A rooster says 'Good Morning'
with a cock-a-doodle doo.
Good morning!

Songs that resonate with me...

"Finishing The Hat" from Sunday in the Park
"Why" from Tick...Tick...Boom
"Who Will Love Me As I Am" from Side Show (yeah, Broadwaylilhead, I'm with you on that one)
"Heart and Music" and "In the Middle of the Room" from A New Brain
and I've connected with most of what Jaime sings in "The Last 5 Years"

---

It seems "No Good Deed Goes Unpunished" is starting to be my matra.

---

Being Alive - Company

The Stars and the Moon - Songs for a New World (relates to my good friend...)

Stranger In This World - Taboo

---

Well, considering that I'm almost 16, taking driving lessons, and always hating my parents (lol j/k) I would have to say "Mama I'm A Big Girl Now" from Hairspray!

---

Defying Gravity-I don't like being told what to do, or more I feel like I am being trapped alot "I'm through with playing by the rules of someone else's game.

Corner of the Sky- I always feel like I'm not satisfied with what I have. I want to find out what kind of person I'll become and profession I'll have. For that matter, I think "Purpose" is a good one.

---

dancing through life is also about being yourself and you wont act like an imbusel (or however you spell it) ex. "those who don't try, never look foolish." I like that song too.

---

I have not actually seen Wicked because I live in the UK *cries and stamps feet!* but I'm sure my discman is getting a little tired of the CD...aw well

At the moment "Anytime" from William Finn's "Elegies." When I first got the CD for Christmas, I heard the song and bawled my eyes out. I lost my maternal grandmother to cancer in July 2001 and I hadn't cried since then. Then this last week I lost my paternal grandmother and the song was such a big comfort. Anyway, happier topics. Other songs I identify with:

"I'm Not That Girl"/"On My Own" - I think everyone has had unrequited love in their life at least once and if you haven't you are really really lucky.

"Unusual Way" - This came on when I was on the way to see the unrequited love of my life who has no idea of my love, after they went off to college and came back for Thanksgiving. When Laura Benanti (in the revival) sings "You don't know what you do to me, you don't have a clue, you can't tell what it's like to be me looking at you" I teared up and had to circle the block a couple of times to regain my composure.

"Defying Gravity" - the line "Too long I've been afraid of loosing love I guess I've lost well if that's love it comes at much too high a cost"

ANYTHING from "The Last Five Years" especially "See I'm Smiling," "Shiksa Goddess," and "If I Didn't Believe In You."

There's much more but I could go on for pages so I'll stop now =)
