DRS- Oklahoma? ???

Why do they spell the song with a ?? Huh?
#2

re: DRS- Oklahoma? ???

I would imagine to differentiate it from "Oklahoma!"
#3

re: DRS- Oklahoma? ???

Maybe b/c it's an exciting song but they couldn't put a ! b/c that's already the title of a musical? I dunno.

No kidding. Even Arkansas got its own song.

Arkansas, Arkansas, I just love old Arkansas
Love my ma, love my pa, but I just love ole Arkansas.

The original song is written with an exclamation point "Oklahoma!" - so it's just one more thing to parody that, I believe.


Edit: I LOVE This song too! It's hysterical and she had a wonderful comic verve. One of my favorite roles on Broadway.

I have a question too: why was this song written at all? Oy. It was painful to sit through.

I saw it and thought Sarah Gettelfinger was quite talented...and John Lithgow's dancing during the number was quite amusing...

re: DRS- Oklahoma? ???

One of my favorite parts of the show too. Song's hilarious and Sara is so funny performing it!
#18

re: DRS- Oklahoma? ???

I thought Sara really sold it -- I fell in love with her the minute she was on stage and was thrilled when she broke out into this bug, flashy, corny production number. And I think it hilarious that the song ends with the chorus boys singing, in unison, "melanoma!"

re: DRS- Oklahoma? ???

Sara is Fabulous. Has anyone seen Rachelle Rac or Julie Connors play Jolene??
