People & critics blast Wildhorn for his power ballads
Seems to me " You'll Never Walk Alone" is a power ballad but because it is R & H no one says anything. Wildhorn songs, it has been said, are good for ice skating meetings. I think having your song "Gold " in an Olympics ceremony ain't bad. People & critics will hate him no matter what he does. None of these people have any idea how hard it is to write music & will never write a note. I like Jerry Herman but to me Hello Dolly was overrated. There, I said it
I would rather have my song sung at the Olympics than have it used year after year to close out a telethon ( for a worthy cause though )

I know, I think Jerry Herman can be very campy at times, althought I love La Cage!
Critics will just always hate Wildhorn, even though I love him, Frank you just keep doing what you have been doing! :P
his next one needs to be good or there may be trouble. is he still pushing that camille claudel idea?

I think if Eder will star in Camille he will get backers. If not, I believe the crirics have probably put a stake in his heart. Wonder who their next whipping boy will be than ?
Wildohorn should do all his scores as concept albums. This way, those who enjoy his music ( myself among others ) can enjoy his music & the critics will be spared reviewing another one of his shows
If I was a billionaire, just to screw the critics, i would revive all of his shows. Any other show in development I would stage so there would be Wildhorn mania & 5 or 6 or 7 shows running at the same time.
