I actually laughed out loud!

These are great. Keep them coming!

I kinda like the ending of Nobody’s Side… reminds me of a lot of ALW songs especially from Joseph. Also fits with the ABBA style and still retains a “musical-theatre” feel without being too over-the-top sounding.

This video is so full of sassafras it cracks me up. Seth, you are genius.

I'm so happy for a new term I can use with my musical theatre students "sassy syncopation"

Great video and very informative. Your enthusiasm and passion is lovely to see.

I knew what you meant without spelling “ r i t a r d “ Thanks for this

I would literally watch Seth deconstruct anything

This is amazing! Thank you, Seth and Playbill!

Personally, I like the end to "If I Were a Bell." So, sue me! (Maybe I'm just used to it.) You certainly improved that CHESS ending, with Ms. Murney's riffing. And that WAR PAINT example is killer! Got to get that recording.

Im #OBSESSED with him!!!!!

Love thisssss 💕💕

Orchestration at the end of If I Were A Bell is awesome, has a vibe I associate with big bands like Eckstine’s

When he plays air violin I about died.

Still got it! Two years later.

Omg I love this video!

I think the ending for "If I Were A Bell" is absolutely perfect because it compliments the story and the action and the characters so well. If you don't know the story, at this point Sarah and Sky are in Havana, and she's trying to seduce him after getting drunk. At the end of the song, she is suppose to fall into his arms. It's this very tender moment between the two characters. If they had gone for a "splash" ending, where they freeze, wait for the applause, and then do the fall, it breaks the momentum. If they were to have her fall on the button, it would seem too abrupt. If they were to have a brassier ending, it ruins the tenderness of the moment. Instead, they chose to mirror the action on stage, and have the orchestra sort of fall away at the end. In my experience, it has never caused the audience not to applaud, and even if they don't, is that really the most important thing?

Jason C. Parker: You’ve got the story wrong: After taking her to Cuba to win a bet, orders milk spiced with rum to loosen her up for romance. He’s trying to seduce her, not the other way around. Do the women you date spice your drink to seduce you when you take them out?

Lol same!

I agree about the war paint ending. Riveting.

Love the Runaways reference. Where *do* people go ... when they ran-a-way?

Please do another video talking about more buttons!

...I high key love 'stingers'

That last bit! LOL

6:24 Not just Broadway, but a *LOT* of Jazz, as well.

I really proud of myself that after the first 2 "sassy-brassy" endings, I just KNEW the third would be Hello, Dolly!

You should teach music theory right here on KZread. You make it fun!

Has anyone ever heard the whistling at the end of Tonight on the OBC of West Side Story?

Ragtime has the best endings cause every song is like a finale!

If I Were a Bell ending seems clear to me

Wait, you mean these buttons aren't about sewing?
