why is Stars and the Moon so hard to sing??

or am I the only one who feels this way?

I'm trying to learn it and...it's hard...

I think it's the head/chest transition.

Any comments would be appreciated! =)

Because Jessica Molaskey is heaven on earth.

It's not hard to sing if you're a guy. It sits on the A for a while, which is (I'm told) in the chest range of a girl, and then it goes up to c's and such, which are typically head range notes, unless you're belting, which isn't good for the song.

For guys, all that stuff is in the comfortable chest range, and I say this as a bass.

Blame Jason Robert Brown (who is, I might add, a guy), who wrote it.

Because you touch yourself at night.

I don't think it's hard at all, I learned it in two days oddly enough. I was surprised with it myself but when I did find that listening to the recording of it twice helped me hear better when I went off.

And hang on, when did you win the discus?

Most songs are easier if you "act" them out....get into the intent, tell the story and it should come to you.
