- More than 40 years after it was recorded, I watch Elvis' rendition of If I Can Dream on the tiny interface screen of youtube, and my reaction is the same as countless young women two generations agobaby, all hail the King.
- Okay, completely inappropriate follow-up, but I've always loved the WoW music video version of Everybody (Backstreet's Back). As somebody who ran Karazhan a gazllion times, there's some emotional security in that.
I'll even admit to really liking the original video, especially from 3:20 onwards, with the group dancing and all.
So everybody everywhere, don't be afraid don't have no fear
Gonna tell the world, make you understand
As long as there be music we'll be coming back again
There's almost something prophetic in that. (Yes, I know it's the BSB, but still.)
- I think Stars a la Les Miserables is a PERFECT song for Supernatural's Michael. (Unrelated: I was quite amused to find its Japanese version sang by one INOUE Yoshio. As one comment says, "prettiest Javert ever.")
And those who follow the path of the righteous shall have their reward
And if they fall. as Lucifer fell
The flame, the sword!
....
And so it has been, and so it is written, on the doorway to paradise
That those who falter and those who fall
Must pay the price!
- Apparently Evita is going to be brought back to Broadway in the not-too-distant future. Very excited about that.
