Now we know why does Lydia gets so attached to BJ's randomness and craziness.

[@h0w313]

OMG I never thought about that but it’s such a good observation👏

“Oh yea that makes sense”

[@madilynmae605]

"Well yeah, we were birds duh"

[@brycematrisciano2858]

i feel like this (obviously) gives us more of an idea to what her mother was like & i feel like we never really knew what she was like. i really enjoy this song, but i also understand certain songs get cut for a reason.

[@richie6037]

What reason?

[@brycematrisciano2858]

Cosplay Lemon probably for time

[@mateokunzer]

Comments are about how this song tells us what Lydia’s mom was like (true), but it also says what kind of woman Charles Deetz loved. Now I get why he chose Delia.

[@CR19731]

I’m SOBBING 😭

[@Rainbow_Pirate]

This is such an amazing song, I wish they had kept it. Not only do we finally get to know Emily (indirectly), but it also feels to me like having fun with Beetlejuice reminds Lydia a little of having fun with her mom... Dangerous, yet fun things, totally free of any conventions. Also, Lydia is a lot like her mom, only.. sadder? (Well, obviously)

[@anidleteen]

Yeah, it makes us understand why Lydia wasn't scared of ghosts and literally teased a demon then made friends with him

[@maiar2239]

@@anidleteen Well, Lydia is a gothic girl and the Maitlands are not grotesque, on the contrary they were very normal, the typical middle class couple. In the movie, we never know how Emily was and even so, Lydia is quite comfortable with paranormal and unusual things, she only gets scared of things that are very threatening/dangerous (like BJ transformed into a huge snake).

[@luisomarlagosandrade2298]

Love her voice when she says "Yeah.... we were birds?" She knows its weird but its still something she remembers so fondly. Makes Lydia (and her mom) so adorable. I understand why it was cut, too many songs about Lydia missing her mom. Still Im right there with everyone else saying I wish they would have kept this (together with dead mom reprise and Charles singing in Running away)

[@thisismyusername-fm6cy]

Yea it gives a nice background which I love

[@anniemcmullen55]

ugh i just want to see ONE show with the songs suicide note, goodbye emily deetz, dead mom reprise, the children we didnt have, and mama would.

[@SB-cr9fp]

I would KILL to see that

same!!!!

[@reece5592]

also “I’m Very Good at Running Cults” and “The Box” Ortho had two cut songs, TWO!!! it’s an outrage

[@broadwaysage4416]

And Emily would! Not running away but Charles part

All of Lydia's songs do this..

[@virgilsanders3760]

We never actually meet Emily but listening to this song makes me miss her too

[@Emilylovestrolls]

That’s my namE-

[@maxsflah]

This reminds me of my mom. She was the best mother I could ever ask for. I loved her and I still do. I was so happy when she was around but after she died, I felt like I lost everything. She was my whole world and she just left like that. I really miss her...

[@queeneliane7745]

2:07 woah that “talk” was incredible, it was so on pitch

[@edenaulenti585]

I wish they did not cut this because it helps us know what she was like and how strong Lydias bond with her mom was

[@speedyturtleproductions7537]

OMG the acoustic mixed with the drums makes this feel so homy and gives me the feels, and how happy lydia is talking about her mother and how shes using the past tense is to sad and amazing..

[@virgilsanders3760]

Dead mom and home hits different after hearing this song like damn I miss her too

i used to listen to this back at summer 2021, absolutely my favorite song.

[@zoe_murtagh_03]

1:18 Idk why, but I love that part

[@gold.dust.womann]

This songs reminds me a 100% of my mom. She is just like Emily (I mean we don’t pretend we’re birds lol) but everything Lydia said about her mom matches mine. I thank god everyday that she is still with me, I would really be lost without her

[@lemon_boy6320]

I didn't learn about this song until a couple weeks ago and it is so amazing, thank you so much for making a lyric video I usually I have a hard time understanding what people are saying in a song that I've never heard before so thanks.😄

[@anidleteen]

I love this version! The demo released made Emily seem way more psychotic, I was so concerned when I heard it 😹

[@siuqianbaxter5071]

Even I’m starting to miss Emily Deetz

[@NoName-yb7st]

Why does this make me cry? I have goosebumps

[@skyemunro3089]

i’m guessing this is VERY old footage, Sophia sounds so much more happy than in the newer footage of songs I think she gradually got tired of the hate and performing she just lost that emotion for singing. She’s so talented but she needed a break and that’s understandable

[@Manat_]

This is just a happy song

[@worm4165]

No, this was one of their first performances I think. This was in DC before they got to broadway

[@skyemunro3089]

o Random Again, she was more happier

[@worm4165]

@@skyemunro3089 haha, that's what I'm saying. This was in DC which means (as you've said), it's one of their old performances.

Does emily have a New York accent? Because at 2:43 it sounded like lydia was imitating it

[@elleelleshay6029]

Well I mean it is stated that they lived in New York, so I guess that makes sense

[@alexiac3747]

this song shouldn't have been cut :(

[@mariahruth1860]

this might sound silly but i saw presley ryan sing a song called suicide note, was it in the D.C. version?? if so, could you post that audio?

[@spoonfulofmusicaltheatre7983]

mariah ruth I think this song was cut before the D.C. run. In the audios I have it’s the same lines as in the Broadway version “by the time you read this, I Lydia Deetz, will be gone. I have no reason to stay. I’m an outcast. Friendless. Forsaken. Invisible”

Emily Deetz puts my mum to shame

[@cottagecre]

Her belts sound so healthy?

[@arianaecall]

I think this is before she found the rasp that really made Lydia an amazing character but she has said on zoom calls that her vocal coach made sure the belt was healthy

[@brooklynlogan9022]

Do you have the Actual video of this?
