...because nobody is a team player.
speak for yourself.
think of all the musicians we'd have to have...
Why do you insist on ruining my fun?
and all that paper wasted on countless reams of sheetmusic!
Do not support it CQorTaboo! Blasphemy!
Can you imagine how much pay the unions would ask for? Cost prohibitive.

We could do it like John Doyle, everyone in the world would be themselves, and also play an instrument. Accompany each other.
vmlinnie - I think that is in the UN charter somewhere.
I'm not sure I understand this thread at all...
Plus there are a lot of people I don't want to hear singing all the time. Especially when they get sad and have to sing a ballad. Run away!
Not to mention everyone would want the big musical number focused on them.
A lot of "I knew the words when I was in front."

I think it would be better titled "why life can't be a musical"
In an alternate universe, I would only request to sing the Money Song with Joel Grey and have the body to fit into that black outfit that Liza M wore. hey, I can dream
Because the lighting sucks.
Because I don't want to be replaced by an American Idol also-ran.
because i don't want to hear my friends attempting to sing.
I also don't think it would work because usually everyone is very cheery and when they're sad its usually resolved within 30 minutes, whereas real life is kind of depressing and it would take years to fix certain issues.
But, I would love to sing with Hunter Foster.
But, like, OH! MY! GOD! we could, like, paint everything pink and fuschia and everyone could have a perfect education and wear, like, you know, perfect shoes and have perfect accesories. And we'd be, like, all witty and funny and stuff, like, all the time!!!! It'd be so OH MY GOD fabulous!!!!!
Now *why* the h*ll cant my life be like that?????
