We really like Jason Robert Brown's song "I Could Be in Love With Someone Like You," and shared the lyrics with our blog's readers on St. Valentine's Day. See http://thewildgeese.com/blogs/2006/02/yen-for-irish-lass.html. It's one of those rare songs that elicited a sense of "Wow," when its last note sounded. And what witty and fun lyrics! And quite a story about how Brown is said to have withdrawn the song from "The Last Five Years" show after a threat of litigation by his ex-wife, who felt the song tracked their failed marriage a little too closely.
