I love my dude Danny but I'm not gunna lie his photo in the thumbnail had me worried

What a flattering thumbnail

I can’t really imagine Jack being played by anyone else. It’s been so etched into my memory and the fabric of reality spacetime

This guy danny elfman for me it's one of the most talented men of out time, his behind so many movies scores and themes, his a genius. Just hearing the theme of the simpsons, Edward scissors hands, sleepy hollow, batman and batman returns and others are great but all the music score or soundtrack of those movies are amazing I have them all.

Danny Elfman is my favorite composer of all time

You can tell how passionate he is about him music. It makes him light up and smile! ❤ He's a true musician/composer!

Everytime he speaks all i hear is jack its crazy! This is great!

So rare back then to be just given an unrestricted green light from the studios like they did! Amazing job!

Love Danny elfman, can't help thinking he looks like one of my nursing mentors from my course though...

When did Danny Elfman turn into everyone's deep voiced grandma?

Oingo Boingo - who knew then he would end up being such a big deal in movies.

I wasnt born to see him in his glory days as I am only young but I love this man oh so much and he inspires me everyday, even during these days he still manages to inspire those who are young, never leave us Danny

I had to start this over so that I could pay better attention. At first I was distracted by Danny’s shirt as it looks inside out to me. Very nice interview. Enjoyed hearing all of the behind the scenes happenings of Danny’s work.

I can't help but love his speaking voice too. I wish Danny was my uncle, we would have such great jam sessions!

feels strange seeing him without the glasses. and I had no idea he had a sleeve of tats. Any who, super talented man!

This doesn't explain why they got Chris Sarandon to do the speaking voice. That's what I really want to know, is why Danny didn't just do the speaking lines, if he was already doing the songs.

The movie was a masterpiece.

I love this omg, Danny was so connected to the character he couldn't help but want to voice jack so badly

If I close my eyes I hear jack skellington. Makes me wonder why he didn't just voice him

When Danny Elfman dies he's just going to turn into Jack Skellington. I can just see it.

Elfman is the man of many talents. Awesome interviews .

Since Jack sings more than he speaks, I wonder how they decided Chris Sarandon would do the 10% of lines they needed lol

LIFESAVERS, haha! Maaaaaaaaaaaaan, I wish the whole interview was available on vid like this.... But we will take what we can get! MANY THANKS!!!

For as many times I’ve seen this movie I didn’t know Danny was the voice

3 DAYS PER SONG? Say what you want about later collabs, Elfman is a damn genius to write the demos for the soundtrack in only a month.

one of the most genius people of our time,.. or anytime for that matter

I love Danny Elfman so much 💜

He was the perfect man for the job, the songs in Nightmare Before Christmas were brilliant

Few people are as talented as Danny

This move will never ever get old. I work with a family who youngster is 2 years old. She watches this everyday all day and tries to sing Sally’s song, it’s so cute.. 😁

Genius project. Making the macabre fun and fresh! And a Disney movie on top of it!?

I had no clue DE was Jack until I went to a live film music concert of some of his scores at the Albert Hall. Full orchestra, choir, they even had a Theramin player for Mars Attacks! They did 3 or 4 songs from Nightmare and I just thought the guy that played him was really good and sounded just like him. He was bloody brilliant!! Didn't realise until I Googled it afterwards! 🤦🏾‍♀️

Danny's the best! Great interview.

I think the days of Disney giving people freedom the write a movie how it organically comes about/flows naturally by the creative process are over.

Yip, oingo boingo was a great band from the 80's w Danny as the writer and leader.

Fan of his for so long....what a genius

I close my eyes and all I hear is Jack.

"Danny, don't worry. You're doing it."

I Can Picture Jack Talking While He Talks

dannys style, described by danny: "i dunno."

Great dude

I saw you on Halloween when you were still the Mystic Knights of the Oingo Boingo I think it was at the Whiskey A Go Go and Dr Demento was hosting.

saw his latest music video! glad u didnt decide to just give up on your musical career man!

Genius 🎼🎶

To the commenters wondering why Danny didn’t do the speaking voice as well, according to the recent documentary “The Holiday Movies That Made Us”, he WAS gonna be the main voice, but the animators felt that his actual acting was too wooden so they got Chris Sarandon. It makes me wonder how bad his performance actually was if they couldn’t just get him to re-record his lines until he got it right. Maybe if Danny had a voice director who could’ve helped him out it would’ve been fine, but here we are, and I’m just fine with that. I appreciate both sides for being able to recognize that there was a problem that needed fixing, it was very good of them to do so cause they wanted to make the best movie possible.

i think his greatest sondtrack was to the forbidden zone with herve vellachez sooo weird but amazing music

The Man!

I wonder if Chris Sarandon had any interest in singing for Jack.

Happy...... Happy.......

BEST MUSIC GOD EVER

I Hope He Does The Cat in the Hat for Warner Animation Group. He Did The Grinch, Mr. Peabody and Sherman, Epic, Meet the Robinsons, and Goosebumps.

Wooow, Danny looks like an angry lesbian from Twitter in the thumbnail 😂

Woah, I always thought it was Martin Short by the voice.

For some reason I have always thought Danny Elfman was British because his name sounds so British.

Danny 'id totally poison someone to be Jack skellington' Elfman

When grandma is let out of jail and starts a podcast.

We've all heard of "a role to die for" but is he saying it was "a role to kill for?"

I know him

rw:Um actually Chris Sarandon from THE PRINCESS BRIDE played the voice of JACK SKELLINGTON (speaking voice specifically) Danny Elfman played Jacks singing voice,but he did do the voice of Jack Skellington in the PS2 game THE NIGHTMARE BEFORE CHRISTMAS OOGIES REVENGE.

WHAT?! WHERE ARE THE GLASSES?!

I thought Elfman only sang for Skellington? Chris Saradon voiced him. Elfman sang.

I thought the thumb nail was a grandma.

People complaining about this guy looks remember at the moment of the interview the dude is already has 67 years old. It's kinda weird seeing people you admired getting old a part of you want to see them always young and creative but is part of life and I bet neither of us is going to look better at that age at least is obvious he is still passionate about his art and that is great They should have chosen a better thumbnail tough

Never realized he looks so much like jack(teeth and dark empty eyes)

Do the rahwar

I thought it was joe rogen talking at the beginning

Justice League? I'm glad Hans Zimmer will be finishing what he started.

This is my daughter’s absolute favorite movie! Odd that they didn’t want it to sound like a broadway musical because that’s what it sounds like. Weird.....science.

It’s Atticus hi

No composer produces music that sounds like Elfman's.

Whut is up with Beetlejuice 2

You >Devo nb Adam Ant wear my chilid hood

Is that a all-seeing-eye Illuminati tattoo on his chest? #painiscoming #ilikelittlegirls

WHAT’S THIS?!!👨‍👩‍👧‍👦👩‍👩‍👦‍👦👨‍👨‍👧‍👧👨‍👨‍👦‍👦👨‍👨‍👦‍👦

what is yer tat on chest

Holy shit. I thought that was an old woman....Danny is looking old...

"No template"?! I love, love, love you, Danny, but the only difference between Nightmare and any other movie that Disney has shit out is that Nightmare has a bit more music (AND it's MILES better than anything Disney has produced since)!

It's weird to see rich people with bad teeth. Not even for looks, but for health.

Danny needs to get rid of his hair or change it, cause its doing him zero favors

I'm the one dislike
