Best description of Santa I've ever heard. If I ever have kids...that just might be how the stories go.

Love how Jack was commanding yet kind.

[@Shadywolf09]

When I was a kid, I thought he was going to be scary and cruel. I was very surprised that he was kind and polite, but I instantly loved him. My favorite character from the movie.

The saxophone parts in this song are a gift.

[@CJCroen1393]

"Things to tantalize my brain!" ... I think the writers made Jack say things like that intentionally just to confuse us.

[@SAM_ARTHUR_CL0VVNDOLL]

Lyrics: Listen, everyone There were objects so peculiar, They were not to be believed All around, things to tantalise my brain, It's a world unlike Anything I've ever seen And as hard as I've tried I can't seem to describe Like a most improbable dream But you must believe when I tell you this It's as real as my skull and it does exist. Here, let me show you This is a thing called a present The whole thing starts with a box (A box? Is it steel?) (Are there locks?) (Is it filled with a pox?) (A pox? how delightful a pox) If you please. Just a box with bright coloured paper And the whole things topped with a bow (A bow? but why?) (How ugly) (What's in it, what's in it?) That's the point of the thing not to know! (It's a bat) (Will it bend?) (It's a rat) (Will it break?) (Perhaps it s the head that I found in the lake) Listen now you dont understand That's not the point of Christmas land! Now pay attention. We pick up an oversized sock And hang it, like this, on a wall (Oh yes, does it still have foot?) (Let me see, let me look?) (Is it rotted and covered in gook?) Um, let me explain There's no foot inside, but there's candy Or sometimes it's filled with small toys (Small toys?) (Do they bite, do they snap, or explode in the sack?) (Or perhaps they just jump out and scare girls and boys!) (What a splendid idea, this Christmas sounds fun) (I fully endorse it, let's try it at once!) Everyone please, now not so fast There's something here that you don't quite grasp Well, we may as well give them what they want. And the best, I must confess I have saved for the last, For the ruler of this Christmas land Is a fearsome king with a deep mighty voice Least, thats what I have come to understand And I've also heard it told that he is Something to behold Like a lobster huge and red And he sets out a sleigh with his reindeer on Carting bulging sacks with his big, great arms That is so I've heard it said And on a dark, cold night Under full moonlight He flies into the fog Like a vulture in the sky And they call him Sandy Claws Well at least they're excited But they dont understand That special kind of feeling In Christmas land Oh well

Who plays the role of Jack? He owes this character.

[@samjean1122]

Chris Sarandon is the speaking role for Jack Skellington, however, his singing voice is actually performed by Danny Elfman himself. Thats the guy who composed the music for this and other Tim Burton films. Cool, right?

[@RachelBlabs]

I used to listen to the movie in French. I've watched it so many times I know all the lyrics by heart. Listening to the English version just became so weird. Especially the songs. Although, I love both versions. I think they translated it very well.

[@jessicakeenan9256]

This scenario is what it feels like when you’re absent ONE DAY from school…. A group project worth 35% of your grade is announced…and your partners were chosen by the teacher…Jack is one of your partners…has no clue…but you run with it…because Jack is so confident & passionate…. Only on presentation day do you learn how wrong, wrong, wrong you were to trust Jack!!!! 🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂🤣🤣😂🤣

[@jessicakeenan9256]

“Why did we theme our outfits around Periodic Table Elements, again Jack? No other group themed their outfits…what in the hell is going on? Let me see the assignment sheet…. Oh my God Jack…you said creativity had the biggest portion of the grade JACK…. I got stared at by perfect strangers waiting for the bus…today…. People ON THE BUS made fun of me!!!! IT’S NOT LIKE IT’S SPIRIT WEEK YOU Jerk!” 😅😂😂🤣🤣🤣😂🤣😂

[@jessicakeenan9256]

This scenario hasn’t necessarily happened to me, either…. I was the Lone Wolf…. I only worked in a small group when forced. Lol

[@jessicakeenan9256]

I did a song about The Element Uranium (To the Melody of the theme song to The Brady Bunch)…sang it aloud in 8th Grade Science. Also made a 1st 25 Periodic Table Elements…Advent Calendar in 10th Grade Chemistry…. I was a hard core student-scholar-nerd growing up…. 😅😅😅😅

It's a disease. Like Chicken Pox or Small Pox. Basically, they're asking if it carries an infectious agent.

ohhh when I first heard it, it sounded like fox
