Yea, I never really feel like my vist to New York is complete unless someone named Tony waits on me. I mean that IS New York!
PEACE.

re: Wildhorn writes crappy NYC anthem

The article said it's a rough demo which indicates it was put out there just as a test run, so they are really jumping the gun on this. And I'm wondering if Wildhorn actually wrote the lyrics, which he usually does not do, so they could just be maligning the wrong person anyway. The headline of this thread should be "The Post Writes a Crappy Article", but that would be SO redundant.

The article is certainly short on details.

Was this anthem written for a specific purpose? Where did "those within earshot" hear it? Why were they within earshot? Did Wildhorn write the lyrics?

Too few details. Makes me wonder if Guzman was even in attendance himself?


Rest in peace, Iflitifloat.

I take offense...I'm from Jersey and we don't accept trash.

Wildhorn should write Jersey's anthem.

"With lyrics like "It's a hot dog from Coney, it's a waiter named Tony" and "Go paint the town — paint it up, paint it down," the tune captures the city like a black-velvet poster of the skyline. Derivative, cliched and hokey beyond belief, it's an embarrassment — even from a composer The Post once called "the Kmart Andrew Lloyd Webber." "

ouch

Broadwaystar2b, he deserved it for all the bullsh*t he pulled with the 'Dracula' recording.

Thenardier...it's kind of wrong to call a whole state trash. It's one of the most beautiful states. Apparently you have never been to the Jersey shore.

Thernardier, stop exaggerating. If anything, us New Yorkers treat Jersey like it's our own trash-deposit which we really must stop. It has some really beautiful parts, especially, like Foa said, the shore. Can't beat it. (Although I prefer my Long Island beaches a bit more...)

I tend to agree that NJ is where we send our "trash." Since NY/Li has closed its garbage dumps, NJ (and PA) is where most of our "trash" now goes...hehehehe

That being said NJ has some pretty beaches, which pale in comparison to south shore of li though...

There is nothing like the beaches on the south shore. I lived in florida for a few years for college, and sadly the beaches up here are much nicer then even the "white" sand beaches of fla.

You don't know the armpit of the nation until you driven through most of Louisiana. New Orleans is fun, but as for the rest...
