Snafu, so true. I'm loving what I've heard so far! Kinda' a hybrid of the original arrangements and the film's arrangements. The vocals are fab and the production of the album is warm and full. ...As I'm out in San Francisco, the cast recording will have to get me through until I can make my trip out there for my next show pilgrimage...
I've heard so far:
Ain't Got No Grass
I Got Life
My Conviction
Where Do I Go
Electric Blues
Black Boys
Walking in Space
3-5-0-0
What a Piece of Work Is Man/How Dare They Try?
Curtain Call: Let the Sun Shine In (reprise)

Posted: 5/15/09 at 4:31pmI can't wait to get home from work and listen, I'm so excited!
If people have split views about your work, I think it's flattering. I'd rather have them feel something about it than dismiss it.

It's so annoying having to wait through all the other stuff to get to the new recording stuff haha, but it sounds SO good so far!!
I Got Life was just on and *le sigh*, Gavin <3
Now Where Do I Go needs to come on!!
Cannot wait until the 26th. This recording is going to be on repeat for me ALL summer
I don't need a life that's normal. That's way too far away. But something next to normal would be okay. Something next to normal is what I'd like to try. Close enough to normal to get by.

Posted: 5/16/09 at 11:39pmWhy don't they just put it up on itunes now if it's ready? This is so annoying.

Posted: 5/16/09 at 11:57pmI'm sure there's all sorts of red tape and things involved in releasing these things.

Posted: 5/17/09 at 12:06amYeah, someone on here wrote that in their review. The man had seen the show before and asked to trade seats so he could give Will $100.
