crisis: “I always laugh though during the start of the second dance set when I start singing a song in my head about a traveler from Australia.”
Yeah, my parents say that too.
The hysterical part is that that song was apparently copied from a DIFFERENT song.
oomis: I LOVE Bring Him Home- though I just love Les Mis in general, especially Empty Chairs at Empty Tables. So sad…
I love Les Mis (as mentioned above- though not all of it), Wicked (though some songs are better than others), and Shlomo Carlebach (though not in that order). Most of all, though, I like orchestral music, without the vocals taking away from the actual music. As a (would-be) musician, I like to savor the instrumental aspects. I love Mozart (sounds stereotypical, but there is something there that I love that I haven’t found anywhere else), but really I love any orchestral music, even covers of popular songs (it can be surprisingly cool to hear that insipid song from the mall played on the violin). And oomis, The Piano Guys on YouTube has this amazing piano and cello cover of Bring Him Home for after sefirah :). It’s absolutely gorgeous.
