Hey everyone - I guess you're writing at the moment, Emcee? I've been thinking about the Rent clips and what a shock they were to me. That's because if I listen to a piece of music a few times, it's like a groove gets worn in my brain. After that, anything different just seems... off. (Helpful at work, otherwise a disaster.)
Anyway, this all reminds me of seeing those godawful pictures of Adam at the DRS premier. Not only was there the shock of the hair, but he looked very down or upset about something. I thought to myself, Adam's going to look like *this* in the movie??? But he's been looking great in the trailer and stills, so that's what I tell myself about the music too.

Gosh, the jungle boy hair!

*pops in* hey everyone!! how are you all?
ok so i just got to listen to the clips today (yes i'm a bit slow on this). Adam hm...i don't know how to really describe it..., but he didn't sound like himself. It sounded like he was a bit stiff and needed to relax a bit more in order to get into the songs. I know that it's hard to judge based on those short clips, but....I dunno. Rosario as well as everyone else sounds fantastic! I'm not crazy about the Will I? soloist, or the Gordon, but I'm sure that I'll get used to it.

I think he just sounds.... more emotional - which, for the character at that point, is okay.

I agree he doesn't sound quite like himself, which made me wonder about the speed on OSG, and that he sounds more emotional. I can imagine this working really well in the movie too.

yeah, he does sound more emotional, but that could either work for him or against him. who knows? i guess we all just have to wait and see.

Yes - wait, wait, wait! Anyway, I'm debating whether to pre-order the soundtrack CD, and maybe have to wait a few days after the actual release date, or take the chance that it will show up at stores on the 27th.
Ponine, your signature is making me want to listen to I'm With You again - it's been a while.

I always find so much amusement in actually going out to buy a new CD... so I think I'll just do that, rather than order it.

emcee-ditto.
chloe- I'm With You is like my theme song. I love it. I listened to Model Prisoner the other day (I had Liken A Razor stuck in my head) and I never realized how different his 2 cd's are. Civilian is more like screamy rock, where MP is like laid back rock.

And of course it will show up in stores - I keep forgetting that this is a big movie and a big record company putting out the CD. The whole thing still feels a little like a secret to me.

Something silly in me looks forward to getting out of class that day and running down to Virgin or Tower or Barnes and Noble to get my copy.

Yes, it will be fun, though I'm not sure how I'll be able to get it - maybe at lunch break. And then I won't be able to play it until I get home!
Ponine, Adam's two CD's really are different and I'm glad there's so much variety to them. I'm With You is definitely a favorite, and after that maybe Cellophane Sun.
(Another flashback: Adam at the Knitting Factory talking to someone in the audience who reminded him that he'd promised to play that song. He said that lots of people there could tell her that unfortunately he promised things all the time and never followed through. He was in a weird mood that night.)

Amazing that you could hear him that well.
I've just been looking at the Julia Murney thread - that picture of Raul, Adam and Julia must be heaven for you! And I've always loved that series from the Chess rehearsal. Where's your avatar from - a Chess site?

I could hear surprisingly well! And I most of the bucket story. Oh God. He was in an odd mood, though - I could even tell it just by audio.
That picture is... that's just a lot of love. I was going to use it for my avatar, but it came out being too squished.
This one is from the Actors' Fund website, though.

Too squished? Everyone was too small you mean? But I like the one you've got - Adam getting angry, Julia looking sort of Greek goddessy. Boy do I wish I'd seen this.

Posted: 8/20/05 at 6:53pm
Yeah, it just... you couldn't really tell who it was a picture of.
I love this scene. It was before the sailing hands, so before things got... wonky on Adam's part. It's just so fierce, as is Ms. Murney.

ok this is a dumb question, but if the actor's fund recorded Hair, why didn't they record Chess? (i know that someone asked this, but is there any "official" reason?)

Did you see Chess, Ponine? I don't remember if you live around NYC or not. So Adam had "sailing hands" in Chess as well as Aida? Don't remember hearing about that. I take it this scene is their big breakup.

There was some sort of rights issue, ponine. I think it was one of two problems:
Either something to do with the fact that Chess has been re-worked so so many times, and that there are many different recordings - though I don't know what specifically the problem would be.
OR, that Josh Groban's record label didn't want him, as "their" artist to record with another label, whoever was planning to record Chess.

Hmm, that's pretty amazing, since I also live on LI about forty minutes from NYC! Are we the same person?
