Posted: 4/9/08 at 9:27pmYes he did sing 'the times that she died'. He should really learn his lyrics.

Posted: 4/9/08 at 9:31pmThe whole time I was sitting here trying to figure out who it was that was off and causing the song to sound terrible. And quickly realized it was Kristy. It could've sounded gorgeous without her completely screwing it up.. I literally cringed half the song.

It was horrible!! I agree about Cook- he would make an excellent Rent cast member. 
So, that was the Drowsy Chaperone. Oh, I love it so much. I know it's not a perfect show...but it does what a musical is supposed to do. It takes you to another world, and it gives you a little tune to carry with you in your head for when you're feeling blue. Ya know?

yeah, um, David Cook needs to play Roger in RENT!! like, now.
aaand I actually.. kinda thought it was pretty. At first it was wierd because it was much.. lower or something than SOL usually is, but once I got used to it I liked it! There WAS someone who was a lil off, but.. it's pretty hard to really make that song sound flat out BAD haha
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.

^OH yeah, I think I have actually. Yeahhh.. remixes don't count. That's just completely effing the song up and it's horrible.
But like, if you actually stay true to what the song is SUPPOSED to be, it's hard to make it sound bad :P

antonijan, it's on youtube. And it hurts my soul. No one sang with any emotion. My choir sounded better
Oh, and I almost forgot to mention...I'm the good cop, he's the bad cop.

Just got done watching it. They should have split up Joanne's part between Syesha and Carly.
David was good, but he screwed up the lyrics.

Two roads diverged in a wood, and I?
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.
