Oh, see, I didn't like that song, so I'm firmly in the OC camp.
Buffy and Angel 1: BUFFYNANGLE4EVA!!!!!1!
Is it better the second time around? Or the third? Or tenth? This is the place to come when you have a burning desire to talk about an old episode that was just re-run.
Really? I adored it.
I will get Sunday in the Park with George in my head at odd moments. All of a sudden I'll be all "There are worse things than posing for a picture being painted by your lover on an island in the river on a Sundaaay...".
I wonder how much more room my brain would have if it wasn't all full of Sondheim lyrics.
You might have more room in your brain, but your life would be meaningless.
And less rhyme-y.
Heh. So true. Isn't it nice to know a lot? (And a little bit not.)
During my (short) break from smoking last week, I got in the car thinking "How in hell am I not going to smoke in the car?". Wesley, my iPod, brought up the twelve minute opening to Into the Woods. It was like a challenge. Got me all the way to work.
Life's more painless
For the brainless.
Ack! Firstly, it's "It's a LOVELY Day for a Murder", and it's not from Assassins, though I always think of it as such. It's actually from and Rodgers and Hart musical called Higher and Higher.
Dana, it completely frelled the flow of the end of the show for me, straight from "Hail to the Chief" into "Everybody's Got the Right". It doesn't really work thematically for me, either. The show's not about The People. It's about these people, sitting on the outside, and trying to get a piece of their version of the dream.
(Chi, I've been bouncing between songs from that show all month, but, not Sondheim.)

I do agree with that. I missed the transition. But it seems like such a classic Sondheim song to me. It's "Someone in a Tree". It's any song where Sondheim has ever dealt with multiple viewpoints on an issue.
