIP Sondheim.

[@Machewes]

Wow wow wow. Sondheim is a national treasure. Baker No more questions, Please. No more tests. Comes the day you say, "What for?" Please- no more. Mysterious man They disappoint, They disappear, They die but they don't... Baker What? Mysterious man They disappoint In turn, I fear. Forgive, though, they won't... Baker No more riddles. No more jests. No more curses you can't undo, Left by fathers you never knew. No more quests. No more feelings. Time to shut the door. Just- no more. Mysterious man Running away- let's do it, Free from the ties that bind. No more despair Or burdens to bear Out there in the yonder. Running away- go to it. Where did you have in mind? Have to take care: Unless there's a "where," You'll only be wandering blind. Just more questions. Different kind. Where are we to go? Where are we ever to go? Running away- we'll do it. Why sit around, resigned? Trouble is, son, The farther you run, The more you'll feel undefined For what you have left undone And more, what you've left behind. We disappoint, We leave a mess, We die but we don't... Baker We disappoint In turn, I guess. Forget, though, we won't... Both Like father, like son. Baker No more giants Waging war. Can't we just pursue out lives With out children and our wives? 'Till that happy day arrives, How do you ignore All the witches, All the curses, All the wolves, all the lies, The false hopes, the goodbyes, The reverses, All the wondering what even worse is Still in store? All the children... All the giants... No more.
