Posted: 12/20/06 at 12:15pmI think I'm more upset with Kelly calling Ashley Browne Amanda Browne and Josh Strickland Josh Something

Posted: 12/20/06 at 12:24pmThere's a fine line between bitchy humor and nerdy theatre geek humor... This page has some prime examples of both...

I think what is really worse, musicrox, is that you say you are upset that Kelly Rippa called Ashley by the wrong name. I assume this is because you are a fan. However, if you are a fan, shouldn't you know that her last name is spelled "Brown" instead of "Browne". It's not a typo either, cause you wrote it twice. Sorry, not trying to be bitchy, I just found it ironically funny.

I know this is going to be very, very upsetting for many of you, but go look up almost any Broadway cast recording on amazon.co.uk and it will be listed as a soundtrack. Yes, IT'S TRUE!!

Does it matter what it's called, as long as it means the same thing?
Er...the point is, it doesn't mean the same thing. "Cast recording" isn't a term invented by a group of show queens--it's the proper name for a recording of a show's cast. Soundtracks are for movies--music that has been recorded and plays over the motion of a film. Although you could call the soundtrack of a movie musical a "cast recording" and technically be correct (since it is a recording of that cast), it doesn't really work the other way around.
"If there is going to be a restoration fee, there should also be a Renaissance fee, a Middle Ages fee and a Dark Ages fee. Someone must have men in the back room making up names, euphemisms for profit."

#37Is It That Bad?
Posted: 12/20/06 at 10:03pmSometimes, when I'm with a friend that's particularly un-theatre-savvy, I'll refer to it as a soundtrack, just because I know they don't know what a cast recording is. Maybe Beyonce just didn't think the American public knew what a cast recording was?

Beyonce wouldn't have thought that deeply.
And, Cast Recording and Soundtracks are DIFFERENT THINGS! I'm bugged by that as much as people call musicals, just a "play"
Technically, it's a musical play, but musicals should be called as musicals.

Yeah, they're not the same thing, but 99% of the population lumps them together.

Yeah, that bothers me.

Why has no one pointed that finger at Kim Crobsy? Shouldn't she know better than Beyonce? Kim Crosby is actually on a cast recording and she doesn't call it a cast recording.
J'accuse Kim Crosby! J'accuse!

Assuming, of course, that no one crosses a boundary that YOU find offensive . . .

I'm sorry but even the NYT now calls cast recordings "soundtracks"...
So get over it!
"It does what a musical is supposed to do; it takes you to another world. And it gives you a little tune to carry in your head. Something to take you away from the dreary horrors of the real world. A little something for when you're feeling blue. You know?"

"And she doesn'r speak very well."
Well you don't (yes, that's a t at the end, not an r) spell very well.
Oh! And I believe Beyonce spells theatre with an -er, not an -re. Let's hang her by her weave!

Posted: 12/21/06 at 11:33amI’ll never understand why people let themselves get so worked up over the cast recording/soundtrack thing. As far as I’m concerned, if I’ve corrected someone once and he or she still calls it a soundtrack, I’ve done my part. That person is the one who looks stupid, not me. I understand being annoyed, but I don’t understand the blood-boiling anger some people get because of this. Why let yourself get worked over something so minor in the grand scheme of things?
