The LOST Fan-Them

All this guy cares about is LOST. We can relate.

The song is hilarious. It may be the only song ever to find rhymes for “Charles Widmore,” “Sayid Jarrah,” Lindelof and Cuse,” and “Brotha.”

Terry O’Quinn (Locke) singing “If I Loved You”

Posted on August 28, 2009 | 1 comment

This has been the first chance I’ve had to post anything since I got back from vacation. And what better way to get back into the swing of things than to put up one of my favorite types of posts — one with a LOST actor singing.

The clip is from The Last to Go, a 1991 made-for-TV movie about a husband (Terry O’Quinn) who abandons his wife. A reviewer in EW gave it a grade of B and wrote:

In theory, a TV-movie soap opera like The Last to Go should be miserable…. But director John Erman (Who Will Love My Children?) understands that it doesn’t matter whether the details of a script are cliched; the execution of them can redeem the banality…. Erman gets a typically intelligent, modest performance from O’Quinn.

The song is “If I Loved You” from the Rodgers and Hammerstein musical Carousel. O’Quinn does a good job, doesn’t he?

If you like the song, here’s a masterful version from the 1956 film, sung by Gordon MacRae and Shirely Jones:

Naveen Andrews dancing in "Bride and Prejudice"

Naveen Andrews dancing in "Bride and Prejudice"

Naveen Andrews didn’t always play killers! In Bride and Prejudice, a 2004 musical Bollywood adaptation of Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice, he played a role based on Mr. Bingley (Darcy’s friend). This clip shows him in an elaborate dance number:

Naveen discussed his preparation for the role in an interview with about.com conducted shortly before the film was released in the U.S.:

Q: What training did you have for the musical numbers?

NA: Oh Christ, well they had the choreographer, Saroj Khan, who does all those Bollywood films and is the best in her field. And I had to train nine hours a day for about 40 weeks trying to get this s**t done. It’s like traditional Indian dance coupled with M.C. Hammer from the early ‘90s, which has to be seen to be believed.

Q: Would you display your dance skills in a club?

NA: Absolutely not.

Too bad!

Here’s something very funny. Someone took the Bride and Prejudice dance number and used it to make a mash-up with the scene in LOST where Sayid tortured Sawyer:

Not the dancing! Oh no! I’ll tell you anything, just don’t make me watch any more dance! Hah.

The mash-up was made by RemieVander; Bride and Prejudice (c) Pathé Pictures International

LOST in a Weird Al Yankovic tune

Posted on August 7, 2009 | 2 comments

A short excerpt of this first video was featured in the fan-made video montage shown in Comic-Con. Here’s the whole thing. It’s a brilliant, funny, manic recap of Season 2, set to Weird Al Yankovic’s “Alternative Polka.” The video was made by Robert Montjoy, aka CapnBob.

The previous year, CapnBob had made a video recapping Season 1 to the tune of Weird Al’s version of “Bohemian Rhapsody.” While this one didn’t make Comic-Con, it is my all-time absolute favorite fan-made video ever. Did I mention how much I love this video? Okay, then. Carry on, carry on:

CapnBob can be found in Bobville and on YouTube.

This next video isn’t LOST-related, but just because I can’t get the song out of my head now, here is Queen with the late great amazing Freddy Mercury singing “Bohemian Rhaposdy” at the Live Aid concert in 1985:
