Kristen Chenowith ( Sally Brown, Galinda/ You're a Good Man Charlie Brown, Wicked)

I forget anyone? (A.O. Avalon, help me out darling . . . )

Fur Elise - Beethoven

this is just an amazin tune - u cant

Bliss - Muse

Mad World - Tears for Fears

this is just a real nice tune...

I don't know about singing -

But I absolutely adore this song by Embrace - Ashes.

And the Smiths - There is a Light That Never Goes Out

LISTEN TO THEM.

Michael Crawford. The original Phantom of the Opera. *dies*

I'm so obsessed with him.. His voice sends chills down my spine everytime I hear it.. I'm listening to him right now.. of course, I have a chipmunk filter on, so it sounds hilarious..

WHY didn't he play the Phantom in the movie?? Grar..

The film was cast by a) Andrew Lloyed Webber and b) Joel Shumacher. Mr. Webber's only requirement was all the actors (save Carlotta) were able to sing their own parts. Mr. Shumacher's only requirements were YOUNG and SEXY. That's why our dear Michael Crawford wasn't able to play the Phantom AND why Sarah Brightman was not Christine (which was WRONG! I hated that Christine. Emmy something. ICK.)

*sigh*

I hear (and read) in colour (odd, but true), so I get a bit of special pleasure from it that not many listeners can. OOOOH voices....

Kimi, you're synysthetic? That's fantastic.

You should seriously tell me more about that sometime.

Yup yup! We were studying F. Scott my sophmore year and my teacher started to explain how he was synysthetic, and what that meant. I couldn't help thinking it sounded exactly like how I saw the world . . .

I just get cooler and cooler every day, huh?

i cant listen to any broadway stuff without listen to the orcestra without listening for overplaying.dont ask.marching band*sigh why'd i ever join* they should've cast sarah brightman and michael crawford.

Lol, it's ok! Whenever I see people marching in a movie, I'm ALWAYS looking to see if they're on the right step, if they're all in step, if they're balanced, etc. Gah.

Yay! Go synesthetes!

While this phantom IS nice to look at , THE PHANTOM IS NOT SUPPOSED TO BE YOUNG AND SEXY! Grar. His voice is supposed to be the reason Christine falls under his spell.. and his voice could NEVER compare with the brilliant MC's. Of course, nothing ever could.. *growls at ALW*

ah, the things band does to you, eh? (whipsers, go clarinets! *gets several weird looks*)
i'm going to see the movie this weekend. finally.

With me, don't forget!

Flutes rock. But bassoons beat them all.

I don't know about me curling my toes, but I think I could make girls' toes curl

I just keep showing up at the right time to laugh, don't I? *cracks up laughing*

go clarinets they are the best intrument ever in the world
