Seth Rudetsky deconstructs Raul Esparza, Lee Wilkof and Barbra Streisand

"Raul Esparza, full like 'ah! I smoke 8 packs a day; drinky-drinky' annnnnd opera singer" made me lose it!

YOU DON'T KNOW ANY OTHER OPERA SINGERS?! WTF?! interesting video though.

I could listen to Raul's voice all day, every day!! And having Seth deconstruct is so much fun!!

its the best hair recording ive ever heard!

why doesn't Speed the Plow have a B-flat in it? I concur, sir. Let's just throw tenor high notes into any and everything.

Raúl Esparza can sing ANYthing. I love his different sounds, they're just wonderful.

@aaureliaw -- that's exactly the comparison i made when i first heard raúl, i was like "oh my gosh he's gerard butler except the broadway version." i truly believe they're twins :P

At first, I couldn't believe that was Raul Esparza but then further in, I could hear his trademark sound. Lee Wilkof is underrated and I am so glad you brought him up!! :-)

Listen Raul Esparza is a vocal phenomenon! It's absurd, can can sing like anyway anywhere....what in the world!? He's like the Gerard Butler of broadway (only he can actually sing) I'm obsessed with his voice...and Babs? Do we need to discuss her? Amazeballs.

LEE WILKOF!!!!!!

Raul Esparza rocks!!

AMAHHHHHZING

I love Seth soooo much, but Im afraid to see him on caffeine,lol

lee wilkof in that first song reminds me very much of nathan lane.

I can't handle how hilarious you are, Seth! Brava!

Because he's amazing like that...Duh.

you have right about raul he likes smoking .

Love Rocky Horror!!!!

lol this video is definently one of the funniest deconstructions

Why do you talk so fast...

Seth Rudetsky = WIN

hahaha why DOESN"T speed the plow have a Bb in it!?hahah love you, Seth

you should definitely do a whole deconstruction of raul! he is soo amazing i can't even comprehend how phenomenal his vocals are!

Seth-I don't know if you read these- but you should totally do one just on Raul because his voice is just fab and unique and you could do so much with it, I wonder if they can but a B flat in Twelfth Night. I honestly don't think William Shakespseare would mind. PS I watch your videos everyday and they are absolutely brilliant. Love your passion for all the great singers in this world.

Wow, I couldn't even believe that was Raul Esparza in the beginning. He's so incredible.
