Someone here booed BK? What is this world coming to?

TCB · « **Reply #91 on:** November 18, 2003, 12:51:16 PM »

Thank you, Jane, and you are delightful. I always look forward to your posts. However, as I said the other day (or perhaps thought, and wisely didn't say) you had better not let me find out your address, or you will be missing one Titanic newspaper.

Did you say Jane that you were going to be gone for a few days? I hope you aren't going by yourself?

The word "Stew" in used in other parts of the song rather than "Soup".
"and the taste of your stew"
"all of a sudden your stew tastes different"

Does that mean I have to type out all the lyrics?

What IS the world coming to? I know not, I care not. We talked about doing Plaid Tidings for six years, but Stuart Ross could never get his act together. Since he probably produced the CD himself, I'm sure he's got his act together now. However, my estimation of Stuart Ross, which was never that high to begin with, has now dropped to zero.

I do not like prostitutes, need I say more?

Every day as you do what you do every day
You see the same faces fill the cafe
And if some of those faces have new things to say
Nothing is really different

And the sheep dot the hill where the olive tree sways
And the world spins around with the greens and the grays
And you never take time out to think of the ways
Everything might be different

And then one day, suddenly
something can happen
It might be quite special
Or something quite small
But all of a sudden, your stew tastes different
And you hear the sheep bleat in a different key
And you see with new eyes, and the faces you see
Are people you don't know at all

And the someone who touches your hair every day
Touches you now in a different way
And you may want to run or you may want to stay
forever
And since life is the sound of the sheep
And the tatse of your stew
And the way that you feel
When he touches you
Now your whole life is different
Now your whole life is new

Chaque jour est un jour....

There were sheets dotting the hills? What is this, a KKK song? When I did the show, we had no sheets in the hills, sheep yes, sheets no.

I do love the show, but I think you have to be a real musical theater person to enjoy it. We had a lot of audience members walking out of the theater shaking their heads.

And modify can make TCB's comments so so so.
At least someone reads my posts.

Tomovoz · « **Reply #98 on:** November 18, 2003, 01:31:15 PM »

No wonder I have such high hopes for "Wicked" Mr Schwartz has given us such beauty. I hope all readers have a copy of the BK produced album of his songs.

TCB · « **Reply #99 on:** November 18, 2003, 01:40:28 PM »

George! Noel! Jane! Fagin is beggin for you to post. (Noel, I don't suppose that would work as a rhyme in a song?)

One day I just might take a decent photo of the paper to send to you.

Hmmm….. Are you hoping my house will be empty or is that a joke about my state of mind? If it’s a reference to my house you are just out of luck. I always leave Echo and Bogie and if not Keith, then a pet sitter. We can’t leave our babies alone.

Joy · « **Reply #102 on:** November 18, 2003, 01:50:37 PM »

FYI, the lyrics in the somewhat new Stephen Schwartz anthology are somewhat different, as I believe Mr. Schwartz fixed 'em all up a bit.

2nd Verse goes:
And the wind changes course and the moon changes phase
Etc.

And the bridge, instead of the sheep, or sheets, bleating:
And you hear a gull cry in a different key

And near the end, instead of "And since life is the sound of the sheep":
And since life is the cry of a gull

He changed some other lyrics in other songs in the book, as well. I think "It's An Art" is different.

The Stephen Schwartz Album is one of my all-time favorite theatrical recordings, even though there are a couple in there that occasionally make my skin crawl. But I probably shouldn't mention any particulars, eh?

Thanks for the translation, Jennifer. I knew it was something like that, but I wanted to know exactly what the lyrics were for singing purposes. Otherwise the subtext is something like:

Every day is a day like every other day...something something (potato)...maybe love...the sun goes somewhere, the world makes something round, something something always the same.

It's not conducive to brilliant acting.

I see large number of people perusing and yet we have just crossed one hundred posts - most Unseemly. Everyone get off your high horses, get on your low horses and post.

TCB · « **Reply #104 on:** November 18, 2003, 01:54:35 PM »

Actually, apart from the newspaper reference, I was worried about you having to go in and clean out your father's condo alone. I know that will an extremely emotional time for you, so I was hoping that you wouldn't have to do it without having someone else there for emotional support.

However, if you are asking me to come down and pet sit and house sit, so Keith can go with you, all you have to do is ask.

Joy · « **Reply #105 on:** November 18, 2003, 01:55:31 PM »

And thanks for the lyric, Tom From OZ.

One of my best friends is from Dubbo. You know where that is?

Quote from: Craig on November 18, 2003, 10:18:27 AM

One must NEVER refer to Ms. Julianna A. Hansen as a shameless hussy. That is a very ugly term which we cannot tolerate here at HHW...

And oh dear reader Emily... I read yesterday you were engaged and STILL seeking my hand. That might be more shameless hussieness

Craig m'boy, after you abandoned all of us (myself included) in chat for an evening with the all too adorable Miss Juliana I felt it would be necessary to take serious action.

I want a green card. I have no skills that your country feels are useful. Therefore I must marry an American. TCB graciously accepted my proposal of marriage.

A marriage of convenience you might say? Yes to begin with. But TCB has grown on me as husband material. I am a woman torn.

I must go sulk off in the corner and consider my prospects with each of you.

BTW Julianna if you read the posts you are not a shameless hussy in the least. Your potential father in law may think so, but I do not!

(Brock. Senior is surely kidding of course!) That will, of course, not stop me from bitch slapping you from here to eternity over callously stealing Craig away from me and Maya and Laura II and Andrea and Jason (

)

I challenge you to a duel! Pistols or Pies... it's your choice as the defender!

Juliana was in chat last night? That's it, I am walking from Oliver. I can't let theater get in the way of my meeting such delightful guests.

BTW (By The Way in internet lingo) Emily, how drunk was I when I proposed?

Noel · « **Reply #111 on:** November 18, 2003, 02:04:04 PM »

If you think Fagin could possibly rhyme with "beggin'" I have one word for the way you're pronouncing the first syllable to Dickens' creation, and that word is

feh

I thought Marc Shaiman did Mr. Holland's Opus. Am I wrong?

You are funny and sweet. All that is left at my father’s is for the thrift shop. What they don’t want I will have to pay to be hauled away. Then I will be getting estimates for the work that needs to be done before putting it on the market. I think this will be more boring than emotional. I hope so anyway. I have my brother there for emotional support.

Very much so.

Mr. Shaiman was not associated in any way with that film.

Here I am. I have HHW up at work and I lurk at work. I post when I have a moment, but they're few and far between...hence the many late night posts.

I have some smilie sites bookmarked, so I'll check when I get the chance.
