You could drive a person crazy
With so little to be sure of
Children will listen
Move on
Being Alive

Qolbinau,
This is not meant to be rude and please don't take it the wrong way, but you really did not know "Some Enchanted Evening "?
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.

Of course I do :P - I mean I didn't know the song that goes in that 'placeholder'. I.e. she sung a song between some enchanted evening and wish upon a star..that I didn't know.
She had some random harmonica player or something IIRC that played with her for the song in question, too.
It would be strange if out of all the songs she sang Some enchanted evening would be the one I didn't recognise, haha.

Posted: 9/16/09 at 9:12amI've checked with the director, Richard Jay-Alexander (who is also directing BroadwayWorld.com's Standing Ovations V on November 1) and he notes that "negotiations for airdate in the U.S. and DVD release are just now beginning."

Posted: 9/16/09 at 9:48amI hope she sang "Adelaide's Lament."

Posted: 9/16/09 at 9:51amI must admit that when I first saw this thread title, I read it as 'Bernadette Peters AS Adelaide'.

Posted: 9/16/09 at 8:08pmIt's a trick post PalJoey. I read it as "Bernadette Peters as Adelaide" too...lol. Seriously, I'm looking forward to this concert too. I have a DVD of her night club act from the seventies which I mail ordered from Brazil of all places and the "Bernadette in London" DVD concert from a while back. It would be great to have something new. Thanks for the post Alxscrz2.

I had no idea this existed. How did I miss this?
I also read this as Bernadette as Adelaide and thought there was a video of it somewhere. I almost plotzed as she once would have been ideal for the role.

I agree, Bobby! She would have been wonderful as Miss Adelaide!
I don't really care for the song list, I mean, the second half is basically the same as her London concert. I love Bernie, I'm definitely buying the DVD, but the song list needs to change.
"Some people can thrive and bloom living life in a living room, that's perfect for some people of one hundred and five. But I at least gotta try, when I think of all the sights that I gotta see, all the places I gotta play, all the things that I gotta be at"

Posted: 9/16/09 at 11:24pmGlad I'm not the only one who thought, "OOOO, she would have been perfect."
Some people paint, some people sew, I meddle.

Posted: 9/16/09 at 11:31pmHaving Bernie in the last revival would may have saved it...

I can't wait for this DVD, the song list sounds awesome. I wish she would've added some songs from Annie Get Your Gun and Mack & Mabel, like Look what happened to Mabel or Wherever he aint.

Posted: 6/14/10 at 3:56pmI also thought it was a "Bernie As Adelaide" thread. She would have been awesome as Adelaide 30 years ago!
