Okay, so Debi and I are having this fun discussion about musicals and singing and roles and whatnot, so I thought I'd open it up here:

If you sing (or even if you don't, we're fantasizing here so it's all fine), what musical roles would you like, and why? I'll go first:

Elphaba from Wicked: "Defying Gravity", "Loathing", "For Good", "No Good Deed", "I'm Not That Girl"-- need I go on? :-)

Lucy from Jekyll and Hyde: I want so badly to stand on stage and perform "In His Eyes". So badly.

Dulcinea from Man of La Mancha: I just adore her character so much. And the finale still gives me goosebumps.

Mimi from RENT: As if the songs weren't fun enough, I'd do it just for the opportunity to learn how to dance like that. Heh.

Your turn. :-)

So I finally bought the Wicked soundtrack and thought I'd come back and revisit this discussion. :D

I'm gonna have to say that we're gonna have to argue over the part of Elphaba. Well, and over Ewan McGregor for that matter. :D

But yeah, you were right. "As Long As You're Mine" is amazing. So is "Defying Gravity". Man. I also finally replaced my broken Moulin Rouge cd, so between the two of them it finally pushed on me enough and I've put in a request for info from a local vocal trainer. Hee.

Oh, that's great! :-)

And yeah, "As Long As You're Mine" and "Defying Gravity" are my two favorite songs from that soundtrack. With "What is this Feeling?" completing the top three. *S*
