Those are actually from the demo of ITH, which has been around for awhile.
They recorded a different version for the cast recording, as some of the songs were revised for the Broadway incarnation.
But I'm glad to hear you like the songs :)

Posted: 4/6/08 at 6:36pmthe new cast recording is going to be SO MUCH better with the new orchestrations and everything.

Posted: 4/6/08 at 8:56pm"It Won't Be Long Now" really hasn't changed since then, but I like the new version of "En Washington Heights" so much better than the one that's on the myspace.

Posted: 4/6/08 at 8:58pmfor me, something like "96,000" just doesn't do justice without the full band and orchestrations.

Posted: 4/6/08 at 9:10pmI'm assuming Fiercey has the full demo and that is what he is referring to. Updated On: 2/15/14 at 09:10 PM

Posted: 4/6/08 at 9:11pmI know but I have heard it from an earlier demo recording with piano, bass, and percussion. It sounds so different!

Posted: 4/6/08 at 9:15pmYeah, the demo version of 96,000 is a lot different. The new one is waaay better. Looking forward to the cast recording :)

Posted: 4/6/08 at 9:17pmGotcha. Sorry! I would have to agree with you that 96,000 needs the full orchestration to sound right.

What has changed about "It Won't Be Long Now"? Just curious 
"If we don't live happily ever after at least we survive until the end of the week!" -Kermit the frog "I need the money... it costs a lot to look this cheap!" -Dolly P. "Oh please, Over at 'Gypsy' Patti LuPone hasn't even alienated her first daughter yet!" Mary Testa in "Xanadu" "...Like a drunk Chita Rivera!" Robin de Jesus in "In the Heights"
"B*tch, I don't know your life." -Xanadu After that if he still doesn't understand why you were uncomfortable and are now infuriated, kick him again but this time with Jazz Hands!!! -KillerTofuVideos
