There's a song called "Omigod You Guys"?

Am I the only one who fears for the fate of humankind?

it's actually not a terribly bad opening number. I've been listening to it whenever I feel down... it cheers me up.

I REALLY HATE THAT SONG (OMIGOD). They sing it not once, not twice, but THREE times during the show. Once was more than enough. I did like the "Legally Blonde Remix" and the Gay or European song used in the courtroom scene.

I saw the show again for the second time, tonight, and even though I love the show, the energy was very low today, maybe it was just the audience. I felt bad...they are so working their BUTTS off for this show. I got to talk to Andy Karl tonight people around were mentioning that changes are coming next week, so we will see what happens.

Did not notice anything different tonight except some new blocking movements and stuff, and Buzzier upstage Laura Bell Bundy and the ensemble in one of the first scenes that Buzzier is on (when Elle arrives at Harvard), Buzzier would not just stop barking...audience and the ensemble loved it, a lot of improvising.

Still a fun show...

jimnysf-- What do you mean, they sing it three times? Are we talking a full six-minute song, three times through? Or a full opening number with two reprises?

It's the opening song and it's reprised twice near the end of Act 2. For some reason, it just works my last nerve. I'd heard the demo and thought well, maybe I'll like it in the theatre but I still hated that song. I know some love it but....

I thought the first reprise was fine, and appropriate, but I didn't like it ending the show. I want the show to be more "Hairspray" in the sense that it has a completely new song at the end that is not a reprise.

Jacob: Just listen to the songs and transcribe the lyrics yourself if you want them that badly. Two of the songs are available for download here: http://shnsf.com/shows/show.asp?key=18&subkey=513
And "So Much Better" is on the 3-song sample CD several people have.

I try that but I can't hear some of the words clearly. And I don't type real fast and I will have to stop the song and pause it every time. I also don't know who is singing each part (characters).

So how would we know the characters? Anyone who gives you the lyrics will have transcribed them from the song. I can give you a general idea of who's singing and what the words are if you give me specific instances where you're having trouble...

...what do you need it for?

I was wondering where to get lyrics as well, and transcribing could a bit hard since not all of the words are clearly heard.

Yes, but can you tell us which character is singing each line?

Posted: 1/29/07 at 8:44pm

sorry, I can't tell you which character sings each line but here are the lyrics to "Omigod"(b/c i'm procrastinating studying for a test). There's one phrase in there that I'm not sure of.

Dear elle, he's a lucky guy, I'm like gonna cry, i got tears comin outta my nose.
Mad props! he's the campus catch you're a perfect match cause you've both got such great taste in clothes, of course he will propose.
Dear elle, honey mazel toff future's takin off, bring that ring back and show it to me,
Four carats and princess cut are you psyched or what?! I just wish I could be there to see when he gets down on one knee.
Oh my god, oh my god you guys, looks like elle's gonna win the prize,
if there ever was a perfect couple this one qualifies, omigod you guys.
oh my god this is happening, our own homecoming queen and king.
finally she'll be trying on a huge engagement ring for size omigod you guys. omigod!
okay, everybody sign 'good!' now fall in line and we'll start the engagement parade.
Light candles in single file, don't forget to smile, "lose the gum, kate- you look like the maid"
now prepare to serenade.
Sh! Oh my god, omigod you guys looks like elle's gonna win the prize- Sh!
If there ever was a perfect couple this one quali- sh!
Omigod- "sh-I'm serious!"
Elle and Warner were meant to be.
Not once ever has he hit on me- "Shut up!"
They're just like that couple from Titanic- only no one dies
Oh my god! 2, 3, 4
Daughter of Delta Nu, soon to be fiance,
now that a man chose you, your life begins today.
Make him a happy home, waste not his hard-earned wage,
and so he does not roam, try not to look you age.
*I don't know*, let it be understood,
no man can supercede our sacred bond of sisterhood.
Oh my god, omigod you gah-......"Bruiser! Where's Elle?"
*bark!* "She realized she doesn't have an engagement outfit?"
*bark!* "She's totally freaking out?"
*bark!* "She's trapped in the Old Valley Mill?"
*bark, bark!* "Oh sorry...the Old Valley Mall..." *collective gasp from all Delta Nus*
Omigod, omigod, omigod, omigod, omigod!
"It's almost there." This dres needs to seal the deal, make a grown man kneel, but it can't come right out and say bride.
Can't look like I'm desperate or like i'm waiting for it
I gotta leave Warner his pride, so bride is more implied
"there she is!"
Oh my god, omigod you guys, all this week i've had butterflies.
Every time he looks at me it's totally propose-alized- "omigod you guys!"
So help me dress for my fairytale, can't wear something I bought on sale
Love is like forever this is no time to economize- omigod you guys
"Excuse me- have you seen this? It just came in. It's perfect for a blonde."
"Riiight, with a half-lube stitch on China silk?"
"uh huh!"
"But the thing is...you can't use a half-lube stitch on China silk- it'll pucker"
oh my god, omigod you guys....
"And you didn't just get this in because I saw it in last May's Cosmo"
....Elle saw right through that salesgirl's lies
"I'm not about to buy last year's dress at this year's price" I may be in love but I'm not stupid, lady I've got eyes-
"Oh my god- Elle Woods!" Sorry our mistake. Courtney, take your break. Just ignore her she hasn't been well. Try this- latest from Milan. Go on try it on! I take care of my best clientele, it's a gift from me to elle
Oh my god, omigod you guys. This one's perfect and it's just my size
See dreams really do come true you never have to compromise, Omigod
Oh my god, omigod you guys. let's go home before someone cries
If there ever was a perfect couple this one qualifies, cause we love you guys
"no, I love you guys!"
Omigod
Omigod
Omigod you guys! "Omigod!"

I'll do the other two as well if you want.

So Much Better (to the best of my knowledge)

All of this time I felt
I’d be patient and he would love me again
He’d come to respect my mind
And at last he’d find you could love me again
And I have turned my whole world upside down
Trying not to let you go
Watching you walk away is like a fatal blow

Wait! Woah!
Is that my name up on that list?
Does someone know that I exist?
Am I awake? Is this a mistake?
Look again just to be sure.

Yes! That is my name in black and white
I must be doing something right
Wow I feel so much better
Hello, much better
One look at me, you’d go, Woah! Much better!
Cause I am so much better than before

Warner! Sorry I’ve been a pest
But it seems my best
Was not working with you
But looks like I found a cure
And I so look forward to working with you

Hey, remember when we spent spring break
In the hot tub every night?
We said nothing else could ever feel so right
Well this might!

Seeing my name up on that list
That beats the first time that we kissed
Behind you was hiding
The whole world outside
And I’ve opened the door

Look at that name in black and white
It’s like making love with you all night
No way! It feels so much better
Hello, much better
It’s so-oh-oh-oh-OH! Much better!
Cause I am so much better than before

I am so much better than before
I am so much better than before

Maybe now she’s got the ring
Lots of things could change by spring
Maybe I’ll get one more shot
I’d say yes, and I might not
Maybe I’m a bigger threat
Maybe you’re a better bet
Better start agreein’ (What?)
Maybe you’re not seein’

My name up on that list
Sure beats the first time that we kissed
Throw me out on the street
I’ll get back on my feet
I’m completely hardcore

I’ve got my name in black and white
And I have not begun to fight
But I feel so much better
Hello, much better
Come on, let’s go,
I can go much better
Cause I am so much better

I’ve dreamed of your name next to my own
But mine’s looking fine up there alone
Oh wait, where’s my phone?
Mom’s got to be shown
She will fall on the floor (Hey mom!)

Look at my name in black and white
Your daughter's doin’ something right
And it feels so much better
Hello, much better
I know how far I can go, much better

Cause I am so much better
I am so much better
Cause I am so much better
I am so much better
Than before!

ETA: Now that I've written down the lyrics, I love how true they are to the situation from both the film and the show. "I’ve dreamed of your name next to my own/ But mine’s looking fine up there alone" and "Seeing my name up on that list/ That beats the first time that we kissed" aren't the most clever lyrics, but they're so true to the film and what needs to be done in that scene. I love it.
