Annie OBC - Hooverville

Hi guys! :) I have a question regarding Annie OBC recording and I'm sorry if this question has already been anwsered, but I was wondering, if anyone knows why "We'd like to thank you, Herbert Hoover" is so vasty different than all the later versions of the song. For example, on the OBC, Annie doesn't sing any part of the song, but in the offically published score, she has like two lines to sing. Thank you for your response!

I haven't watched the movie yet, since it doesn't come out in my country untill Thursday, but I recently discovered the clip of Hello Little Girl and I don't see why people are making such a big deal out of it... I mean I don't think that it's THAT disturbing... Yes, Lilla's a bit younger than all the other LRRH were and the song is still a bit creepy, but I mean, come on, in the original production the Wolf's junk was seen. I thnik people are trying to make it sound more disturbing than it is,

Goodbye to Cinderella

Despite its flaws, I think this production had something that shows nowadways usually lack - a heart. No matter how unnecessary some of the newly written book scenes were, the wonderful score by Rodgers and Hammerstein has never been presented in a better way, not even in the magnificent original tv production with Julie Andrews. The musical felt fresh, but it also brought back some of the good old Broadway magic, that has been dearly missed for the last decade or so, since pop songs became the

Song from musical you are obsessed with
Jan 1
2015, 05:32:15 PM
I have to say, I'm obsessed with anything written by Sondheim, like Now You Know, Company, A Weekend in the Country and so on, but the last two months I'm constantly listening How Can Love Survive? and No Way to Stop It from The Sound of Music and A Lovely Night form Cinderella. There's just something about those songs that make them irresistable...  Of course, my no. 1 obsession is still Sondheim.

I know that basically anyone can edit these IMDB pages, but some of the statements written are just ridiculous:
"The Witch and Rapunzel have another heated yelling and screaming fight. This is more real-feeling as it is not done through song."
I mean, why watch a musical, if you don't take the songs seriously?

O.M.G. :O Meryl is simply AH-MAZING!! The things she can do with her voice .... Speechless. Does anyone else think she sounds like Donna Murphy at times? :)
On the other hand, I'm not too fond of the way Cinderella's family sounds. I think they have used auto-tune way too much. Especially on Ms. Baranski, who I find to be an amazing singer. I don't know what went wrong there...
Unless this "weird pitch" is something they were going for with Stepmother and Stepsisters.
Oh yeah, and I too really like Emily Blunt and Lilla Crawford in this. From this little snippets I think they're spot on.
