Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade 2014 — Page 2

I would also assume Side Show chose "Ready to Play" because it's in the slot where "We Share Everything" was and that's what the original production performed on the parade. It's peppy, etc.

Pippin and Matilda are both performing.

Kinda makes you wish they'd gone with a revival of "Golden Rainbow" instead.

Honeymoon showed Danza's vocal limitations but did highlight the fun aspect of the show

Sideshow scored without highlighting the subject matter

Last Ship was good but was it good enough?

Auggie I saw Golden and it was the ultimate knock em dead opening number

Been switching stations and trying to find Pippin on CBS. Have I missed it at this point?

Pippin is performing at 11 est. The last Ship wasn't to impressive, but Sideshow is really what the parade should be! It was amazing!

I liked Honeymoon too! It was fun and intriguing!

Honeymoon has some good music.
omg. That lip syncing is awkward.

I guess we're all having different reactions!

I thought On the Town came off the best, although starting the number with a pre-taped portion was a bit weird. My husband (who hasn't seen the show) keeps saying that the three male leads lack charisma.

I've been avoiding Honeymoon in Vegas because I hate that whole scene with the gambling and the showgirls, and I also despise the Rat Pack sound. This performance made me more determined to stay away.

Gentleman's Guide: Great number, but it's the one they usually do, and the background of Macy's was a bit distracting.

Side Show: My husband (who hasn't seen the show) watching the performance cold thought it was off-putting at first, seeing the twins, I mean, and then afterward he commented it seemed generic. I kept wondering if the freaks would make an appearance, although that wouldn't fit in with the timeline of the show. (Answer: no.)

Was this really the best Last Ship number to choose? The melody seemed really sing-song, with a lot of nah nahs filling space. Not appealing. (I'm seeing the show Sunday.) Although I give Sting credit for what he's doing. I imagine it won't be easy on his voice.

"On The Town" was a perfect performance. I loved that they started the telecast. I was beaming the entire performance.

"Honeymoon in Vegas" was okay. I liked the song, but it didn't really translate that well.

I thought "The Last Ship" was horribly boring.

Weirdly enough, I think "Gentleman's Guide" looked best, even though it wasn't a full production number.

Didn't realize CBS did things differently with their performances. Like not all being in the 1st hour Thanks!

I liked Side Show and On the Town the best. Last Ship looks boring. Yes, the people waving during the Gentleman's Guide performance were distracting and ruined it.

it will probably be on youtube soon!

To be fair, Gentleman's Guide doesn't really have any big show stopping songs. It just so happens that "I've Decided to Marry You" is the closest they have to it. I enjoyed seeing the new Phobe (her name escapes me at the moment).
