this made me smile, don't look if you can't take a wicked related joke

"Defying Subtlety"

"Kristin: (spoken) Idina, why couldn't you have tried
singing softly for once, instead of shrieking like a
belting banshee?

I hope you're happy,
I hope you're happy now,
I hope you're happy how
You make my every pore hurt
When you shriek out with Norbert

Idina:

I hope you're happy,
I hope you're happy too,
I hope you're proud how
You chirruped and you grinned a
Storm up as Galinda.

So though I can't imagine how,
I hope you're happy right now--

Kristin: (spoken) Idina, listen to me...just learn
some proper vocal techniques!

You can still not grow some polyps;
Save your voice, the show's a hit.
You can still learn how to sing

Idina: (spoken) I know...

But I don't want to,
I can't want to sound legit.

Nothing has changed about me,
Something my fans all know--
I can't make it sound
Like I'm in a thought-provoking show.
Too late for Stanislavsky,
Too late for an acting class.
It's time to trust my instincts,
And sing like I have gas!

It's time to try
Defying subtlety
I think I'll try
Defying subtlety
And you can't tone me down.

Kristin:

Can't I make you understand
You're having delusions of Tonys?

Idina:

I'm through with playing lesbos
In a downtown studio.
Some roles I cannot do
But Elphie's not just a nympho
Like in some Lippa Party
Or a princess with lots of shoes
Well, playing Amneris
Just brought me lots of boos.

I'd sooner buy
Defying subtlety
Kiss fun goodbye
I'm defying subtlety
And you can't tone me down.

(spoken) Kristin, come with me--think of what we could
do--together!

Unlimited
Our credit cards unlimited
Together we'll be the loudest team
There's ever been, Kristin--
With makeup at Sephora,
My own jewel-studded Torah

Both:

For a belter stretching her voice thin.

Just you and I
Defying subtlety
With you and I
Defying subtlety

Idina:

They'll never tone us down
(Spoken) Well...are you joining me?

Kristin:

I hope you're happy
Since you have chosen this.

Idina: (Spoken) You too.

Though my voice brings no bliss.

Both:

I really hope you (I) might miss
Getting laryngitis!
I hope you're (I'm) happy with your (my) belt,
That you're (I'm) so happy, you (I) melt

Idina:

So if you care to find me,
Look to the Gershwin's stage
As Steve Schwartz told me lately,
"Everyone deserves the chance to rage
Around like they have rabies
And spit at the first row."
So watch me mount my broomstick,
Take a breath and blow!

Tell them how I
Am defying subtlety
As if I'm high,
Defying subtlety;
Watch me belt
Until you frown!
And nobody in NYC,
No critic-troll from ATC,
Is ever gonna tone me down!

Kristin:

I hope you're happy...

Critics:

(spoken) Look at her, she's over-emoting, get her!

Idina:

Tone me down!

ATC trolls:

No one mourns Idina, so we've got to tone her

Idina:

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

Critics and Trolls:

DOWN!"


Idina: Somehow I got myself to the stage, came out at the end of the show, and I had some kind of closure.
Some guy: You looked great!
Idina: Thanks...I WAS SO HIGH! 8/21/05

I'm speechless and my sides hurt from laughing so hard.
"Noah, someday we'll talk again. But there's things we'll never say. That sorrow deep inside you. It inside me, too. And it never go away. You be okay. You'll learn how to lose things..."

Matt, I was reading that and the whole time I was thinking to myself Matt MUST read these lyrics

I guess someone made it up...it was in my friend's livejournal. I don't think it was FBB, I think FBB did Defying Chenoweth...

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
The Q~tips and the Shizkids should be friends
Yes, the Q~tips and the Shizkids should be friends
One show has a girl in green
The other has a hot sex scene
But that's no reason why they can't be friends
Oh, the Q~tips and the Shizkids should be friends
Yes, the Q~tips and the Shizkids should be friends
Both shows have some Godspellies
Both of them are understudies
So there's no reason why they can't be friends
Oh, the Q~tips and the Shizkids should be friends
Yes, the Q~tips and the Shizkids should be friends
All boys want Idina for a date
All girls wish Johnny T was straight
But that's no reason why they can't be friends
Oh, the Q~tips and the Shizkids should be friends
Yes, the Q~tips and the Shizkids should be friends
Both shows got three Tonies, true
Kristin and Rod both hit on Hugh
So there's no reason why..We... Can't...Be...Friends!!!
