Good job by Dacal et al. Beautiful harmonies!

I too despise some of Wildhorn's music, but the truth is, he's got a knack for writing a good hook now and again. The problem is, like Lloyd Webber, he just can't find a decent collaborator, and awful lyrics constantly plague his music. He has to scale back on the modulations as well, and "Finding Wonderland" does not change keys. Decent finale, but from what I've heard, Blunderland was mostly forgettable.

We are the New York Knicks! / We are the New York Knicks! / We are the New York Knicks! / We are the New York Knicks! / Say "Go New York, go New York, go!” / (Go New York, go New York, go!) / Say "Go New York, go New York, go!" / (Go New York, go New York, go!)
