Newsies: The Broadway Musical - Seize the Day

Audio from the filmed performance of Newsies that was released theatrically and digitally as "Newsies: The Broadway Musical"

*I DO NOT OWN THIS MUSIC. ALL OWNERSHIP GOES TO DISNEY*

[ohifonlyx]

Normally not a big fan of audience clapping in recordings and such... but knowing that this the dance break and everyone is legit freaking and losing it... does put a smile on my face.

[rorikaye]

"And a prayer becomes a vow" honestly that chord gives me life

[FFuzzbutt]

I'm surprised no one's mentioned how this is the song where Ben Cook *kicks* himself in the face and keeps dancing without missing a beat.

[dragonflyace]

1:22 my son Crutchie softly saying "we're doing this?" is the cutest thing ever.

[lakischadaleus]

After watching Newsies, every newspaper she sees, she has the sudden feeling to rip it and dance

[emmaclark]

i love the part that Davey says: your still our brothers and we will fight for you :]

[bruh-hsvx]

*"Once we've begun, if we stand as one, someday becomes somehow, and a prayer becomes a vow."*

-my favorite line in this song

[sadielandesman]

I wish I had the voice of Ben Fankhauser, the character of Jeremy Jordan, the adorableness of Andrew Keenan-Bolger and the dance skills of Ben Cook

[charliemac]

These transitions from part of the song to part of the song skipping the dialogue is seamless

[afuregu]

This is actually really funny to me since a lot of Disney workers went on strike because they got unfair pay...

[epicdrumz]

Why is my favorite part the "huh, huh, huh" that the guys do while dancing haha

[entertainmentstarz]

By listening to all the songs from this and hearing the audience reaction makes me want to watch the live version of Newsies again. Or better yet see Newsies on Broadway.

[Actually_its_Ashely]

1:09 “then say to the others who did not follow through, you’re still our brothers, and we will fight for you” is one of my favorite lines in all of musical theater

[rease]

definitely prefer this live version :)

[suahabose]

ngl i like the livesies soundtrack better than OBC (i know they’re the same songs i just mean in terms of cast)

[casper]

Every time I hear/watch this I have this tension because I know what's about to happen and IT"S KILLING ME

[prisonerofdreamsss]

Someone: Okay so you need to set a goal, whats a song that you can works towards singing?
Me, a true and utter beginner who can't sing for the life of me: Newsies
Someone: Okay setting the bar a bit high there lets pick something else

[kumanekovods]

2:54 this sforzando will kill me every time i hear it. doing sforzandos in a choir with a director is hard enough but they're doing it IN UNISON, ON TEMPO, SAME TONE, AND ALL WITHOUT DIRECTION

[rebekahr]

Now is the time to seize the day
Stare down the odds and seize the day
Minute by minute that's how you win it
We will find a way
But let us seize the day
Courage cannot erase our fear
Courage is when we face our fear
Tell those with power safe in their tower
We will not obey!

Behold the brave battalion that stands side by side
Too few in number and too proud to hide
Then say to the others who did not follow through
You're still our brothers, and we will fight for you

Now is the time to seize the day
Stare down the odds and seize the day

Once we've begun
If we stand as one
Someday becomes somehow
And a prayer becomes a vow

And this strike starts right damn now!

Now is the time to seize the day
(Now is the time to seize the day)

Answer the call and don't delay
(Answer the call and don't delay)

Wrongs will be righted
If we're united
Let us seize the day

Now let 'em hear it loud and clear
(Now let 'em hear it loud and clear)

Like it or not we're drawing near
(Like it or not we're drawing near)

Proud and defiant
We'll slay the giant
Judgement day is here
Houston to Harlem, look what's begun
One for all and all for one!
Strike! Strike! Strike! Strike! Strike! Strike!
Oh! Strike!

Now is the time to seize the day
They're gonna see there's hell to pay
Nothing can break us
No one can make us quit before we're done
One for all and all for
One for all and all for
One for all and all for one!

To anyone who has watched this, why aren't we talking about the goofy grin Davey gives Racer? Like oh my god. Bless these babies.
