Karaoke/Instrumental - Oliver Twist - Reviewing The Situation

[@StorytellerOfTheDead]

Of all the rolls that I've played, Fagin is by far my very favorite. I was made for his character and his character was made for me... I think I'll have to think it out again!

[@chrisgbresciani]

Just got this song assigned to me in my musical theatre class. Super excited to do it ! 😭😍

[@RestUnkown]

thanks for all these instrumentals! Im playing Fagin and these really helped me! You're a god among us :)

[@CrystalHaley]

You will do great as Fagin I know you will -Nancy Sykes (it's really crystal)

[@peeweedragonva9070]

Brilliant! I've been looking for this because I'm singing this song for a charity concert in a couple of weeks and I thank you so much for having it THANK YOU!

A man's got a heart, hasn't he? Joking apart -- hasn't he? And tho' I'd be the first one to say that I wasn't a saint... I'm finding it hard to be really as black as they paint... I'm reviewing the situation Can a fellow be a villain all his life? All the trials and tribulations! Better settle down and get myself a wife. And a wife would cook and sew for me, And come for me, and go for me, And go for me, and nag at me, The fingers, she will wag at me. The money she will take from me. A misery, she'll make for me... ... I think I'd better think it out again! A wife you can keep, anyway I'd rather sleep, anyway. Left without anyone in the world, And I'm starting from now So "how to win friends and to influence people" --So how? I'm reviewing the situation, I must quickly look up ev'ryone I know. Titled people -- with a station -- Who can help me make a real impressive show! I will own a suite at Claridges, And run a fleet of carriages, And wave at all the duchesses With friendliness, as much as is Befitting of my new estate... "Good morrow to you, magistrate!" Oh gawd! ... I think I'd better think it out again. So where shall I go -- somebody? Who do I know? Nobody! All my dearest companions Have always been villains and thieves... So at my time of life I should start turning over new leaves... ? I'm reviewing the situation. If you want to eat -- you've got to earn a bob! Is it such a humiliation For a robber to perform an honest job? So a job I'm getting, possibly, I wonder who my boss'll be? I wonder if he'll take to me... ? What bonuses he'l make to me... ? I'll start at eight and finish late, At normal rate, and all... But wait! ... I think I'd better think it out again. What happens when I'm seventy? Must come a time... Seventy. When you're old, and it's cold And who cares if you live or you die, Your one consolation's the money You may have put by... I'm reviewing the situation. I'm a bad 'un and a bad 'un I shall stay! You'll be seeing no transformation, But it's wrong to be a rogue in ev'ry way. I don't want nobody hurt for me, Or made to do the dirt for me. This rotten life is not for me. It's getting far too hot for me. Don't want no one to rob for me. But who will find a job for me, There is no in between for me But who will change the scene for me? ... I think I'd better think it out again! Hey!

[@RedKingCommandz]

this is awesome!!! cheers mate! :D

[@50s_fan]

I love the musical, movie, book. They're all amazing. I think I actually prefer the end to this one, because Fagin isn't executed and Dodger doesn't go to jail

[@דודכהן-מ7ט]

Thanks bro you helped me so much!!!

[@MrShahriyaratai]

Super backing track. Thanx

[@Joe143cool]

(Reprise) FAGIN Can somebody change? Possible Maybe it's strange, but it's possible For my dearest companions and treasures Have left them behind I'll turn a leaf over And who can tell who can tell what I may find (spoken) Yes, young man? And do I have the honor of your acquaintance? Lined? DODGER (spoken) Only the best. Lovely workmanship, ain't it? FAGIN I'm reviewing the situation DODGER Once the villain, you're a villain to the end FAGIN Your light fingers DODGER Your inspiration BOTH What a team DODGER Am I your partner FAGIN More a friend For your talent is employable So make your life enjoyable A world with pockets open wide Await your whim to grope inside DODGER Collections undetectable FAGIN We might retire respectable DODGER Together 'til our dying day FAGIN The living proof that crime can pay BOTH I think we'll have to think it out again! Hey!

[@edmccor]

I'll be playing Fagin in an upcoming production, and would love to get these same background tracks for practicing. The ones I've found on itunes all seem to have the tempo all out of whack... Where did you get these?

[@deltayouththeatre9408]

Where can I get these tracks?

[@YTStones]

the lyrics are in the description.If you know the tune, you can use those to follow along.

[@mrchuckmorris]

That's not how you define "karaoke" though. A karaoke track puts the words on the screen so that someone singing karaoke can use them for, you know, karaoke. Putting the lyrics in the description is simply "putting the lyrics in a video description of an instrumental track."

[@johnjames98]

There's always one pretentious so and so. It's a backing track to allow you to practice (just in case you needed that explaining...

[@skilletno1]

@4444lilliam4444 im already in one

[@mrchuckmorris]

Worthless "karaoke" track, as it does not allow one to sing along. It sounds well-written though, I guess.
