What recording have you not listened to in over a year?

Posted: 6/10/05 at 1:20pm

Well of course there are many, but have you had a cast recording that you really liked, and could not stop listening to, but you just have not listened to it an over a year?

I listen to most of my cast recordings as often as possible, but I would have to say:
Chicago(st)

And you?

I listened to RENT non-stop for six months when it came out in 1996. I have not listened to it once since 1997!

Oh Jon, me too! I haven't listen to Rent since the 9th grade, and I just finished my first year at college.

Now that I think about it, I haven't listened to Hairspray in a year. Last year and the year before, that's all I could listen to but I just haven't listened to it this year.

Right now, I'm discovering RENT (yes, I JUST bought the cast album three weeks ago.)

The recording for The Lion King, and though it hasn't been a year, I don't think I've listened to Wicked all the way through (I listened to two songs that I was working on for voice/choir, but that's it) in about 6 months.

Probably Avenue Q. Some of the funny songs just don't have the same effect after listening to them over and over.

The Wicked OBCR. Last year, I listened to it NON-STOP, and I grew kind of tired of it. Most of the songs skip now anyway.

Norbert Leo Butz quotes about John Lithgow: "He's really clumsy. One of the joys in life is to watch a great big huge man totally wipe out backstage. It takes John about three minutes to hit the floor. It's like watching a Great Sequoia falling gracelessly."
