Yeah, yeah, everyone thinks this is a laugh-riot. I get it, I do.
Has anyone stopped to think that gee, those actually ARE the notes and those ARE the lyrics in that song, aren't they?
I'm not saying Jennifer (either Holliday OR Hudson) didn't do an amazing job turning this thing into a tour-de-force PERFORMANCE. But I AM saying that the song as written (and a lot of the rest of the Dreamgirls score) is mostly hack writing in my book. I'm saying that it REQUIRED a phenomenal performance coupled with great direction and a great orchestration to deliver the ovations the girl got nightly.
Dreamgirls was one of the few times I can think of where an absolutely BRILLIANT show was forged out of a mediocre score, due the amazing talents of its Bookwriter, Director/Choreographer, Designers and Performers. (But I respectfully accept that many of you will heartily disagree with me on this.) For fun and games, name another smash hit that reaches the level of masterpiece DESPITE its score and lyrics.
"Carson has combined his passion for helping children with his love for one of Cincinnati's favorite past times - cornhole - to create a unique and exciting event perfect for a corporate outing, entertaining clients or family fun."
LOL...I just love her commitment and how tough she is in the beginning. "Who's she?!"

Nancy Wilton reminds me of the "Dreamgirls" scene in the movie "CAMPS" hahaha
"The sexual energy between the mother and son really concerns me!"-random woman behind me at Next to Normal
"I want to meet him after and bang him!"-random woman who exposed her breasts at Rock of Ages, referring to James Carpinello
Well I didn't want to get into it, but he's a Satanist.
Every full moon he sacrifices 4 puppies to the Dark Lord and smears their blood on his paino.
This should help you understand the score for Wicked a little bit more.

Is Stephen Schwartz a Practicing Christian
I only have very few "favorites" on youtube and both Nancy and the original link are two of them...
I want to know how the other girls felt when her name was posted on the cast list!

Well, to be fair she was a Business Admin. major and filing wasn't considered a talent.
"If this is going to be a Christian nation that doesn't help the poor, either we have to pretend that Jesus was just as selfish as we are, or we've got to acknowledge that He commanded us to love the poor and serve the needy without condition and then admit that we just don't want to do it." -Stephen Colbert
