The clips are up! Just follow the link! Is it just me or do the songs seem to drag just the slightest bit? I hope they picked up the pace a little bit!

Hey, AB, if my flesh HADN'T crawled again when I listened to the clip, I would have mentioned that. I'm not the broken record, Norbert is.
I listened to Joel's song too, and even though I saw the show, I STILL have no idea what that song is, when he sang it in the show, or what it sounded like (given that FYE neglected to put the hooks of any song besides "Popular" online, that's no surprise). I guess Joel is STILL Mr. Cellophane.

Posted: 12/13/03 at 2:24pmIs it just me or do they seem slow? Like the music just didn't have as quick a tempo as other clips I've heard!

Posted: 12/13/03 at 2:36pmWhy does it say Carol and Shelly for some of the clips? Are understudies singing those songs are something?

The tempo is defintley slower. Idina sounds older. She's not the powerhouse she is in some of the other clips I've heard. Especially when she belts "Fiyero!" in No Good Deed. It's sort of weak. And Kristin sounds different. I don't know what, just different.
Dancing Through Life? This is the song that is supposed to be better than "Which Way's the Party?". Wow, that's just, wow.
Bill Finn rocks. Woot.

I think the FYE site is dragging them, producing the musak pace. There's a warble/wave thing happening on my laptop, even when I use my headphones. I'm with Namo about the bizarre decision to avoid the hooks. Why not let us hear Idina blast away on Defying Gravity or Wizard and I? It's as if some technician just shoved any 30 seconds on there at random. (Why give us Fiyero talking about the Ozdust ballroom?!) I'm in the minority, but I think the album overall sounds promising. The beefed up strings (added for the recording), etc make the orchestra sound full and lush; it helps the cause here.
(OT: Hope Norbert recovers soon. I can't stop giggling when I read "ailing Butz," nor can people at Playbill and other sites who were back in Jr. High again when they wrote that headline.)

Posted: 12/13/03 at 3:15pmCarole and Shelley is one name...Carole Shelley. She is the woman playing Madame Morrible. Simple as that.
