Oh no, not opera! nossy Send a noteboard - 01/02/2010 10:34:41 AM
1. Do you like musicals? Why (not)?

I have really enjoyed those I've seen. Most were fun, and the music really got into my head (in a good way). Some others were darkly dramatic and evoked emotion. I cried when the chandelier fell (Phantom) for pete's sake!

2. Do you like opera? Why (not)?

I enjoyed the only one I've ever seen. Er, possibly mostly because my friend was in it. I have a feeling I would love real opera, but I've never gone to see one.

3. What's your favorite musical?

I'm not putting it, it's too embarrassing. I'll go with Les Mis instead.

4. What elevates it above the rest?

Les Mis is ... awesome.

5. What's your favorite opera?

N/A

6. What elevates it above the rest?

BONUS POINTS: Do you or have you ever teared up while watching Les Misérables? If not, how does it feel to lack a soul?

Pft, a better question would be whether I managed to keep any tears inside my head.

Short survey. On musicals. And what the hell, why not opera too. Ghavrel - 31/01/2010 06:24:44 AM 1099 Views
I suppose I will be narcissistic and respond to my own survey. Ghavrel - 31/01/2010 06:29:44 AM 781 Views
Heh. I figured "Little People" would get your tears flowing. LiterateDog - 31/01/2010 06:43:06 AM 686 Views
Yes, but for entirely different reasons. I confess to heartless relief when the child died. *NM* Ghavrel - 31/01/2010 06:49:31 AM 421 Views
Hehe, I was in Les Mis. I played that kid. Great Lord of Chaos - 31/01/2010 06:54:30 PM 764 Views
I think "because of" your role would be more accurate. *NM* Ghavrel - 31/01/2010 07:42:43 PM 401 Views

I hate when I switch quoting styles that it deletes my already-typed title. LiterateDog - 31/01/2010 06:39:37 AM 786 Views
Probably my most frequent thought while on this site. Ghavrel - 31/01/2010 06:47:05 AM 758 Views

Yeah. I've given Deb permission to sing this one for you... Sports_Gambler - 01/02/2010 01:28:47 AM 672 Views

i agree with you, and it's not the style of music LadyLorraine - 31/01/2010 09:54:40 PM 600 Views
Piccolos are nasty. End of story. Their only function is that of ornamentation. *NM* Amys - 31/01/2010 10:34:33 PM 402 Views

How is it that you are picky about musicals?! Ghavrel - 31/01/2010 10:13:56 PM 786 Views
Because of the singing, I guess? ironclad - 31/01/2010 10:26:10 PM 774 Views

see, my favorite Phantom is actually the movie (with Emmy Rossum and Gerard Butler) LadyLorraine - 31/01/2010 10:57:40 PM 769 Views
The best Phantom is what some guy did on Youtube... Legolas - 31/01/2010 11:25:50 PM 600 Views
Ugh. I heard about three clips from the movie and I will definitely not see it. Cockatiel of Doom - 01/02/2010 01:25:36 AM 790 Views

I was hoping you'd pick Grease 2 as your favorite musical. *NM* TaskmasterJack - 01/02/2010 04:39:03 PM 375 Views
Well I was only counting musicals I've seen on stage. Sareitha Sedai - 01/02/2010 04:46:05 PM 775 Views

musicals are OK random thoughts - 01/02/2010 07:43:38 PM 576 Views
Most musicals are trite, saccharine drivel for uncultured tourists from the Midwest and South. Tom - 02/02/2010 05:38:41 PM 834 Views
