$$ Sold ! $$ Ahhh, this one won Oscars for best original score and best original song. The Wizard of Oz!
Did you know Buddy Ebsen (Jed Clampett) of the Beverly Hillbillies was originally cast as the Tin Man in Wizard of Oz? He ended up being allergic to the aluminum make up. Even his replacement, Jack Haley ended up with a severe eye infection from the aluminum make up.
A rare recording of Buddy Ebsen singing, “If I Only Had a Heart” from the set of Wizard of Oz, 1939:
In that song, “If I Only Had Heart”, the female voice that says, “Wherefore art thou, Romeo?” is Disney Legend, Adriana Caselotti, voice actress of Disney’s 1937 film, Snow White.
The success and popularity of The Wizard of Oz has made that film a popular piece to reinterpret. Some favorites are Wicked , The Wiz , Oz the Great and Powerful and many more.
A fun and unique reinterpretation is The Wizard of Ahhhs by todrickhall featuring Pentatonix.
