... placed "RENT: The Original Broadway Cast" CD on hold at my local library...

Cool, I'm listening to La Vie Boheme right now.

Good for you!

(I don't really like it that much. I find it hard to listen to. But don't tell anyone!)

Yay! *claps*

Oh, Doxy, that hurts me real bad. It's okay though. I never got around to educating myself on that Sondwho? fellow.

Well I've never really tried to listen to it...

But some of the songs just don't do it for me. I LOVE "Too gay for you, Too hetero for me" though

(Just not the original)

I'll get around to listening to all of it one day...

For now I'll content myself with that Sondheim guy...

Better late than never I guess. This cd has been out for 9 years.

oh M.E. i'm so proud!!! I want to hear a full report of your reaction. And Paradox ,.i've never heard of anyone not falling in love with the music INSTANTLY, it's very accessable and takes no time to get used to I thought. You're just...weird =P LOL Sorry ,I just get protective of my baby sometimes!

*sigh* Doxy, I'd think you'd be more lenient on a show whose composer worshipped Sondheim.

it actually took me a long time to like rent. i got the cd as a gift, and i listented to it and all i got out of it was confusion and a headache. but then my friend invited me to see it for her birthday and after that i loved it and since then i havent been able to stop playing it.

haha yes, ive always loved the fact that sondhiem was larsons idol for some reason. maybe because their music is so different.."to sondhiem!"

Mary_Ethel, you really don't need to wear that beanie and scarf just to listen to it...although they are very fetching!

M_E..after you listen to it in English I can make you a copy of my Italian Cast and German Cast Recordings. My favorite is the Italian version of "One Song Glory", but the funniest is the German Cast singing "Seasons Of Love". Try singing "Five Hundred Twenty-Five Thousand Six Hundred minutes" in German !!!

can you just get a CD from the library and then burn it and have the CD for free?

[kangaroo]

Posted: 3/30/05 at 10:14pm

of course you could, but wasn't there a petition going around saying about how too many people were burning Broadway CDs, so they were going to stop making them? We definitely don't want that to happen...
