flaemmchen - I dont think that link works... or maybe it is my computer (my computer does seem to be hating me lately)
Aigoo - I'm actually listening to Light in the Piazza right now and that song is about to come up. Everytime it comes on I try to sing it but I can't pronounce the words correctly (why don't I know Italian... this is when I need it the most!) and plus my singing is horrible to begin with,.. its not a pretty sight to say the least...
Oh flaemmchen I forgot to ask- do you need to suscribe to livejournal to read that page or can I browse without applying?
I listen to that song constantly. It's truly my favorite. I pick up pretty quickly on pronounciation, so I really enjoy sort of mouthing along to it.
The other one that I have started to really like (to listen and sing along to) is the part Octet when she flys into her jealous rage... I think that I am going to start singing the following "Oh I see you stealing... Why because I said so... Go ahead and stare- Jesus this is so unfair!... Joking- I'm not joking!" instead of saying them because they sound so much cooler when sung.
I like the "Jesus, this is so unfair!" part. I found it sort of funny in context...
Let's see...on Piazza, I've lately been obsessed with Aiutami and Light in the Piazza. But I really would rather see it performed than on the CD. It just makes so much more sense...and "Say it Somehow" is just beautiful when performed.
I wish I could see it performed... the more I listen to it, the more I love it and the more I want to go see it... I wish I had heard the songs before my trip to New York and then I could have begged my friend to see if we could get tickets!
Actually, I was able to find a community by going to livejournal.com and typing in "Light in The Piazza".
Who knew?
Life-so-far - try to get back to NYC before January and see it - you won't be sorry. It is truly one of the most brilliant pieces (if not THE most) I have ever had a chance to witness on a stage.
I just saw this show 2 days ago. The songs are amazing. I would think it is a bit confusing for people who don't really know Italian or another romance language. I had taken Italian already for 5 years.
WickedCatsOnTheRoof - did you mean to say something just then?LOL...
haha Yeah. Then I realized you already had that link. Somehow, I skipped right by it the first time I read through.
Sluggy- it didn't work last night whenI tried that... I shall go try it again though...
EDIT: silly me, I forgot to change the thingy to interest instead of Username...
Glad you found it. Enjoy!
redhotinnyc2, hopefully I can get back to New York before then but its a 50/50 chance that I will. Do you know if there are any plans (or if is already- even though I haven't heard anything) for Light in the Piazza to go on tour?
