Beauty & the Bieber (Unexpected Musical) — PattyCake Productions music video
youtube
Continuing their signature style of combining childhood classics with modern music, the PattyCake guys decided to tackle a tale as old as time for their next project. In addition to Justin Bieber's melodies and the musical motifs from the 1991 animated film, they also included elements from the forthcoming 2017 live action remake.
Details:
title: Unexpected Musicals — Beauty and the Bieber
performers: Jamie Fritz (Belle); Earl Elkins, Jr. (Beast); E. Michael Evans (Gaston); Joey D'Angelo-LaJoie (LaFou); Alexander Browne (Lumiere); Brad Pettitt (Prince Adam); Leah Lowman (village girls); Anita Wakim (Enchantress)
original songs / performers: [0:15] "I'll Show You" by Justin Bieber; [0:53] "Baby" by Justin Bieber, feat. Ludacris; [1:09] "Love Yourself" by Justin Bieber; [1:21] "Never Say Never" by Justin Bieber, feat. Jaden; [2:12] "Boyfriend" by Justin Bieber; [2:36] "Company" by Justin Bieber; [3:30] "Beauty and a Beat" by Justin Bieber, feat. Nicki Minaj; [4:10] "Sorry" by Justin Bieber; [4:22] "Let Me Love You" by DJ Snake, feat. Justin Bieber; [4:44] "Cold Water" by Major Lazer, feat. Justin Bieber & MØ
written by: "I'll Show You" by Justin Bieber, Michael "BloodPop" Tucker, Sonny "Skrillex" Moore, Theron "Neff-U" Feemster, & Joshua Gudwin; "Baby" by Justin Bieber, Christopher "Tricky" Stewart, Terius "The-Dream" Nash, Christopher "Ludacris" Bridges, & Christina Milian; "Love Yourself" by Justin Bieber, Benjamin "Benny Blanco" Levin, & Ed Sheeran; "Never Say Never" by Adam "Messy" Messinger, Nasri Atweh, Thaddis "Kuk" Harrell, Jaden Smith, Omarr Rambert, & Justin Bieber; "Boyfriend" by Mike Posner, Mason Levy, Matthew "Blackbear" Musto, & Justin Bieber; "Company" by Justin Bieber, Andreas Schuller, James Wong, Leroy Clampitt, Jason "Poo Bear" Boyd, James "JHart" Abrahart, & Thomas Troelsen; "Beauty and a Beat" by Max Martin, Anton "Zedd" Zaslavski, Savan Kotecha, & Nicki Minaj; "Sorry" by Justin Bieber, Michael "BloodPop" Tucker, Sonny "Skrillex" Moore, Justin Tranter, & Julia Michaels; "Let Me Love You" by William "DJ Snake" Grigahcine, Justin Bieber, Andrew "Watt" Wotman, Ali Tamposi, Brian Lee, & Louis Bell; "Cold Water" by Thomas "Diplo" Pentz, Justin Bieber, Karen Marie "MØ" Ørsted, Benjamin "Benny Blanco" Levin, "King Henry" Allen, Philip "Jr Blender" Meckseper, Ed Sheeran, & Jamie Scott
arranged by: Layne Stein & Tony Wakim
release date: 17 March 2017
My favorite bits:
combining the rhythmic strings and the villagers' greetings from "Belle" with the melody for "I'll Show You"
Belle explicitly giving Gaston the brush-off
the tinkling minor motif from the animated movie as Belle enters the castle
Earl's fantastic growl at the end of "Never Say Never"
LaFou's gleeful fawning over Gaston and dancing on the tables
the sneaky ♫ "May-be" ♫ from "Company" overlapping with the tavern scene and leading into the "Be Our Guest" instrumentation
the Beast's lovely vulnerability during the dinner and dancing
using the crunchy horn motif from "Battle on the Tower" to create menace in this version of "Let Me Love You"
Earl's voice being layered over the final lyrics after the transformation

Trivia:
○ The obvious starting point for this project was Jusin Beiber's "Beauty and a Beat", which Tony and Layne had performed as part of VoicePlay's "Wow! Vol. 1" medley during the 2015 Sing-Off tour, but one song does not a full plot make. The guys delved into his extended catalogue to find songs that fit certain story beats and would blend well with the animated movie's score.
○ This was an incredibly ambtious undertaking. According to the PattyCake guys, preparations took five months, and filming spanned "six long days" (and nights, clearly).
○ All that hard work paid off, though, since they were able to time their YouTube release for the same day that the Emma Watson movie hit theaters.
○ VoicePlay recorded a Beauty and the Beast medley for "Once Upon an Ever After" (2012), their first album with Tony as a member of the group. Excerpts from that arrangement later appeared in their music videos "Be Our Guest", "Aca Top 10 – Disney Sidekicks", and "Aca Top 10 – Disney Villains". They also included "Belle" in their "Aca Top 10 – Broadway" countdown.
○ "Love Yourself" was the first song in VoicePlay's PartWork series, which they started as preparation for Tony leaving the group.
○ Layne occasionally used "Baby" as his interruption at the end of VoicePlay's "Road Trip" medley / comedy sketch.
○ On top of their usual studio work, this production required multiple location shoots:
The outdoor village scenes were filmed at the Casa Feliz museum.
Beast's castle interior was the Ballroom at Church Street, which closed in 2019, and was demolished 2023.
The tavern was an actual bar, the Tap Room at Dubsdread.
○ Between the main cast and dozens of background folks, they needed so many costumes that Tony enlisted his sister Anita to help wrangle them all.
○ There are several of Tony's fellow "Beetlejuice Revue" alumni among the main cast:
Michael (Gaston) played Dracula and Frankenstein's monster.
Joey (LaFou) played Wolfman and Dracula.
Brad (Prince Adam) was a dancer in the final "Mashup" iteration of the show.
○ There are also many friends and family among background cast and crew, including several cast members from previous Unexpected Musicals. Olivia Adkins and Leah Lowman are among the village crowd as Snow White and Cinderella. Rachel Copeland and Matthew Buckner are in the tavern crowd, but not as their previous characters. Many of the other villagers were clubgoers in "Hocus Heathens".
○ This video got a nice write-up on Huffington Post.

Lyrics:
I still hear you
I know what I should say
"I don't think of you, " but I do
Oh, I do, I do
Black car on the highway
Could've sworn I saw your face
Was it you? Was it you?
Call me, "Baby"
I know you go home to another one
Say you hate me
It's okay, boy, you're not the only one
Another year, we're still here
Call me, "Baby"
I know you go home to another one
I still hear you
Do you talk about me?
Like I still belong to you
Do you? Do you?
Now you hold her gently
Don't you wish you saw us through?
'Cause I do, I do
Call me, "Baby"
I know you go home to another one
Say you hate me
It's okay, boy, you're not the only one
Another year, we're still here
Call me, "Baby"
I know you go home to another one
Songwriter:
I know you go home to another one
Another year, we're still here
Call me, "Baby"
I know you go home to another one

Ashe’s “In Disguise” Is the Very Definition of Timeless Songwriting
Tumblr media
There is a timelessness to Ashe; it is what I can only imagine people felt when they heard Carole King or Joni Mitchell for the first time. The Los Angeles ray of sunshine makes music that transcends time or space, delivering a timeworn vibe capable of transporting you to places you have never actually stepped foot in. Nowhere is this gift more apparent than in her latest single “In Disguise.”
“In Disguise” marks the first single since Ashe released her lauded Moral of the Story: Chapter 1 earlier this year, and it is everything one could hope for in a song and more. From the slight country-folk twang to Ashe’s bittersweetly reminiscing the opening lines “I was living free/ Like I wanted to/ But they laughed at me/ So I came to you asking for a good time/ And a ticket out of mind,” every inch of “In Disguise” is an utter joy and sonic triumph. Ashe spoke on how her latest single came to see the light of day in a candid Instagram post, 
“I present to, from my heart to yours, ‘In Disguise!!!!’ I’m going to be real with you! I was very back and forth about releasing this song. When Leroy James Clampitt and I originally wrote it I thought, wow fuck, yes, this is what I want to say! This is a classic, this is something I’ll be proud of 40 years from now! And then time moved on and people kept writing/releasing music that couldn’t be more different from this record, and I started doubting myself hardcore. Luckily, I had people like FINNEAS tell me it was special and add love and life to the record. I think life’s always teaching us to trust ourselves… so here’s me trying to be a good example.”
“In Disguise” is the rare sort of song that even after hearing it only once, it finds a place in your heart. I, for one, cannot wait for the day when years, even decades, from now when I hear Ashe utter the lines “I rather be hated for what I am/ Than waste it all giving a damn” through a record player in a dimly lit bar.
Watch the video for “In Disguise” below and be sure to catch Ashe on her Ones To Watch–presented tour this fall:
