I just got the DRS record and is it unhealthy that i am in love with this song? i mean, obsessed. i'm listening to it twenty-four seven. Does anyone else have this unhealthy obsession?

I recently got the DRS album, too. I'm obsessed with "Love is my Legs." The first time I listened to it I almost wet myself when I heard Norbet scream "OH MY GOD!!!! I'M STANDING! I'M STANDING!!!!!!"

Chimp a nice song.

But does anyone else think "Love Sneaks In" is an amazing song? It's a quick but absolutely beautiful and touching song.

I actually really liked "Chimp in a Suit"- it was the first song in DRS that really impressed me. It's a charming number, and perfectly in character.

I like "Great Big Stuff" It reminds me of one of my friends.

I would only call it unhealthy if it is interfering with important aspects of your life. If you have quit your job and are neglecting nutrition and personal hygiene to listen to the song, this would be worrisome.

I am partial to "Here I Am." But, then again, I'm a sucker for big entrance numbers.

The entire OBC is completely addictive--I am loving "The More we Dance"--the lyrics, expertly delivered by John Lithgow, are hilarious!

I just think the whole CD is fabulous. The music could be better, but the lyrics more than make up for it.

Ruprect made me laugh so much I had to have arest afterwards!

If Spamalot beats this show for best score, the world has gone mad. (If Light wins, that's fair enough, because it is in a totally different vein.)

thats so weird because i think that out of Gregory's numbers Like Zis/Like Zat is not his best... oh well, each to his own. i do like Here I Am and Oklahoma has its moments but its not close to my favorite
