I did the buy-both-and-get-discount thing, and the CD's arrived yesterday. Anyone else? Thoughts? Feelings? Extra Love? I know there are passionate fans of both shows out there. Please discuss.....
"Do you know ChrisLovesShows?" "Yes. Why, yes he does!"
WAIT... would I be that ONE "passionate fan" of Albertine that you are referring to? ROTFL!
Anyhow... got it today, as well. I'm VERY impressed with the CD... everyone was in great voice. It was recorded well.
HI, unpleasantly revisited some please-claw-my-eyes-out-of-my-head-with-a-knife lyrics from the show that brought back many a nightmare -- mainly that of Emily as a big thigh (RIRI!!!!!!) and her shoving her breasts in my face while Balbec-by-the-Sea is playing over and over again in the background. This was a recurring nightmare after my time spent at this show... that I THOUGHT I rid myself of, but come to find out, the CD brought it ALL back. I'm scarred. I'm scarred, dammit!
BUT, the music is beautiful! YAY! Go buy the CD!

Um, Emily felt the desire to draw horns and a moustache on her face. She is a strange woman. It makes me giggle so I thought I'd share it with the rest of the... Broadway.... world.
