Has anyone cried listening to the song "There's a Fine, Fine Line" from Avenue Q? I did because I can kind of relate to it. I want to know your opinions on the song or the show in general. I might see it next year if my chorus director chooses it as a show to see.

I can't say I personally have. I would be really suprised if a director took their students to this show, because it is SO inapropriate. (I would probably feel uncomfortable watching it with a teacher! lol)

Haven't cried no... but it is a very emotional song!

I teared up in the theatre during that song. The segway scene really starts it all off.

I definitely did...... but it probably had something to do with the very messy breakup I was in the middle of at the time.

I've cried many many times while listening to that song. It's so sad... and so good... ;_;

This is one of my all time favourite songs.
The first time I heard it was on Accuradio and I can relate to every single line in that song. It just hit so close to home. I cried and cried, then bought the cd and sheet music, worked on it for 7 months with my vocal coach and sang it for a recital. I hoped it would provide some sort of relief from the situation and bring some closure, especially since the person it was geared to was right in front of me, but it didn't. The song though, gah, it gets me every time.

"I guess if someone doesn't love you back, it isn't such a crime, but there's a fine, fine line between love and a waste of time."

I have yet to cry while listening to this song, but it does hit pretty hard, being one of those songs that, slightly unbeknownest to me, predicts what's to come in my life at the moment. Recently a guy I was dating was driving me home from Athens, Ga, where I spent the night at his dorm room and we were listening to Avenue Q on his Ipod. Now before I went to stay with him we had been getting to know each other and it seemed so right for us to get involved in a relationship because we had so much in common and it was one of those things where you think you just KNOW it'll happen. But when it got to this song, I got the sickening feeling that had bothered me all morning again and I thought "oh ****, why do I get the feeling I'll cross the line over to the waste of time part" and surely, when we pulled into my driveway , he said "I don't deserve you right now, I thought I could do a relationship but I can't. I really really like you, blah blah blah" so yeah, instead of love I got the waste of time.

so now conversation is quite lifeless and drab between the two of us so I closed the door and stopped trying.


so there's my story :-p.

I definitely got a little misty eyed the first time I heard it, and also the two times I've seen it. Stephanie is effing amazing.

You know what song made me kind of get choked up? Don't laugh... Let Me Walk Among You from Bat Boy. Rofl.

I've also cried during "I Wish I Could Go Back to College" too

How on EARTH has Corine missed this thread? I won't speak for anybody BUT, I'd be shocked if she didn't say yes to this!

Yes I did. That song has a very deep thread with me that not even my best friend knows about.

Yeah, this song is very personal for me as well...especially the love vs. waste of time... ah, the joys of unrequited love!
