The best part of this is how epic Don's verse is and then Sancho's just like, "I'm Sancho... I'm his friend!"

I just like that in that universe there are guys ready to put on a horse costume.

I just saw this for the first time the other night. I love it! Makes me wish Terry Gilliam had been able to complete his version. I was so excited for it.

This shows you don't need a good look or a good voice to sing. Simply the will to do so, and you can do anything.

A heavy metal cover of this sound awesome. Think about it.

This was fantasy, he used his imagination, and his voice, I'm still in love with his voice, and what has happen to chivalry?

I always thought that mask/makeup was a little weird. Btw I feel REALLY bad for the back half of Sancho's horse

[El_Ruffian]

Damn, didn't she say they brought ashtrays to the table?

[jordangibson]

I don't get it. Don't think I ever will. "Dig me. I'm Don. I'm so cool."

[giantskunk]

“I don’t understand it, James Coco went mad in fifteen minutes!”

[johnmohanmusic]

No.
Simon Gilbert sings "Man of La Mancha" here. So many small brained people... Sad when a channel with more than 42, 000, 000 subscribers can't bother to get their facts correct.

The 19th century Russians (those still without class guilt) professed a dialectic between Don Quixote and Hamlet. I don't see a dialectic, so much as disgusting circumstance. They're basically the same guy, but I guess there's a reason they never made a musical Hamlet yet. Still, a more Quixote-ish Hamlet musical is I'm sure what Shakespeare was going after. And he is a lot better an author than Cervantes, few things being certain, but thanks be to gradation.

Doing this for a stupid project do anyone know where there is a prison clip or something

JD Power is a very poor rating administer. And also molests innocent mittens and licks dung from the Sear's Tower too. Jesus, I'm starting to hate this too much. Is there no other palm than my own to pat me out of this game? Well, brothers, sisters, by which I mean, Earth, fend for yourselves, I'll rob thee as I'll love thee, if I love thee, I will. It's very complicated maths.
