Can i also add, albeit rather belatedly, CONGRATULATIONS to everyone associated with the show on winning the award last night. This award is richly deserved and a great credit to those people who work so hard so we can enjoy this amazing show.
WELL DONE to one and all

Is it just me or is it a different boy singing on "Electricity" and "The Letter"

It's definitely James on The Letter (Reprise) and it also sounds like him on Electricity. Think Liam is singing The Letter and Express Yourself.
liam i think singing electricity. his voice can be compared with electricity which he sang in CIN.
I believe The letter (Reprise) is James. but the letter is liam
Correct me if I'm wrong!
Thanks mitchmagi for the website link. It brings back memories listening to the clips and I want to see it again but I can't... I hope it says on the cd which Billy sings each song. They must have recorded it before James' voice broke. I love how you can hear the tap dancing in the angry dance. Oh I just love this show!
I thought it was James singing the Letter Reply, George singing Electricity and Liam singing the original Letter, but that may be completely wrong... Really we've got no idea until we actually get the CD.
I'm so excited; going this Thursday!! They might tell us at the theatre..?
further pictures from the evening standard awards with the four billys can be found on the following link:

I believe Liam sings all the Billy songs on the cast recording. I think it is Brad and Liam singing 'Express Yourself' and possibly George tapping on 'Angry Dance'. I don't see how it can be James singing the Letter reprise as his voice had already broken when they recorded the album.
Most sound like Liam. The Letter Reprise doesn't sound like Liam and it is in a lower key than The Letter so that may be one of the others.
Hi All
I'm sure it is all pressed and ready to go now so whatever we all think, and want, as to who is singing what, it is just a case now of wait and see!
Unless someone does think it would be a clever marketing ploy to bring out different versions with all the different Billys (and Michaels) doing their own songs! Surely they wouldn't do that so the real avid fans would feel they have to buy all the versions, would they ?... if there is money to be made, I'm sure they would.
We have all spent a small fortune seeing the show lots of times - so that we could see all the Billys (and I still haven't seen Leon and Joey yet) so they might just be aware that there is a 'captive audience' ready to buy anything they can get ahold of!
Oh well, roll on Monday.... then we can have all the messages from people saying what they do and don't like about it !!
On another note....
Who is going to be at Saturday's show ? I am going to try and get day tickets as I haven't been able to get any others and - if I can get them - the front row should be a great place to be.
If I can't get tickets I am thinking of coming up anyway between the matinee and the evening performance to collect a few more autographs on my poster/programme and hopefully get to sign George's card.
Just wondering who from here is actually going to be around where and at what time. Maybe we should all have our own little 'street party' outside the Stage Doors (pub and theatre) around about 6.30 !
Is that not George on the Letter (reprise) and I thought it was Liam on the others. Congratulations to all in the show on winning the Award. It is completely deserved. Looking forward to Saturday like everyone here who's going seems to be

Thanks to Robyn:
Hi everyone,
I've not been on here for a while but just thought I’d let some of you new members know about a few other Billy Elliot Fansites…
The first is: http://billyelliotthemusical.me.uk/forum/
This forum has been set up by a lady called Lin and is where all the fans that use to post on here are at.
The second is: http://www.billyelliotfans.com/
This is the Billy Elliot fansite set-up for us fans! On here you’ll see a gallery page where a lot of photos from the show are now being displayed…
...if you have any to share with us, please email: admin_img@billyelliotfans.com
All the best,
Electricity
P.S. Those of you going on Saturday, see you all at the Stage Door pub!
I definitely reckon George is singing Electricity, and James is singing the Letter Reply and Liam is doing the original letter and Expressing Yourself. It seems a bit unfair that Liam got the most...
Also, where do you queue for day tickets, at the theatre or is there somewhere else that you have to go? argh, help me!!
