My boyfriend likes to make me CDs of obscure broadway songs with clever titles... such as "Unmemorable Duets", "From shows that Didn't", etc...
I want to repay the favor and make him "The STDs Album"... Same Title, Different Show...
By this I mean things like "Without You" From Rent and My Fair Lady, "Santa Fe" from Rent and Newsies, "Let it Go" from The Full Monty and Frozen (Which I know technically isn't a show, but still)
So can you all help me out and think of some good examples?
"The Telephone Song" from Bye Bye Birdie and Miss Saigon
"The Confrontation" from Miss Saigon and Les Misérables
"Home" from The Wiz and Beauty and the Beast
"Maria" from West Side Story and The Sound of Music
"It Takes Two" from Into the Woods and Hairspray
"Soliloquy" from Carousel and Les Misérables
Salve, Regina, Mater misericordiae
Vita, dulcedo, et spes nostra
Salve, Salve Regina
Ad te clamamus exsules filii Eva
Ad te suspiramus, gementes et flentes
O clemens O pia
There is also "Alive" from Jekyll & Hyde and Death Takes a Holiday, "All For You" from Seussical and Saturday Night, "Beautiful" from Sunday in the Park with George and Marie Christine, "Better" from Little Women and Bring it On, "Class" from Chicago and Saturday Night, "Day By Day" from Godspell and Marguerite, "Ever After" from Into the Woods and Bare, "Every Day a Little Death" from A Little Night Music and The Count of Monte Cristo, "Gold" from Once and Road Show.
This is as far as I got on my ipod before my finger got tired.
"You and I" - Bare & Chess "What Would You Do?" - If Then & Cabaret "I'm Alive" - Next to Normal & Xanadu "Murder" - See What I Wanna See & Reefer Madness
There's also a "Better" from A Class Act, in addition to the ones previously mentioned. There are also "Home"s from Maury Yeston's Phantom and probably about ten others.
The motherload in this category belongs to Supper Time.
Suppertime - You're A Good Man Charlie Brown
Suppertime - Little Shop Of Horrors
Suppertime - As Thousands Cheer
If anyone ever tells you that you put too much Parmesan cheese on your pasta, stop talking to them. You don't need that kind of negativity in your life.
