(not very) fun fact, in the musical, K Howard literally just stands there sobbing for quite a while after the song ends. Then she very casually just swaps right back into the old "bratty" persona and pretends like nothing happened, the mask is right back on

[@sherylannd6813]

Her little sob/gasp at the end of the song on the stage recording gets me every time

K Howard had the worst life...the whole "she was a seductress" nonsense came from Henry and his lackeys...as did Bolyen's extra finger... Poor Howard was destroyed...

[@danyf.1442]

I got bashed on an historical video for saying that yes, it was different times but 13 is still 13...we don't know his age for sure but most likely her music teacher Henry Mannox was still way older than her and still makes their relationship very exploitative. Many claim it was normal to marry so young but really it wasn't, it happened usually only with royalty and in very specific circumstances. I read quite a bit about Katherine Howard and nobody can change my mind that she was only a child, used and abused by pretty much everyone around her. She is the most tragic of the wives and I really do feel for her even if she died centuries ago.

[@sherylannd6813]

Her song doesn't even go to Henry's reaction or her beheading, because to her it's not her death that was the real tragedy. It kills me so much.

right? Her life didn't end just because she died/beheaded, her life ended up the moment it happened again, and again, and again. She was so young when it happened to her, she was just a naive young girl trying to live her life but was taken advantage of by the men around her. No one really helped her, she was alone and innocent.

[@Cataly_ely]

Something i don’t see mentioned/noticed a lot, is how even in the first chorus she says "This guy is different" which implies that even at that age, at 13 years old, that was STILL not the first guy to take advantage of her. Yeah. Just a not so fun fact i don’t see people talk about enough

[@rocamboleq]

i think i never even noticed that

[@auronyx18]

Same, she says “take my first music teacher” which most assume means her first abuser, but she’s giving an example using a 40ish year old man for the sake of the line “he was 23, I was 13 going on 30” which actually meant that he was about 30 years older than her. “This guy is different” seriously implies he wasn’t the first.

[@oops3828]

😬 I hadn't noticed that before!

@@auronyx18we have to remember back then this was absolutely normal and it wouldn’t have been seen as taking advantage.

[@BGTitanAvatar]

Sam Pauly is the one singing in the clip you watched. She’s part of the Broadway cast. Honestly her performance is soooo good at portraying going from a naive kid (13) who was unwittingly taken advantage of to a 17-19 year old who has come to realize that she’s been abused and taken advantage of for most of her very short life. She was still a teenager when she was beheaded. The studio version is good and I’ll never say the singing is bad, but Sam’s live performance just really sucker punches you. There’s even times when it’s dead silent after she finishes her number because it was that visceral for the audience. Just, so good.

[@ruffboiALT]

I think the thing is that Sam specifically is really good at getting across the darkness of it all by the end. I've seen other live performances and hers is 100% the most gutwrenching portrayal I've seen. You could actually, if you don't catch the lyrics clearly and are just bopping along, you might think it gets sad/dark at the end bc she's getting beheaded. But it's really just the culmination of a lifetime of grooming and abuse. But Sam is good at getting across even early on that everything isn't ok.

[@j.r.cilliangreen4083]

And now she is in The Great Gatsby!!!

[@YokaiEnthusiast]

I love that Sam really goes there. I saw a clip of her where she said that during the audition process, she was reassured that this song doesn't "need to be pretty" and so she gives all the emotion you see on stage. She is not the only fantastic K Howard but she absolutely is ICONIC in the role.

Fun fact: All You wanna do is very much inspired by Britney Spears’ music! I was glad you caught the womanizer inspirations. Most of the body of the song is deeply based on toxic. You could switch the music and vocals from all you wanna do and toxic and they would still fit.

[@vivijensenforchhammer4353]

This. All the queens are inspired by "pop-queens", K Howard's inspiration being Britney and Ariana Grande, who both started their careers very young..

For years all I knew was the cast recording, the live show was a shock for sure.

[@malenejensen02]

Yep... Me too... First time it really hit me! I always thought of the song as a banger. I could easily still see the tragegy, but the song was was one I wanted to sing along to... But not when I watch a live performance. Then I just watch them.

[@cloudystars1443]

I was the same! I used this album for my walk to and from work to strut and get some extra energy out but watching Casper and Mortius react with the other contexts audios makes it much more real

[@Svp3rN0va-xoxo]

I personally saw the live performance first (on yt) and I was disappointed when hearing the cast recording. Don't get me wrong, they sound great I just miss the emotional sound of this song

[@cloudystars1443]

@@Svp3rN0va-xoxo I don't blame you! It puts so much context and perspective to her story cause even just the base album implies that they're comparing their stories but not the competitive aspect that's given in the actual show. Maybe cause of the missing context before her song they left the emotional bit out to not confuse people who found the album first like me but didn't know? But honestly that singer/actress? has so much skill to be able to convey the emotion like that

[@palomaroggeri8680]

Thankfully the broadway cast recording keeps a lot more of the energy and emotion of the performance

[@mer_acle8101]

What breaks my heart (apart from the obvious, god "this guy finally is what i want the friend i need" is so PAINFUL every single time) is that she was only 16-18 when she was killed. It's said that you could hear her crying before because she was terrified. Like sometimes I think about showing historical figures what they achieved like showing Alexander Hamilton the Hamilton musical (his ego would implode i think) but for her, I wouldn't show her Six I would just give her a freaking hug

[@dragansnyder2786]

The other sad thing about it is I think there's a story out there about her constantly practicing for the moment where her head would get cut off, she was a child and all she wanted to do was not make a fool of herself even though she was going to die,, that just hurts

[@Neveah-xm1rk]

Oh, I'm so gonna cry again... I always feel bad for her. Fun fact no one knows what age she was when she was executed, but it was estimated that she was around 17-18 years old and when she met henry around 15-16. As she said, when she met the first guy, she was 13 going on 14, and when she met the second one, francis she was around 14. Again, we don't what age she was back then as their isn't much information about her so this is all a the most closes guess to what age she was back then before ans when she was beheaded. 😢😢😅😅😢😢

Samantha Pauly, the singer who plays Katherine Howard, is so incredibly talented that she conveys her emotions beautifully. Even when the choreography is still lively, she shows looks of fear and insecurity while masking everything with a smile. This song is extremely tragic, but it's still my favorite song in the show. The delivery in Sam's voice and performance, the choreography and the band is simply perfect. Katherine was just a teenager when she passed, she should have been protected. The sad thing is that in her part in "Ex Wives" she sings "Lock up your husbands, lock up your sons K Howard is here, and the fun's begun", initially we thought it was about her going after these men, when in reality, she just wants them away from her, because the fun is already over.

[@smirror196]

26:29 All of the Queens are actually inspired by different queens of pop, and one of K Howard’s Queen-spirations IS Britney Spears so that’s totally intentional! In fact, All You Wanna Do even has the same tempo and chorus chord progression as Toxic

@@KelilaBennet Me too I LOVE the analyses Howard Ho does, they’re so in depth and bring even deeper meaning to the songs

[@Sarah_Squeaks]

One of the most tragic things about K. Howard that will randomly pop into my mind and hurt me repeatedly is that the night before she was killed, she was so concerned with "making a good death" (basically meeting certain image/religious requirements) that she asked for the block to be brought to her chambers and spent the night practicing kneeling down and laying her head on it. The image of this probably* teenage girl mostly alone in her room laying her head on the same block that she would take her last breath on the next morning just stabs me every time I think about it. (*I think I saw it mentioned in another comment, but just to clarify, we don't have any extant record of her birth or age, so historians have estimated that she was anywhere from 16 to 21 at the time of her death, with most believing she was 17ish.)

[@casihamilton3773]

Anne Boleyn has been done wrong by history. There are long stretches in their "courtship" where she straight up ran away to Northern England to avoid being around him and he just kept after her. History paints it like she was playing hard to get, but she even tried to marry someone else that would have been very advantageous for her and the king's advisor killed it. She was, by all accounts, very smart and kind of a bitch, but I'd argue if she'd been born a man that would have made her extremely politically popular. It wasn't lack of fidelity or a son that got her killed, it was that Henry got sick of being with a woman that called him on his shit. It's telling that the wife he liked best was the one that was the most submissive to him.

[@melindoranightsilver9298]

Most likely the most submissive,the only one to give him a son and she died early in the marriage so she couldn't get sick of her.

[@AadenKDragon]

Listen, as someone who was KHoward, I appreciate people who are uncomfortable about it because I am essentially desensitized to it. I don't think about how it effects people who haven't personally experienced it because in my personal world it was life. I often forget that not everyone has experience in such matters until I see reactions like this It sucks that people experience it at all but unfortunately there are just terrible people who do terrible things to people who can't save themselves So from KHowards point of view, if you feel you have to skip over certain things or even just skip entire songs, it's perfectly okay. There's no offense in just not being able to do it. It's a big problem that people often demand big reactions to and sometimes the best decision is to just acknowledge it exists and move on

[@PolinaPomeranian]

Something I want to point out within the music, if you listen in on the third and finale version of the chorus you can hear siren like sounds that go "wee-woo wee-woo" in the back round that aren't in the first two times the chorus plays. I don't know what it actually means within the musical but I really think it's supposed to be like a danger motif. The first one showing the danger of her meeting and getting married to Henry in the third chorus and then the signifying of her being in danger and about to be beheaded in the fourth chorus. It's something not a lot of people point out cause it's such a subtle detail but I love sharing that with people. For reference the first time it plays is at 28:48.

What always gets to me is in the end of the roast she talks about how she's really hot and... Then she hasn't had anything to say because so many people who were groomed and only seen for their beauty and sexuality think that those are the only good things about them.

[@XxAgeofLovexX]

Catherine Howard, while not acting like this in real life, this is supposed to reflect her life as a child who was expected to satisfy the needs of the men in her life. Due to her father's poor gambling decisions and money usage, she was neglected as a child and left with the feeling of being unwanted. She was barely literate and was "generally unlearned." Her only purpose was to be married away, just like most women in that time. Henry Mannox, the man who was supposed to educate her, just used this moment to take advantage a barely teenage girl. Then passed to other men, Dereham, Culpeper, and then King Henry. There was also other allegations she was abused by other men as apparently there were people who "contacted her favors for their silence," blackmailing essentially. Famously upon her time of execution, she practiced her eventual death over and over, she wanted it to be perfect and die beautifully, practicing how her head should be placed upon the plaque, where her hair should be, her final words etc. The axe is her symbol and that is due to that was how she was executed, typically it was with a sword, but Henry was so angered by her "lack of purity," that he decided to punish her even more. The axe was not sharp though, she was frankly butchered. The axe ruined her plan for a perfect death, it got stuck in the neck and it did not go through so the executioner cut over and over into her neck until it went through, causing great anguish and pain. Catherine's body did not last through history either. It disappeared suddenly and there are many theories on why this happened, there's quite a popular theory that her body was inlaid with lime, and since she died so young, her bones would still be brittle and it would dissolve to dust. Potentially hiding that she even existed even to the tests of time. She was buried in a unmarked grave, and eventually everyone else forgot about her story too.

[@Huntress_Is_Tired]

You mentioned this reminds you of Britney Spears, thats probably because all of the queens in six have a few names under what they call "queenspirations" Howard is listed as Ariana Grande and Britney Spears Aragon: Beyoncé and Shakira Boleyn: Lily Allen and Avril Lavigne Seymour: Adele and Sia Anna of Cleves: Nicki Minaj and Rihanna Parr: Alicia Keys and Emeli Sandé

So far i think the events told in the Song are correct. Her confidence though is a Musical thing, she was more timid and didnt leave much of an impact in History. Probably becouse she didnt get the chance to since she died young. (19, i believe)

And Henry and her family actively destroyed what records of her they could.

Of the copies, 1 had the name Kathryn on the frame added years after she was executed.

When she was with the secretary, her and a friend would let the men into the dormatry at night and pretended they where married. She was that young it was like a fantasy to her. She was between 17 to 19 when she was beheaded. Henry by then was large and had an unhealing ulcer on his leg. Its thought that henry hated her at the end im one of his fits. (It seems common with her and anne b as anne boylen he had all pictures of her distroyed). With Katherine h when they had to redo the chapel she is buried in she was underneath someone else but they found hardly any remains as the ground had been covered in lime to destroy her.

A KID cannot CONSENT to any sexual action, PERIOD, does not matter if you're 17 or 5.

Exactly i was taught about henry viii and how the wifes died but not much about them. It was only when i started to read more about it as an adult i learned more about them.

1) This was Sam Pauly. Her portrayal remains my favorite in that role. 2) I think your English is quite good, for what it's worth! :) 3) The juxtaposition of the music being such a bop against the darkness of the story/lyrics makes the storytelling so much darker.

formulate is totally a word, ie formulating a plan

[@dragonreader3817]

She sings those high notes effortlessly. It was also changed from the original version in London, which stayed upbeat to be more tragic at the end. A much better version.

[@lilybethkuhn9650]

Samantha Pauly sings this. It’s on Spotify if you have that

[@johnathanmason5169]

Drums bass keyboard and guitar are the instruments in this musical I have seen it live Sam was awesome

[@CMSiegel1979]

Totally understand….it is hard not get past the lyrics of this

[@story1x5studios]

in one of the six musicals at the end she says "and then I was beheaded"

[@nilramiel]

Samantha Pauly is who plays and voices her i think

[@MayoGoblin]

I know everyone is so adamant about watching this song live so you can "see the emotions" (and the hands, everyone love to talk about the hands) but I always find it a disservice when reactors watch everyone elses studio performances, but this actress only gets her live played. Dont get me wrong, she sounds great live, but everyone else sounds 10x better only because they get their studio version played and she gets a video recorded secretly from the corner of the theater lmao

[@glowbug4322]

Casper you whistle so pretty!!! Oh my goodness can you get any prettier / cooler ❤

[@sarahhandberg5185]

God this song is so good and so heavy and I get goosebumps every time I listen to the live version of it We’re never taught about what happened to his wives in history and it’s sad bc they were so important and did so much for their country despite everything they were put through

[@SM-fz3et]

Was really, really hoping you got a heads up before you watched; so glad you did. It's a LOT. It's hard to listen to and harder to watch. (And when I saw it live, the people next to me had no warning!!)

[@SM-fz3et]

oh NO. "I understand the trigger warnings now" made me groan "oh nooo you don't" out loud

[@heavenking9104]

What makes me really sad is that after all she went through she barely made it to adulthood because she was beheaded for her previous abuse

[@gemmawade869]

That’s Samantha paulie the broadway actress

[@joannajijo555]

Sam Pauly is absolutely brilliant. She’s also playing Jordan baker in the Og broadway cast of the great gatsby musical rn and she’s brilliant.

1:48 Slay 💅

[@crystallight808]

7:57 your situation is like how people hate artwork because of artists, but yours is more so you want to enjoy the artwork even passed the problems because you're a music analysis not a psychological analysis!

[@arlothe_ariel]

very off topic but YOU'RE YOUNGER THAN ME?? i don't know how i feel about this

[@milliegoodwin5389]

Henry Mannox, the music teacher; is actually believed to have been in his 30's when he did those things to Katherine

[@helenameneghisse1935]

My history teacher passed six whem we lermed about hanry the 8^

[@ellacengiz]

[@CFAnne]

Getting Brittney spears vibe? Yes. The inspo for her is Brittany and Ariana.

[@AniMeL0V3R92]

Going to see this for the firat time in 2 weeks ❤

[@swiftninja91]

Yeah, Katherine was thought to be 17 when she married Henry. That poor woman was doomed from the word "go".

[@aniflowers1998]
