I tend to put Eyes on the Prize II higher solely because of the dedication to a dramatic sad gay flashback. Seriously, Joey has like 25 seconds to change and get up on the catwalk just so Curt can be sad for 3 seconds.

I’ve been thinking the same thing!

Prisoner of the Past is literally the most bone chilling, gut curtling song I’ve ever listened to.. Her voice is so amazing..

This video reminded me how fully in love with Curt Mega I am

i was really drunk at my schoolies and i learned my lesson of not showing my friends my starkid obsession & absolutely BLASTED one more shot in phillip island and they were a whole new level of confused. i definitely should have played not so bad, 18 year old boys would lap that shit up

i like to think that during ‘the coldest goodbye’ joey rolls off to side stage

I'm glad someone appreciates We Love The Prince, haha

i just realized joey leaves halfway thru keep your eyes on the prize II so he can get on the catwalk and change into owen within like 30 seconds i love a good quick change

My top 3 would have been: 3:"Coldest Goodbye" (inc Joey's reprise) 2:"Prisoner of my past" 1:"Torture tango" I love all the songs so i cant rlly rank them, i just know the most lyrics to these XD

My favorite song is the reprise Owen sings during the climax. It's so fucking emotional and I just love everything about that scene. But, it's not really considered a song, so that's why The Coldest Goodbye might be my favorite song, just because it's pretty close to what Owen sang in that scene.

YASSSSSSSS SPY AGAIIIN. I thought nobody else liked it!

All of my moods are Joe Walkers different roles in this musical. I’m proud.

“youre cool with me?” “till the end” i love them so much

joe walker’s singing is so GLORIOUS when he’s singing in his proper register, oh my god

I feel like this is the most basic ass opinion but spies are forever is my favourite it is just SO iconic and singlehandedly makes me gay

How dare. Mama Mega deserves top spot.

Did anyone else notice during the whole musical Al is wearing the brown (rocket) shoes?

i didn't get what you meant by lyrical blue balls but then you cut off the goodbyes and then I screamed and I've never been so hurt in my ENTIRE life how dare you do this to me I am crying this is unfair and should be illegal it's probably illegal w h y my heart has been ripped out and skinned to pieces and been through a stampede worse than mufasa's i-

YES finally someone gives We Love The Prince the ranking it deserves. That song is gold.

my top 3 match yours in that exact order! amazing

I would love to see a ranking video of every single character in spies are forever cause there's just so many 😂 And they're all amazing

Why are the Eyes on the Prizes always so low on these lists? They're huge bops!

Omg Damien Wayne! You’re totally(awesome) right!

I got an ad at the end of Barb's lament, and the timing was *almost* perfect

Oh gosh, I never ever noticed Curt's head movements during the best part (1,2,3,4 part harmony) of One More Shot, I was too focused on Tatiana. That's hilarious!

Why does everyone hate Curt's beard? I think it's hot. Then again the fashion standards were different in the 60's edit: just wanna say I'm a lesbian and I think that it looks nice probably because my dad had the same beard but reddish-brown

Joe Walker as a villain and especially in Torture Tango because it's really good makes me infinitely times gayer

Somebody’s gotta do it is like. My fav. Don’t let anyone hurt Sergio ❤️

I really love somebody’s gotta do it

Was legit so upset that you didn't have One Step Ahead higher and then you started listing some bangers of songs and I was like - can't even be mad, these are some perfect songs

Honestly my top three would’ve been 1: Not So Bad 2: Torture Tango 3: Somebody’s Gotta Do It Before you get mad, sure Not So Bad is about how Nazi’s aren’t bad but it’s a good song and honestly a bop.

So basically MK’s character(forgive me for forgetting her name) is Natasha Romanoff. Like, she radiates serious Black Widow energy, they have similar backstories, and are coincidentally both redheads.

I just need to accept that Doing This is my favorite song in the entire show and be done with it.

Party tip: Play a drinking game. Every 30th time they say spy in this show, take a shot. Everyone at the party will be dead by act two

I don’t think I’ve ever not seen Torture Tango below spot 3 before

Nobody: No one: Not a single soul: You: *i c o n i c*

@@bellac6311 I guess that makes sense, but right before he fell there was that rumbling noise where everyone stumbled and that's when Curt was like "oops I set it to 3 minutes not 4" and Owen was like "oh Curt you're going to be the death of me" and fell.

Owen explains that if he and Curt relock the safety barriers then they can limit the blast then most likely proceeds to do so while Curt sets the timer on the bomb so that's probably how he survived. The wizard theory's great though

Just discovered this video 3 years later and it inspired me to think about my own ranking: 1 Torture Tango (always and forever, it is simply perfect) 2 One Step Ahead ("this is what you made me do! This is it, we're done, we're through!" + including the Coldest Goodbye Reprise by Joey!) 3 Spies Are Forever (iconic title number) 4 Somebody's Gotta Do It (Again: love the Tango, Sergio's character plus the ICONIC Walker-Richter duett combo we know and love from MAMD) 5 Doing This (this whole scene is the best parody of stupid Bond-movie clichés, it makes you cringe and laugh so much at the same time) 6 The Coldest Goodbye (the simple instrumentation and MK's voice make for such a haunting song) 7 Not So Bad (the worst catchy song ever, plus I love the harmonies on "But sir, now it's in your hands: the nazis have a second chance") 8 One More Shot (hyping us all up for the finale) 9 Prisoner Of My Past (kinda like Coldest Goodbye, the haunting piano+MK combo is amazing) 10 Spy Again (the lyrics and the different emotions that Curt goes through are so well written) 11 & 12 Eyes On The Prize I & II (Both versions are great though the "oooh" part where Owen appears is heartbreaking) 13 Pay Attention (the lyrics are just once again perfect for the song) 14 Spy Dance (what a bop to get us all on our feet and end the show with good vibes) 15 Spy Again (Reprise) (Curt's little emotional speech at the end and what the piano plays during it are so great together) 16 We Love The Prince (The chorus is really fun but somehow that song has never clicked with me like the others) 17 Not So Bad (Reprise) (still a good song, but cannot compete with the full lenght version) 18 Barb's Lament (I cannpt help but compare this to Mrs. Mega's little lament at the end of Doing This which I like much more) Hmm, maybe I'm a little biase because "We Love The Prince" is the only song that I haven't completely translated yet for my German version of the show that I started to write last year. It's so hard to translate!

13:24 Sword fighting my ex in a Denny’s parking lot

I personally really like coldest goodbye, to the point where it's in my top 3. (with Love the prince, and either Doing this or Torture tango.

Somebody's gotta do it is criminally low

YES Spy again and we love the prince are the absolute best and theyre too often overlooked

I stan “We love the Prince” at number 2 its finally getting recognition i want it to

Unpopular opinions: -Prisoner of My Past should have been WAY higher, it's my favorite song of the show, despite being so short. -Also, I definitely think that Eyes On The Prize II is better than the first one. -Barb's Lament and the reprise are really annoying, and I don't like them at all. -So is Pay Attention (sorry, Tessa, love you tho) These are just my opinions...
