It would've killed the moment, but how funny would it be if a librarian walked up to Penny after and shushed him like "no singing in the library please"

[@90CJk]

James Moriarty There was suppose to be a scene after the song where Penny would get stuck with extra hours of work, for how long he died and didn’t report to the underworld. And he would have said Oh fuck love. But thought it would have been in bad taste and went back to Quentin’s group for the end.

[@lordfarquaad8267]

I totally thought about that too.

[@dnicole39]

I was honestly thinking the same thing or at least have a librarian give him a confused/dirty look

[@heather8374]

have you ever seen 'unbreakable kimmy schmidt' there's a scene where one character is listening to something on head phones and making all these facial expressions and a librarian comes over to him and points out a sign that says 'no face journey's please.'

This scene right here made this my favorite Magicians episode.

[@richardgarcia4269]

Idk man, that whole bit they did about the mosaic to find the 3rd key and Eliot and Quentin living an entire lifetime as a result was pretty breathtaking for me. This pretty much outshines the musical episode of Buffy tho.

[@dwainpannell8366]

until they did take on me

[@BellaMichel]

Me too. I love the meaning of unity too. :)

[@ephraimanukwu3748]

My Favorite Episode

[@andreydikit652]

Kady and Elliot were the MVPs of this scene.

[@rockmuzik23]

Don't u mean penny? :

[@quintinhighsmith3807]

Potato Chips Elliot kills all the musical parts tbh

[@naturesdefiante01]

0:28 The moment Katy thinks "oh you fucks" and realises shes taking lead haha. This whole ep gave me the biggest smile. Honestly love this show!

[@stormysheppard3368]

PeppeRoshi Pizza I’m so glad someone else noticed Katy’s reaction when they start the background singing 😂

[@kevinwaag9976]

same i even wanna read the books now

[@M0GL1BE4R]

Katie and Elliot’s voice are so good this whole episode was incredible

[@Shadowman4710]

Yeah, we all knew Hale Appleman could sing after last year's "Music Hath Charms" but Jade Taylor really knocked it out of the ballpark this episode.

[@andreydikit652]

@bobsixtynine Tbh, I only knew it was Kady after turning on subtitles.

[@JFerenczy]

Agreed, Jade Taylor (Kady) and Hale Appleman (Eliot) really did an amazing job. Both have singing and musical experience in their background. Jade Taylor helped Summer Bishil (Margo) during the Les Mis bit before Eliot's sword fight. They did a really amazing job of making the song and the singing of it poignant and integral to the plot in a non hokey way. They showcased their best singers nicely, without ignoring the rest of the cast. Really well done all around. Loved Penny's comment at the beginning, ;)

[@seanhunter9334]

Also Julia's voice. I wish she sang more.

[@hamadajedou8711]

Agree

[@itiszach8687]

I loved when Julia just randomly started singing and Fen was like so confused because she couldn't hear the others so just out of no where she starts singing a song that she doesn't even know.

[@patrickong492]

Zakeh H lol and it wasn’t a coincidence. She was the only one that sang on set.

[@Lashly273]

@Hans Hanzo that character was a faerie

[@jagossone]

She also started in the middle of the song and not from the beginning

[@tango31313]

When josh starts singing, Julia hugs the girls and the ship is seen soaring......wow, made me tear up

[@migueldzul8149]

She's a fairy she just had cured from her imprisonment curse with her goddesshood magic.

[@oosiee7550]

"..every single one of us has to sing" I *LOVE* the uneasiness and dread all over Q's face while saying that 😂 😂 😢 😢 I want him back! 😭😭😭

[@MellieInVideoland]

I love how they kept all their original voices and the fact each song lyrics matches up as well with where each character is in the show emotionally 😍😍

[@angiemail4624]

MellieInVideoland OMG! I NOTICED THAT TOO! It made it that much better!

[@alienjesus796]

Wdym the auto tune comes on a bit thick sometimes

[@pforce2000]

How Alice and Quentin are looking right at each other as they sing give love one more chance.

[@OhWaker]

How Penny says turn away like a blind man, like how he often tried to stay away or stay neutral with the others' hijinks.

[@ilEditore]

I was a bitch.. I edited this episode

[@AmbiNerd]

Elliots voice is winning!

[@MariGold371]

His falsetto is on point

[@Lamouettekamikaze]

Only Fen can sing as well as him

[@OhWaker]

His falsetto really gives me Queen vibes in a fantastic way.

The Magicians is the only show I can think of that gets musical scenes in without seeming cheesy, and idk how they did it. The scenes of the characters singing are some of my favorites in the show.

[@heatrs4717]

If you arent watching the magicians right now I dont know what you're doing with your life. This is easily the best show on tv currently.

[@relaxedguy0606]

S4 ending crushed my soul :'(

[@kil493]

HeatRS little did little 1 year ago you know Quentin would die

[@paramitch]

It was for me, until the S4 finale. That's all I'll say. I still miss it. But I've never gone back. Meanwhile, this is my single favorite moment from the entire show.

[@magnus_40k]

Elliot is my favorite character and the episode where he and Q go back in time and live a whole life is my favorite

[@cheesebessetti9287]

That episode was pure joy till I started crying when Elliot died.

[@Amitabha108]

Peaches and plumbs...

[@Revontulet-Druid]

This song was perfect for them because even though they are all "under pressure" they still have hope and each other. Their United even far apart and the lines they sing line up perfectly with what their going through. Julia is terrified of learning what this world is all about, Elliot and Margo hoping for a higher tomorrow, Penny and Katie talking about their love, being on the fence for too long, Q and Alice's last dance, hoping to give love one more chance. Josh feeling alone like he was left on the street wondering what his place is.....this was a great homage to Bowie and the characters personal journeys

[@adriansapp10]

Sam Sanchez this show is amazing and even though it has some bumps it still manages to make the show seem sooo ✨magical✨

I don't even know 1 taylor song but i dont know anyone who hasnt heard a queen song.

[@pennymcmillan6238]

It was fantastic when Queen and David Bowie did it together

[@ZakanaHachihaCBC]

Chekhov’s Gun said it be David Bowie. Though it would have been a sick throw back if it was Taylor Swift.

[@AladdinSane13]

After Bowie’s passing, it was hard to listen to any of his albums. Eventually, I learned to accept it. Now, after watching this scene, I teared up. I can’t explain why. I loved this scene and I love how they honored both Bowie and Mercury through it.

[@cynthiaward2770]

I teared up as well. So much emotion

[@annEngr]

Me too man! It was truly powerful! It hit me in the heart!

[@lewislemon2107]

Glad I want the only one who teared up during this. I've been hooked on this version of under pressure since I first heard it.

[@callousphysicaltheatre8244]

In spite of the facts that - I hate "Glee" style song numbers as they are oftentimes completely cornball, I've never considered this song as one of Bowie's best, and that there is only one truly likeable character (Elliot, the hedonistic) - I was emotionally moved and had to wipe some tears. But then, when Bowie died I had a similar unexpected strong emotional response.

[@18thcenturyfan]

It's because Bowie's version is already magic, but this version is COOPERATIVE magic (which, as we all know, makes everything more...tingly) 😍

[@whiiir]

Under Pressure and Take On Me are two of favourite songs and that The Magicians did both of them was really something.

[@cassielanael5442]

Oh, how I need more of Hale Appleman's singing in my life.

[@ilEditore]

I edited this episode, and it was a trial to try to fit all the story elements into the fixed length of the song, but thanks to great writing and directing, it all worked!

[@buzz6239]

This cover gives me literal tingles.. especially Hale/Eliot, Jade/Kady and Stella/Julia's parts. They hit me kinda deep, in a good way. I love this show so much. I miss it.

[@enantiodromiac]

I mean...I get tingles when I really to find a toilet.....so...

[@laughingisgoodforyou3969]

I absolutely love Julia’s part. It’s so beautiful and just touches my heart for some reason.

[@cheesebessetti9287]

This show is my life, and this now one of my favorite scenes in the show! Makes me so happy when I watch it!! They took a bunch of serious moments, a fairy bleeding and Elliot and Margo about to die then boom MUSICAL TIME! Loved it

[@endlessvoid7952]

Julia's scene is truly hilarious. Just staring right at another actor singing at their face. At everyone else is dancing around and what not. Awesome episode and scene either way 👌

[@loki1456]

I can't stop coming back to this scene. My favorite song of all time being sung on one of my favorite TV shows of all time? Definitely one of my top ten Magians moments 👌

[@reidyo5404]

Not the “take on me” song when Quentin is dead ?

[@nickiam_]

Previous was mute. This one is full of music. Go on The magicians! I like it!

[@lordfarquaad8267]

It's the Buffy approach.

[@Starlit-Music]

[Lyrics: from original song.] [Intro: Freddie Mercury] Mmm num ba de Dum bum ba be Doo buh dum ba beh beh [Verse 1: David Bowie & Freddie Mercury] Pressure pushing down on me Pressing down on you, no man ask for Under pressure that burns a building down Splits a family in two Puts people on streets [Bridge: Freddie Mercury] Um ba ba be Um ba ba be De day da Ee day da- that's okay [Chorus: David Bowie & Freddie Mercury] It's the terror of knowing what this world is about Watching some good friends screaming, "Let me out!" Pray tomorrow gets me higher Pressure on people, people on streets [Verse 2: David Bowie & Freddie Mercury] Day day de mm hm Da da da ba ba Okay Chipping around, kick my brains around the floor These are the days it never rains but it pours Ee do ba be Ee da ba ba ba Um bo bo Be lap People on streets Ee da de da de People on streets Ee da de da de da de da [Chorus: David Bowie & Freddie Mercury] It's the terror of knowing what this world is about Watching some good friends screaming, 'Let me out' Pray tomorrow gets me higher, high Pressure on people, people on streets [Bridge: David Bowie & Freddie Mercury] Turned away from it all like a blind man Sat on a fence but it don't work Keep coming up with love but it's so slashed and torn Why, why, why? Love, love, love, love, love Insanity laughs under pressure we're breaking [Verse 3: Freddie Mercury] Can't we give ourselves one more chance? Why can't we give love that one more chance? Why can't we give love, give love, give love, give love Give love, give love, give love, give love, give love? [Outro: David Bowie] Because love's such an old-fashioned word And love dares you to care for The people on the (People on streets) edge of the night And love (People on streets) dares you to change our way of Caring about ourselves This is our last dance This is our last dance This is ourselves under pressure Under pressure Under pressure Pressure

[@K3nBrad]

All I can picture is a librarian saying "shhhhh, you're in a library"

[@TimothyBrannan]

Why this is 100% superior to the "Buffy' Musical episode. At the end of the Buffy ep everyone was more divided than they were when they went in. In the Magicians everyone, even Josh and Penny, are all united. Maybe for the first time in a long time. Bravo Magicians! Bravo.

[@Shadowman4710]

I'm going to disagree to a certain degree here. I think the Buffy musical "Once More With Feeling" is superior to this one...as a musical. It was far more ambitious (using all original musica as opposed to covering existing ones). Having said that, I totally agree with the overall themes of the episodes and the seasons. Season Three of "The Magicians" has been about unity and sacrifice for the good of the group. As a season of television it's considerably better than S6 of BTVS, which while it had tremendous highs, also sank to really bad lows. Right now this show is about as good as anything SyFy has ever put on...with the exception of "The Expanse."

[@4Tom4lepus4]

Why does one have one to be better than the other? We can praise this incredible episode without putting another incredible musical episode down^^ Both had different themes and attempted different things and succeeded with that!

[@deepSea__]

That was the literal purpose of both of those shows to do just that? Especially since Buffy was forced to sing through a demon so...?

[@spike3585]

Eh, I prefer the songs in Buffy’s musical. Plus, I like that they used original music rather than cover existing songs.

[@marocat4749]

It is, through lexx brigadoomis even better. Like its anoperatte in the show that makes sense,because lexx is weird. And its telling the backstoryfrom the alreadymost tragic great character. And has its own theme .

[@Grimmeow0001]

They go to a school for magic

[@migueldzul8149]

The handsigns are called "props". The first year in Brakebills is about learning props to cast/direct magic and later on they get to learn what their magic speciality is. Props are different for each magic science. Hands are important, just as every finger has a purpose in casting different spells.
