This morning I drove a good friend to SFO well before the buttcrack of dawn. He's flying out to Hawaii to visit his girlfriend whom he hasn't seen since she went back to school in August. We enjoyed the end of the Leonid meteor shower en route to the airport and had a nice, if still drowsy talk. After I dropped him off at the terminal and bid him farewell, I plugged in my iPod and decided I needed a musical to keep me awake on the return trip.
Having recently gone through 'Light in the Piazza', 'Legally Blonde' and 'Spamalot', I settled on 'Jekyll and Hyde'. After listening to the entirety of my compilation of various performances on my drive home, I've come to a few conclusions:
1.) Anthony Warlow is an orgasmic-voiced badass.
2.) Linda Eder is still my favorite Lucy.
3.) There used to be this video of this kid on Youtube doing an INTENSE rendition of The Confrontation-- he won some kind of crazy award at a high school broadway festival... but I can't find the link to share it! It must've been removed... D:
4.) Two songs from this musical I believe could (and perhaps should!) be picked up by the cast of Glee: In His Eyes, to be performed by Rachel and Quinn; and even though I see Rachel more fitting to role of Lucy, Puck and Quinn should sing Dangerous Game.
Man, I really wish I could find the clip of that HS kid singing the Confrontation... it was epic. Suffice it to say I was happy with my audio choice. It, and the triple-shot latte, made my one class this morning a fun affair.
On another note, I know I've been slacking on the HIMYM Music... I need to re-watch a few episodes, hunt some things down, ect. ect.... But I'm not sure if I have the heart. The most recent episodes haven't been quite up to scratch, and one of my friends spoilered me for next week's episode. Fortunately, Glee, Heroes, and Big Bang Theory continue to satisfy. Finale of Project Runway this week is something else to look forward to.
