I don't know if this was posted so apologies if it has been.
The show's website has the entire song.
I Love it!
The orchestra sounds much better than in the commercial.
Cheno and Gallagher nail it.
I've Got It All
They sound great!
Not as crazy about it. She doesn't find as much humor in the lyrics as Madeline Kahn did, and he already sounds like he's straining to hit some of the notes. It's not Gallagher's fault that his voice isn't as strong as John Cullum's, but I wonder if he's going to have a hard time doing this 8 times a week. I saw him in Guys & Dolls when he was clearly having a hard time with the songs.
I loved it, and you're right, Taz, the orchestra sounded much better than I expected.
CAN'T. FRIGGIN'. WAIT. FOR. THIS. TO. OPEN!!!!
Sounds great! I have my ticket for the night after opening night!
Love it. Sounds like the perfect role for Cheno's voice. Ghallagher sounds way crisper than I'd have guessed. Can't wait for this to open. (And I loved Kahn and company onstage in the original.) Having 20th Century, On the Town and King and I on Broadway in the same season will be glorious.

They both sound terrific. I forgot how much I like most of the score. The only clinker for me is Our Private World. It is so slow and boring. Better than a sleeping pill at night. That song can put me out in half a minute.
@pippin423 My problem with Our Private World is the lyrics are so literal. A famous director and actress are saying "our private world is like a play about a pair of lovers; the plot says only we may enter and only we may share the light of love stage center." For a show whose score I mostly love, that song has to be some of Comden & Green's most rudimentary work.
I liked it. I'll always regret not seeing the original production. Had a chance in 1979, but my best friend had already seen it. We opted for Eubie! instead (I don't regret that choice though).
Just stumbled on a video of them recording the clip:

I love how in some clips Cheo has her sweater on and in others it's off!
