Sarah Michelle Gellar said of making Once More, With Feeling: “I’m not a singer, and I hated every moment of it. It took something like 19 hours of singing and 17 hours of dancing in between shooting four other episodes.” Sarah originally wanted a voice double, but then realised she didn’t want someone else doing her what would be her big emotional turning point for the season. Sarah said of this, ‘’I basically started to cry and said, ‘You mean someone else is going to do my big emotional turning point for the season?”’ |

I was just about to comment that,
I wan’t to be a actress, but do I have to be like that then?
I’m kinda tough, well, I don’t cry for things like that anyway..

I guess I can understand why she cried. She had been doing Buffy for 6 years and finally at this “big emotional turning point” someone else was going to steal her thunder? It just wasn’t singing to her, it was her job that someone else was doing for her which is understandable as to why she would get upset.

I’m glad that she and the rest of the actors did all of their own singing and dancing. It shows the commitment they had.

It didn’t hurt that the cast had wonderful voices, either! I thought Sarah did fine, but I LOVED hearing Emma, Tony, James, and Amber. The ‘big group sing’ was great, too!

AGREED!! I could sit and listen to Where Do We Go From Here and Walk Through The Fire over and over again because I love how everyone’s voices sound together but I also like picking them out seperately. Like Jet, I’m glad everyone did everything themselves, it makes it more personal.

I just saw this episode again earlier today (for about the millionth or so time), and I love it so much. All of the songs are just so well-written and the cast does such a good job of singing. It is impressive that they can pull if off so well. Seeing it serves to remind me once again what a genious Joss Whedon is.
