BEATLES NOTICE.Hi guys,this video was blocked and now its been released.Please check it out.Its the Beatles with a song called I WILL..Brilliant kzbin.info/www/bejne/qnnCc4WqhtClbcU

[@Russ_Keith]

The movie Cabaret was a work of genius. The direction and choreography by Bob Fosse were ground-breaking and the performances, both in acting and music, were stellar. I don't often enjoy musicals, where people break into song and dance for no obvious reason but the musical numbers in Cabaret were placed in a setting that made sense and the lyrics and performances served to underscore the themes of the story. It managed to bring pathos and humour in equal amounts to a time in history that was truly horrific, the rise of Nazism in Germany and yet was hugely entertaining. I would recommend it to anyone. As a small aside, it was based on a Broadway musical and film called "I Am a Camera" which elicited one of my favourite reviews: "Me no Leica".

[@palm244]

HARRUMPH. Yes, Old Boy, to be sure, it was quite the invigorating cinematic experience!!

[@Russ_Keith]

@@palm244 meh, it was a right.

[@palm244]

@@Russ_Keith HAHAHAHA!

[@nozecone]

After seeing the earlier, "I Am a Camera" (same story), I couldn't watch Cabaret again - it just seems way overdone. In I am a Camera, the Sally Bowles character is really endearing, and the Isherwood character as well is more appealing than Michael York. And it seems much closer to real life. YMMV.

[@paulnelson7525]

Her Oscar winning performance. Bravo.

[@stephenqualtrough7322]

Yes. Just checked Liza wowed the Oscar voters too. She won best actress Oscar for 1973 with this performance in the movie Cabaret

[@shspurs1342]

And Liza was nowhere near first choice to play the character in the movie. She got the role because lots of Women turned it down. Because it was in Germany Nazi rule and so on.

[@Jadibob]

Cabaret has great music, love "Mein Herr" best.

[@brucer2152]

My mom loved Liza and her mother. The movie was "Cabaret". Think of this song in relation to where it's set. It's set in pre-nazis Germany. During the period of time when they were coming into power. In fact many of the performers would be Jewish and would be dead by the time the war was over.

[@caroleathenacosta-songwrit9193]

When Liza sings "When I go ... I'm goin' like Elsie!" she sounds just like Judy!

[@tomevans7567]

Sometimes it's easy to forget why she is considered a legendary performer, and then this reminds you. One of the best ever.

[@doplinger1]

She was a good actress too - really shined in “Arthur”. She was on Ed Sullivan multiple times I’m sure.

[@michaelz9892]

Cabaret is an amazing film.

[@pillmuncher67]

Fun Fact: The MC was played by Joel Grey, son of Mickey Katz and father of Jennifer Grey of Dirty Dancing fame. Also, he got an Oscar for this role.

[@baskervillebee6097]

This was a great song, but I still prefer "Money, Money, Money" that Joel and Liza sang.

[@pillmuncher67]

@@baskervillebee6097 So do I.

[@stpaley]

this performance proves "like mother like daughter"

[@dsusan17]

The movie tackles several taboo issues. With her parents she couldn't help but have talent. Wonderful reaction Harri!

[@bebarchick1]

I've always loved Liza Minnelli. Her eyes reflected a combination of sadness and intensity and she performed with the same intensity and vulnerability Something about her was incredibly attractive. Few performers have that type of charisma and beauty.

[@bobstewart1668]

The movie you heard this from was called "CABARET." It won her, the director, cinematographer, screenplay, OSCARS!!!!

[@cynthianavarro4316]

You should watch the whole movie. It's a total classic!

[@debrabeck9630]

You’ve gotta see the movie, too! 👍

[@jaccilowe3842]

Always gives me chills - I'm going like Elsie!

[@melaniesmith2917]

Love this performance! Voice and emotions are "A1" top notch. I love "Mein Herr" and "Money Money" aswell. I only really recently just watched this movie from start to finish and its a masterpiece. No exaggeration. Highly reccommend it. Also, Liza did an album with , another of my fav artists, Pet Shop Boys,; which was great.

[@deegomez2089]

Liza and her mom sure could deliver a live performance! 🎶🎵

[@thomascanfield9165]

This is wonderful to see Liza at what I believe to be the absolute peak of her career; like a snapshot from the top of Everest on a glorious day. She must have known in her bones that she was there at the top.

[@alisonanthony1228]

Cabaret is one of my all time favourites with so many great performances. But to really understand the film, you need to watch Tomorrow Belongs to Me, one of the most chilling scenes in any film, let alone a musical. It won't spoil it for you if you haven't seen it, but it still makes me shudder.

[@reXdownhamOG]

I did the sound for one of her after show parties. Liza is a national treasure.

[@sonofmargit]

And a gift to the world as well. Saw her live 4 times here in Copenhagen, Denmark. Amazing performer 🔥

[@bemused9522]

Liza has a beautiful and powerful voice, just like her mother.

[@pushpak]

And Happy 50th Anniversary to the movie Cabaret!

[@DavidMichaelCommer]

The movie Cabaret is BRILLIANT. I put off seeing it for so long and when I finally did, I couldn't believe how great it is. Watch it ASAP.

[@craigmccausland1183]

The placing of that song at the end of that movie makes is extremely poignant. Liza was terrific!

[@coldlakealta4043]

This performance is, in my opinion, the single most perfect combination of music, lyrics and performer ever filmed. If you don't feel invigorated after this, you need some of what Elsie was smoking. Kudos also to the costuming and make-up teams. The close-ups of Ms. Minnelli's have a stunning impact. And, BTW - just to be clear - I like it! 😃

[@JerisEve]

Liza did a great song called Maybe This Time in Cabaret also. Please listen to it. It's brilliant.

[@christopherlundgren3499]

Amen! Probably the best song, in a show full of great songs! (Though possibly Married/Heiraten might be in the running)

[@LizaFan]

Included through Liza's own encouragement!

[@JessRansdellSmith]

Liza wanted this song 8n the movie and after some argument she was allowed to sing it. And, in a bit of irony, this movie likely would have won for best original soundtrack if it were not for this song being added because she'd sung it on one of her albums before the movie.

[@TheLjff]

My favourite film ever. I'm sure you would like it too.

[@DrTramp-uu1hh]

Liza was smoking hot in Cabaret wasn't she? Plus it was a perfect platform for her talents as a singer and actress. Spot on reaction to the message of the song but if you watch the entire movie you'll appreciate its context even more. Liza's character, Sally, is singing it in a moment of heartbreak. Though all the songs in the movie are great this is one of my two favorites, the other being "Tomorrow Belongs To Me" which also has a compelling but much darker message. I'd enjoy seeing and hearing your reaction to it. Mahalo

[@maryboylan3093]

You need to watch the movie Cabaret.

[@DonnaleaSpencer]

A 26 year old powerhouse of talent - LIZA, with a Z!

[@DawnSuttonfabfour]

Great line about going like Elsie! Watch the film Harri, its divinely, decadently wonderful. You will love it, promise!

[@ursulabklyn_mia6148]

Wow when ever Liza belted a word she sounded like her famous mother Judy Garland. I actually know Judy Garland more because when I was a kid in the 70s I'd watch all those great old movies and musicals on the weekend.

[@elainemarsh3477]

Try "Maybe This Time" from the same movie. Incredible performance.

[@kippytx]

Liza also was in a movie New York, New York. She has a huge hit of New York, New York

[@amberfuchscia709]

Thank you for this! Cabaret was my favorite movie when it came out and remained so for many years. I particularly loved Joel Grey as the announcer. He was deliciously evil. The movie is about a very difficult time in Germany. Pre-war. It shows with well-executed scenes how Germany began to fall into the nightmare it became. Excellent movie--great cast.

[@Vikinggirl1679]

Great song great reaction. Love Liza Minnelli. Powerhouse of a voice, incredible academy and tony award winning actress. Runs in the genes. Her dad was famed director /producer Vincent Minnelli and her mother was Judy Garland (Dorothy in the wizard of oz, meet me in St.. Louis, etc.) Try reacting to her singing New York New York; live. OMG!! You won't believe your ears!

[@sherylhenley1931]

You should really check out the movie Cabaret! Wonderful movie! Did you know she was the daughter of the great Judy Garland and the wonderful film director Vincent Minnelli? They were both amazingly talented people, as is their daughter. Loved your reaction!

[@sarahzentexas]

My all-time favorite movie! Cabaret is legendary!

[@nunc-hic-stans4211]

That "acting" face she puts on when the light hits her face at the beginning is just acting perfection, magical. One of the best performances in cinema ever. Not a bad song in this movie, Maybe this time is my personal favourite.

[@flubblert]

The movie "Cabaret" taken from Broadway hit theater productions of the same name. This song may not have been on the charts, but it was everywhere in the late sixties early seventies. All over TV. Remember young Judy Garland from The "Wizard of Oz"? This is her daughter.

[@rogerwitte]

This was probably the second best song in the movie, after Willkommen by Joel Gray - so react to that (and then watch the whole movie in your own time).

[@skinheadjon901]

The film "Cabaret" is brilliant in showing the decidance of 30's pre war Berlin & definitely worth a watch - Liza Minilli & Joel Grey & Michael York could not have been better cast. Thanks for your reaction. Viva Bob Fossey 🎥🎶🤩🙌👍

[@MichelleCWeber]

I love Fosse’s work. When I go I’m going like Elsie! Liza and her mama were those who dragged me into musicians!

[@windycitykitty]

Great reaction, thanks for the fun. The movie was called “Cabaret”.

[@mirandaanderson9160]

Great performance and thank you for reacting to this song. Her Mother (Judy Garland) was born in the town where I live. I've went and toured the house many times.

[@debramoore7513]

Love Liza Minnelli 💙 I went to the movie theatres to see Cabaret’ back in High School. It was outstanding and of course, Liza was sublime!! Freddie Mercury was friends with Liza so she performed at The Freddie Mercury Tribute Concert 1992 to honor him!!

[@philminion3675]

Cabaret was a great broadway play this is from the movie it was the best thing liza did by the way she is judy Garland's daughter

[@sarablack2547]

love this film.this song along with her mum's somewhere over the rainbow are 2 of the songs i'd like played at my funeral! her mum is judy garland.her dad ia vincante minnelli.her half sister is lorna luft.talent is in the genes as she sings as well. please do mein herr,money and maybe this time which always makes me emotional.the mc in the film is joel grey jennifer grey's dad(dirty dancing) there is videos on you tube of her singing with her mum on judy's tv show.

[@robertaxel]

Amazing performance and film. The power of the song was the irony of it performed in a seedy nightclub with the Nazis beginning their stranglehold on Germany...

[@mariefraher8725]

Got to see her live back in her prime. Lucky me...she was super live.

[@kippytx]

She is amazing

[@debbiechang5781]

Liza Minnelli is a very talented actor in addition to her vocal skills. She does comedy beautifully! In fact she is very funny in one of my favorite movies, “Arthur” and also in one of my favorite TV comedies, “Arrested Development”. Very talented woman who was never overshadowed by her famous mother! Great pick Stephen! 🌺✌️

[@dianelockwood9282]

Excellent movie. Saw it, can't count how many times...parents bought me the album and I wore it out....great music, great voices.

[@JP-lu9ed]

Yes, watch the whole film. Great music. Important story of a the time in portrays.

[@heydayma10513]

She Was Beautiful!

[@debitaylor2101]

The movie was called Cabaret, Joel Gray starred in it too. This is a scene from the movie

[@MichaelYoder1961]

The movie "Cabaret" is very dark, set in pre-WWII Germany, when the Nazis were starting their campaign against the Jews. Worth a watch. There are a lot of good songs and the choreography is incredible

[@mamb70]

I love her! Fantastic voice, stage presence. She also did a magnificent job doing New York, New York. That's definitely worth checking out. Her and her mom are superstars. The best of the best!

[@kathypellette2509]

so glad you heard this wonderful song by one of the greatest of all time and the movie was also brilliant.

[@marybailey-gates3116]

I absolutely love,love,love Liza Minnelli and Judy Garland and I can listen to their singing and acting for hours! I was only three years old when Liza Minnelli did Caberet but remembered Liza guest starring on the Muppets.Thank you so much for sharing this footage on KZbin ❤️

[@mikedickman7210]

Next from this film: Tomorrow Belongs To Me.....be afraid, be very afraid

[@MisterWondrous]

Hear hear! What a brilliant and moving performance. Thank you thank you!

[@ThePorpoisepower]

Watch the whole movie... It's amazing!

[@robertrothberg8678]

Liza with a z ended up being the greatest female entertainer.

[@frankiebowie6174]

Liza is a star because she makes everyone feel the way you do here. She’s singing and expressing herself to you and me. She was never the best singer in the world, but her storytelling ability was second to none.

[@melissakennedy1506]

This is so good! Thanks for sharing it. This was the moment Liza Minnelli made a name for herself as an independent artist. I’m always fascinated by the daughters of classic Hollywood, like Liza and Judy Garland, Carrie Fisher and Debbie Reynolds, Mariska Haggarty (Olivia from Law and Order SVU) and Jayne Mansfield. I think Drew Barrymore belongs on the list too, even though her father was a stage actor, she was basically raised by Hollywood and if Hollywood was royalty, she’s the most blue blooded person around. I can imagine that it’s a challenge to succeed as your own person, but Liza has done just that. She inherited her mom’s incredible voice, and unfortunately, her problem with alcohol as well.

[@amywhite9972]

If you've never watched Liza perform Single Ladies, you need to go watch it right now. It's awesome!! 😉

[@jeffbassin630]

Upon many viewings, this song and Liza's performance remains brilliant!

[@michellejackson6679]

This woman is a performer... her voice is her Mother's. and her father was one of the best directors ever back in the 40's.. way b4 my time.. but my parents raised me on this stuff lol . Love Liza

[@markharris1125]

A few weeks ago I went to see the new London production of 'Cabaret', the one that people are selling their souls to get tickets for. Eddie Redmayne plays the Emcee (seen briefly at the start of this clip) and Jessie Buckley plays Sally. I have to admit, though I knew this song, I didn't know the story at all - and it is actually really serious, important and moving. And this song . . . well, it has a special and bold place in the running order, let me just put it that way. I hope that the show has been/will be filmed for the cinema or broadcast. I would really really recommend you watch it if it comes out; to be honest, it's been a few weeks now and I'm still kind of shaken and haunted by it. They'll be changing the cast soon, I think. I may go back and see the new people, whoever they may be. (You can get cheapish tickets, I did.)

[@1996vivian]

One of my all time favorite movies! Great reaction, Harri!

[@iliapetrovic3582]

Your reaction was priceless, I still get chills listening to this song, you should see the movie, it’s brilliant. You should also Try “Mein Herr (with chair)”, “money, money”and “Maybe this Tim”from the same movie, you’ll see what a great all round performer she is and why she won the Oscar in 1973. But be sure to view the videos that are movie clips, you won’t be disappointed !

[@lipby]

You have to watch the whole movie. In context, this song is bittersweet. The whole movie is bittersweet.

[@Historian212]

I actually prefer her performance of “Mein Herr” in the movie. Liza also did the original - and, to me, the best - version of “New York, New York.” The thing about “Cabaret” is that the whole thing is ironic. You’d have to see the movie to know why. And you should see it. Although it’s very much of its era. The show is quite a bit older, and the story is older than that (from a play called “I Am A Camera”).

[@nozecone]

Which was based Christopher Isherwood's Berlin Stories. Btw, there's a great film version of I am a Camera.

[@arbitraryvegetarian9881]

You are right and I agree with all that you said. "Mein Herr" is the best first one to offer to a Liza "virgin".

[@jimmydaves]

You should review the clip “Mein Herr (with chair)”, from Cabaret.. It's Liza Minnelli at her best.

[@pushpak]

Seen Liza live twice. . . . incredible !

[@debitaylor2101]

Check out her and Frank Sinatra singing New York New York. She calls him Uncle Frank because their families were close

[@lynnej.9357]

My favourite movie of all time.

[@willmacintyre649]

Great performance! Great reaction!

[@ychaps]

Please watch the movie....its sometimes a hard watch because of the underlying theme...but each and every song in it is an amazing showstopper...Money,,Money...Two Ladies ...the opening number Wilkommen...brilliant and poignant movie.

[@rabrab3]

Classic!!

[@thomastimlin1724]

it has become stunning to me that the younger generation has no reference point to stars like this who are children of previous superstars. Liza Minelli is Judy Garland' s daughters. There was recent movie ""Judy" made, starring Renee Zellweger who won an Oscar for her performance, and yet one must look up Judy Garland ad figure out who she was...seems absurd to have to look her up, with so much media available now instead of 3 TV networks like we had. Liza won the Oscar for this movie, and her mother won a special juvenile Oscar. But Judy was snubbed for the performance of a lifetime in A Star is Born in favor of Grace Kelly in The Country Girl. Liza got revenge for her mother after Judy's death, in Cabaret as far as I am concerned.

[@daniellaplume3840]

Love her. Saw her Live

[@khoohockleong7585]

She got a Best Actress in the show. And so did Joel Grey, the supporting actor in the show. You should do a resction on Joel Grey. He appeared in the Engelbert Humperdinck show. Episode 4 or 3. Engelbert Humperdinck show has a lot of sketches and musical pieces involving his guest and you can do a selected reaction to the repertoire of these.

[@cathyortiz1280]

It was in Broadway first. The play id called "Cabaret." It actually has very dark parts with the Nazi's coming to take over.

[@fredhall6525]

There's a lot of cool Bob Fosse numbers on KZbin. I like The Aloof from "Sweet Charity".

[@EdwardGregoryNYC]

This is one of the finest film interpretations of a musical. The opening shows a reflection of the audience. During the course of the film, the Nazis take over Germany and they fade out to the reflection and the audience are Nazis. Subtilty reminding that this can (and does) happen here. The musical is as relevant today. In the musical, the stage featured a mirror as a backdrop so the audience in the theatre also serves as the audience in the play. After Liza's many battles with addiction, she still sang this song in concerts, but changed the closing to "When I go I'm NOT going like Elsie." In other words, to get out and truly enjoy life, you have to overcome your addictions.

[@albertjanik8532]

Please watch the movie - it's nothing less than fantastic and gives a great idea of Germany just before the second world war!

[@jonhenke1504]

The movie was called Cabaret.

[@bookwoman53]

Hi. The story was set during WW II. The war was raging outside but in the Kit Kat Club you could get away from it for an hour. As the Emcee says “In here life is beautiful”. The Sally character is meant to be English. Liza makes it her own.

[@kaianttila1619]

No, it was set before WW2. In 1930's.

[@sarahwalton2662]

Hi, yes this is my first time here today Harry. Do watch the movie Cabaret - it is bloomin amazing!! (Btw liked and subscribed :) have a lovely day)

[@donatord]

That’s the grand finale song, but the one you really want to look at is Mien Herr That’s the best number in the movie Super sexy What that woman can do with a chair

[@catschorus4684]

It's a fantastic film. This song comes right at the end, Sally's life is basically falling apart, she's deluded about her talent and this is her facing complete adversity.

[@kensolar69]

She's singing about the life in the Cabaret, while outside the doors 1930's, the Nazis were turning the country (Germany) into a nightmare.

[@rickkemp2749]

Judy Garland's most talented child.

[@peterlbaldwin511]

This powerful theme song from the movie of the same name "CABARET", was for many myself included; Liza's definitive screen role, but to really appreciate it you need to watch Bob Fosse's, ground-breaking movie. It was the first mainstream Musical that did not follow the Hollywood norm of a "Happy Ending". It is also set in a decadent 1930's Berlin, against the background of the sinister rise in popularity of "The Nazi Party"

[@catherinelynnfraser2001]

Nobody owns this song but Liza👄

[@ghytredstillghytred7617]

You should really watch the whole film. In context this song is *not* happy, but very very poignant. A great film.

[@davidwarren3152]

Very talented just like her mother Judy Garland
