My name is Chita and not Rita...


Sorry, Forbidden Broadway flashback...:p

Ok...here's a better one:

"It's too high....this song's too high, bring it down, bring it down...."

Then there's my favorite Forbidden Broadway number:

I'll learn a new song Tomorrow,
But until Tomorrow then Tomorrow will have to do. . . .
Tomorrow, Tomorrow is my favorite showtune,
I sing three times a day.
Tomorrow, Tomorrow is my favorite showtune,
I sing it 4,367 times a year.
Redundant, redundant, this song is redundant.
I'll sing it until . . I . . . die . . . !


Seriously, we must stop.

Oh, since you posted that one I have to add this one:

I'm 30 years old Tomorrow,
And I haven't had a role
Since I played Annie
When I was 10.

ETA: Why do I feel like us music geeks are getting blank stares from the rest of GC??;)

hhmmm....maybe they're not all bad

I enjoyed both of those... More please?

AlphaFrog 07-25-2006 02:35 PM

Since you asked:

So hoist me up in a harness
And point me to the sky,
In all the big shows lately,
All the leading ladies have to fly!

MysticCat 07-25-2006 03:12 PM

Okay, one more.

(to the tune of "My Heart Belongs to Daddy"):

When I was young,
I used to be
a famous star like any other.
But now my son's a bigger one
'cause I'm . . . Larry Hagman's mother.

But she shouldn't have even played Christine. She cannot sing. Her parts in Phantom were manipulated so much. Even with the manipulation they had to lower many of her parts a whole octave at times.

Drolefille 07-25-2006 03:39 PM

Awesome for all of those.. more please :)

The very first part of "The Phantom of the Opera" when she sings "In sleep he saaang to me" I swear the word "sang" has more drawl on it then a country music singer...drives me CRAZY!!!

And when she sings "Father once spoke of an angel" her "angel" sounds like "a-njul" when she should have been closer to "an-gel" (like gel pens).

Emmy Rossum's deer caught in the headlight acting bothers me. She should play one of the students that gets shot at the barricade. Before she gets show, they should show her deer caight in the headlight act.

I want a C-O-O-L R-I-D-E-R.
