I’m so glad that “All You Wanna Do” made him so uncomfortable because the opening is literally describing her being groomed as a 13 year old by one man, assaulted later on by another (gets what he wants and be won’t take no), realizing from another man she’s viewed as an object, and by the last one knowing that’s all she’ll only ever be seen as that for all her life and most of history.

Has he seen it live since this video? Because the liver version ends dramatically from the cast recording! Howard Ho did a great video on breaking it down, but where as the cast recording has this sort of pristine conclusion like a traditional pop song, in the live version K completely breaks down at the end and erratically sing-screams "Cause all you wanna do is" makes the kissing now, but instead of a satisfying release of breath, she makes a startling gasp as if to signify the last breath she took.

Personally “All you wanna do” has always been very dark. People tend to joke about it’s sexual nature when they hear it for the first few times, but it’s heartbreaking to actually think about all she went through in her life.

I remember people were using it show their ex and then who they moved onto when K Howard goes “tall, large Henry the 8th, supreme head of the Church of England” cause they don’t understand what this song is actually about. That’s just me being a die hard Broadway fan though and getting mad when the same people who make fun of theater nerds are using songs from musicals 🤷🏼‍♀️

[@daisy3525]

Aimee's studio version of "all you wanna do" is just breathtaking with the way she hits those absolutely wild notes, but if you're interested, I'd recommend watching a live recorded version of Sam Pauly in the same role. It's the same song, but while her notes aren't always as flawless as Aimee's, the emotion she puts into it and the way she Acts Out the song is absolutely hratwrenching. It's definitely worth a watch, at least once, to really feel this song hit as hard as it can on the emotional level. Definitely recommend.

Fun fact - they sampled green sleeves because the original poem the lyrics come from was said to have been written by Henry the 8th to Anne Boleyn! Although it’s nowadays regarded as a myth. The whole musical is full of references and is basically if all the queens became a girl band during the afterlife, with each one of them being heavily inspired on 1 famous female pop artist.

Oh, definitely I saw six on Broadway, and after the song there was a huge silence in the room for a good couple of seconds the audience didn’t know what to do with themselves, or how to clap after what they just took and it was a lot to take in, but like Despite how emotional it was, it was also super powerful and the songs just generally good! I love how we get to dive deep in and told us what it was like for the queens, and what it was like with Henry and all the different trials and tribulations they went through, but at the end of the show, at least still came up and empowered each other and lifted them up instead of tearing each other down.

[@SodaPop-sw3vs]

The "birds and the bees" in All you wanna do, was to represent the fact Katherine was extremely young and most likely didnt understand sexual deeds.

[@queendom7125]

So if you want historical context on Katherine Howard, the “All you wanna do” song, here it is: So Katherine was executed for an affair she was having with a member of Henry VIII’s court, Thomas Culpeper. She was put on trial and investigated, which is when it was discovered that she’d had sex with two other men before her marriage to Henry, which was Henry Mannox and Francis Dereham. Deeeham and Culpeper were both executed with Katherine. There’s a lot of debate on what exactly happened in Katherine’s relationship with these men, because Katherine was labeled as a whore and temptress, much in the way Anne Boleyn was, after her death by Henry and his court. It is believed that at the very least she was groomed and molested by Dereham, and there’s a decent possibility Culpeper assaulted Katherine, considering the fact that he bragged about seducing Katherine in his letters and he had a history of assaulting women. Katherine was as young as 17 when she was killed, and she met Henry when she was as young as 15 while Henry was 49. All you want to do goes into that, with Katherine describing how she was groomed and molested by these men, from a very young age, before being killed for “allowing it to happpen”. It’s a very sad song, and yes, a bop

'All You Wanna Do" is the most unexpected song. It has this 'fun' beat but the most heartbreaking lyrics. Especially Sam Pauly's version - no disrespect to the other Queens, they're phenomenal.

[@bananna5487]

She’s also the high harmony in ex wives

[@whitekitties4224]

Sam Pauly’s performance was so heartbreaking! I thought she was in actual pain for a minute

[@feiverses]

Fun fact: Katherine Howard, the character that sang All You Wanna Do is actually the youngest queen that ever married Henry the 8th, she was 19 when she was beheaded. Another fun fact: Anne Boelyn in history was said to be beheaded because she had an affair, when she really was beheaded because she didn’t have a son. Henry’s entire intention was to have a son, but both his first two wives couldn’t fulfill that. Actually in Ex Wives Jane says that she was the favorited wife, because she did have a son but a few days later she died due to birth complications.

[@Drenched_InPurple]

And the only reason Jane was Henry's favourite was cuz she died to early for him to get bored

[@Jasmine04240]

The queens in the musical actually have their songs (and outfits) based off of pop divas. For Get down, Anna of Cleves is inspired by Rihanna and Nicki Minaj. For All You Wanna Do, Katherine Howard, is based off of Britney Spears and her clothing design is based off of Ariana Grande. For Don't Lose Ur Head, Anne Boleyn, is based off of Avril Lavigne. I think it's cool as you can really see the influence and the balance between historical leader queens and our modern day entertainment queens. All being pretty badass. Other Queens: Catherine of Aragon - Beyonce Jane Seymour - Adele, I think Sia too Catherine Parr - Alicia Keys

[@jamiehood850]

Boleyn is mainly based on Lily Allen. Christina's voice in the original sounds almost exactly like Lily's. Aragon is also has latin pop and salsa elements, so J-Lo and Shakira are also inspirations. Parr is also partially based on another well-known British singer, Emeli Sande.

[@hnnhplmr95]

8:29 it is about how Katherine Howard was always used for her body and it hints at her being groomed ( hence the words “ever since I was a child I’d make the boys go wild” and the fact she was a minor and had adults coming on to her).

Tbh when I first listened to the song, I thought she meant boys as in boys her age. Like typical school ground crushes. Realizing the harsh truth so quickly really set the tone of the song for me.

I have a soft spot for HoS because it was the one musical theatre piece my vocal coach really believed in me for. She knew I liked musical theatre and I think she could tell that I was growing bored at lessons, so she asked me to give her a list of musicals that I liked. Heart of Stone was the song she selected out of the options. I worked my ass off for some of those notes and rhythms. It's a song I didn't really view as difficult, but the experience of getting it down to the best of my ability really showed me the work and commitment it takes to learn these songs.

[@samanthakelly718]

Heart of Stone is literally my guilty pleasure song. I love the musical for its love-letter-ness to the queens and I’m aware Jane’s character has been criticized for not getting much into who she was outside of a loving wife. I’m aware of that but I’m sorry it’s just so gut-wrenching. The character of Jane in the musical is so tragic, with the idea of a woman who continued loving and never let her spirit break despite her “true love” very clearly using her. It just… it never fails to make me cry. Especially live.

[@dantethepotato9263]

420th like yooooooo

[@MDaggatt]

The reason the "six wives" sounds so strange is because it's using the notes of Greensleeves, even though they don't really fit into the song, showing how their relationship to Henry (which is represented by Greensleeves throughout the show) doesn't fit into their lives. However, in the end, they sing an altered version of Greensleeves that does fit the song, showing how their lives are better without him and they reclaimed their story.

Like get down is my favorite live performance but one of my least favorite on the soundtrack. It doesn't do it justice with the drops that happen in stage. highly recomend

[@lukaseldenrust2637]

I think that’s partly because the soundtrack has 1. Different people from live (Anne Boleyn’s west end, forgetting her name rn, has a more grungy voice and more of a rock like performance throughout the whole song while the cast recording slowly builds that up so that when she’s in her final moments she’s able to rock out as much as she wants while at the start her life was being controlled by the men in it, thus the doll like dancing)

Iove the detail in All You Wanna Do where Katherine switches from "maybe this is it" with Mannox to "I know this is it" with Dereham.

You need to watch “all you wanna do is” live the emotion she brings to the song is amazing

[@coffepot4800]

You need to make a part 2! This musical is wayyyy too good

[@audlyartzy2377]

Those are literally my three favorite songs of the album: Get down, All you want do, and don’t lose your head; I feel blessed to get them all in one.

[@Miss_Myth]

So many here mentioned Sam, & some said Andrea, I'd honestly recommend listening to the entire Broadway version. BUT even if you don't, you absolutely *have* to hear Brittany Mack's version of Get Down. It hits , and it's in my top 3 favorite songs in the show purely because of her. 💜💜💜💜💜💜

[@edencarroll468]

If you were wondering, they actually are coming to australia and new zealeand around november december this year, mostly capital cities though, although i am going to see it live and am extremely excited

[@kaitlinmills6412]

PLEASE listen to Sam Pauly sing All You Wanna Do live, her performance is so emotional at the end it's honestly devastating

[@Ewifications]

you should react to Annapantsu. she's done a couple covers from this musical and she does them VERY well. all her covers are so beautiful!

[@cha0tic_g0ld]

All you want to do is actually a very dark song, and there's another version of it that really tugs at the heartstrings at the end vers/chorus that you should really give a listen to, even for something other than a video.

[@mitsimotsi]

You should listen to Hadestown!! Its such an amazing musical, the music is stunning and the story is based around greek mythology!

[@guilhermefreire8352]

you gotta watch "All you wanna do" in the performance of the show itself, the amount of emotion she conveys to it is phenomenal

[@SodaPop-sw3vs]

I was gonna request this on the next vid you upload but I guess I don't have to ask now

[@MathewMcKenna]

actually i just read ur mind

[@iamextremelytired]

I know a lot of people have said this already, but I would recommend watching Sam Pauly's version of All You Wanna Do. She's not the original, but I personally believe that her version has a lot more emotion put into it.

[@Cloudy._.Reality]

Okay but like WE NEED a part two before I rlly want you to listen to “I don’t need your love “ it SLAPs

[@nukiszn]

oh my GOD this musical completely skipped my mind but it's one of if not my favorite musical of all time, im so happy you've done this

[@Angaurwen]

One of the interesting touches they did with each queen was modelled their look and sound after some modern ladies in pop: Beyonce, Lily Allen, Adelle, Rihana (I think?), Ariana Grande and Alicia Keys. I love hearing the soul in number 6 for that reason.

[@jamiehood850]

I would definitely recommend doing a second part and checking out the other songs. Heart of Stone, particularly, is stunning, and Natalie May Paris's whistle notes make me shiver every time. No Way is also a complete bop and Renée Lamb is a fucking powerhouse. I Don't Need Your Love and Six are really good conclusions, and Izuka Hoyle brings a really beautiful soulful sound to her song.

[@meganb0711]

seeing all you wanna do live was insane but absolutely amazing it hits so different how serious the topic is when you see the choreography

[@ericalizbell]

If you watch it live, the harmonies just hit different, they give you chills every time it’s litterally amazing

[@TriXJester]

You should still do a part 2 with the 3 other queens even if their songs arent as popular (plus the last song is such a good song to end with)

[@irenekat]

As much as I like the official recorded version of SIX, the live version is just so much more real? I don't know how to describe it but it just hits different, especially "All you wanna do" Either way I'm in love with this musical and I can't stop listening to it :D

[@audreyj8366]

I really hope you listen to all the songs because “Heart of stone” made me cry the first time I listened and the vocals pop off. Also “House of Hollben” is just so funny 😂

[@artyalpaca3950]

Six was actually doing an Aus/NZ tour in mid 2020 but it got canceled (for obvious reason) i had tickets but i have no idea when they'd be coming back

[@soniachapple3141]

There are plans to come back later this year (2022) melbourne or Sydney

[@mycatshuman]

I'm so happy you reacted to this! I absolutely love this musical and all the songs. They really all sound phenomenal!

[@Iloveowlets]

you HAVE to watch the live versions of these, especially for All You Wanna Do because the guttural performance of it just isn’t done justice in the recording. the Samantha Pauly version is highly regarded

[@kaitslyn]

I’m so happy you reacted to this! It’s my favorite musical and I’ve been hoping you’d listen to it

[@Mail_System]

You should really listen to the stage version of these songs. Especially All You Wanna Do. There's so much emotion that's left out in the studio recordings it's kinda sad

[@alexy_08]

almost everyone has said it but i’m gonna say it again you should watch Samantha Pauly’s All You Wanna Do. ON ANOTHER NOTE, Brittany Mack’s Get Down IS SO SO SO GOOD. Like its impossible not to get hyped at her performance. I recommend watching her version too 😌

[@kelseyc3425]

I'm loving all these musical reactions

[@starmajor64]

SIX is my favourite musical, I'm so glad you reacted to my favourite songs out of it as well!!

[@justaperson1232]

What’s brilliant is that during this show the band is on stage with them and during the show you really get to show appreciation for them

[@akkia4967]

Bruh you HAVE to do a part 2! You think those are good? Wait until you listen to the rest and come across "heart of stone" and "I don't need your love". Chefs kiss. Trust me. Worth it. You need to do a part 2

[@Mimi-lj1mu]

six is the story about king henry IIV six wives singing in a battle to see whos the best like. wife and their stories. and in order to remember all their endings it’s divorced, beheaded, died, divorced, beheaded, survived! the second beheaded wife was anne boleyn who was beheaded for accusations of cheating ! im pretty sure although that they werent true and henry just wanted an excuse to get married to another of his wives ( jane seymour) and tortured a servant until he lied and revealed a “relationship” with anne ! but ironic how henry wanted a heir (a son) but instead he got the most powerful queen queen elizabeth I ! her song was dont lose your head. she also was a lady in waiting for henrys first wife catherine of aragon. (guess where henry got his wives from. yea all his past wives lady in waitings.) because at the time henry couldn’t divorce he broke off from the pope and he and anne created the church of england with a whole new bible and all and boom sent catherine of aragon to a nunnery and married anne. the second divorce is anne of cleves her song was get down the whole story is before a wedding they gotta get their “picture” (painting really) taken and henry was a really big romance guy so he decided to dress as a hobo and meet with anne? now henry had gone thru an an accident that probs made him 1. infertile? just alot of shit and he was considered “less attractive” then in his younger years so when anne saw this hobo looking guy, she ignored him! henry was so hurt he decided to make the excuse of that anne doesnt look like her picture and simply divorced. she probs got the best ending cause she got a seat in the court and a mansion. her and henry became good friends actually !! and for the other song u listened to, all you wanna do! that one is about katherine howard (i think henry liked catherines) she was around 18? when she died im very unsure but she was married to henry! and like anne boleyn some stuff went out of her cheating or so and ultimately got beheaded :/

[@SodaPop-sw3vs]

HISTORY STUDENT DONT COME @ ME!! THIS IS FROM MEMORY FROM YEARS AGO AND THE MUSICAL!! Catherine Aragon- the one who was almost forced into a nunary by Henry because she couldn't preduce a male heir. But due to being Catholic it was against her religion for Henry to remarry after divorce. Anne Boleyn- she was a Mistress (?) While Henry was still with Aragon. Eventually Henry broke it off with Catherine, but Henry wasn't the best. So eventually Anne was accused of treason, by apparently flirting with other men. She was then beheaded. Jane Seymour- she died of natural causes after giving birth to her son. So people say she was the only one Henry truly loved, but the probability of Henry divorcing her if the child wasn't make was quite high so I disagree. Anna Cleves- idk much about her. But, I believe she was one of the women that had their portraits painted. And then Henry would choose the most beautiful to court and marry. Henry chose Anna, but she didn't look as good as her painting so he divorced her. I do not know if she produced any children. Katherine Howard- some poeple say she was sexually assaulted multiple time while growing up. Eventually she met Henry, everything was fine. But he was just lazy and didn't really care. I can't fully remember. But I think Katherine either cheated or was sexually assaulted again by a subordinate of Henry's. She was then beheaded. Catherine Parr- the only wife to out live Henry, the surviver. I do not know much about her, so I don't know if she produced any kids. all I know is that she lived longer than Henry. HISTORY STUDENT DONT COME @ ME!! THIS IS FROM MEMORY FROM YEARS AGO AND THE MUSICAL!!

[@frauleinzuckerguss1906]

This was lovely to watch. If you feel up for it, I'd love to see you react to the rest of the songs, especially No Way

[@CaseyCassidy]

you should do a reaction to the whole thing, because live it's Incredible and their little bits in between the songs are all Amazing tbh.

[@ceciwynne4154]

Obviously no hate to the original cast who made these recordings, after all, they are what brought this musical to my life which I can’t get out of my head, but listen to the Broadway versions of All You Wanna Do (Samantha Pauly) and Don’t Lose Your Head (Andrea Macasaet) because personally they have my favorite versions of their songs. But without the original cast, this wouldn’t be one of my top 5 favorite musicals, so no hate to them either ❤️🎶💜

[@bleh8712]

I saw this live in dublin with the tour in 2021 and omg wow it’s blew me away how incredible it was live, my favourite musical got even better would definitely recommend going to see

[@megan2098]

Just saw this show for the first time live last night. AMAZING. And now I get to enjoy your reactions too :)

[@alexlomax5815]

FYI just to let you know the original cast o f six is performing in London for 2 days and Aimme who is heard on all i wanna do is reprising the role of Katherine Howard so if you wanting to see it done live i would fully suggest checking that out. Also the broadway version with Sam Pauly is acc killer too!

[@jj_mang0144]

Mathew with Anna’s song: “This is really good! I’d put this on my playlist 😊“ Mathew with Howard’s song: *Pure disgust and shock 😀😀*

[@user-gm3qi1gx5p]

I saw Six live in London at the end of November - it was amazing! one of the favourite things I've ever watched tbh

[@danicaperkinson1960]

I was so hoping you'd react to all the songs because they're all beautiful/amazing

[@oliviapetrov9914]

Like with Kathrine Howard's story it really is super dark and people in history messed her up so much when she was just a kid and I love how All You wanna Do plays with that and shows people the darkness even though it's really poppy and watching people as they figure out it's not a happy song is really interesresting.

[@oliviahoey8781]

I went to see the Irish show in October and I have to say, you get a completely different experience. It's like they have dragged you into a spice girls concert instead of a musical about Tudor women's trauma. I would 1000% recommend!

[@alicint_ia7891]

i saw six live a couple years ago, some of the best vocals and so much raw emotion, especially in all you wanna do it was so amazing one of the best experiences ever
