When I saw RENT in May, the Mimi whent flat A LOT in OUT TONIGHT. But I guess thats better than the one thats in Bway right now, cus that girl went SOOOO FREEKEN low on LIGHT MY CANDLE!!!! It made me SOOOOO FREEKEN MAD!!! But the one on the tour was AWSOME dispite her going flat sometimes.
DEFYING GRAVITY is SOOOO easy to go flat on! My friend goes flat a lot when she sings it. But sometimes its great! I love her! Shes so awsome!

"Were You Not To KoKo Plighted" - This is a bitch of a song to sing trying to keep in pitch. It has a whole heap of sharps and flats injected, especially in the first 20 bars, so one must try very hard to maintain pitch.
This song can be a trainwreck for an otherwise good Nanki-Poo

OK...but...why would you want to sing that song the way it was written? That's pretty...no...that's intensely lame, isn't it?
The JCS score is very challenging to sing for ANYONE...
My pick for easy song to go flat on is UPTOWN GIRL.

"Over the Moon" from Rent.
There's a couple of notes in there that are really quite ridiculous.

Posted: 12/24/04 at 11:54amI sung it the way it was written, because at 17, I didn't want to scream and ruin my vocal chords. Besides, i like the "written" version better than the "screaming" version. The latter is what makes me dislike the song itn its entirety (unless it's sung by Amy Ray from the Indigo Girls : JCS: A Ressurection - the best JCS recording of all time)
