As a bit of a theatre queen, I had seen mention of this show, but didn’t really know anything about it. So I never bothered to listen to any of the songs from this show.
Then today, I was doing a ‘try not to sing…” challenge, that had songs from 29 different musicals – and you had to avoid singing along (I failed miserably, btw)… then this song came on. BAM! powerful.
The tune is very reminiscent of “Flashlight”…. but the lyrics are incredibly powerful.
Then you go and add a bunch of fans from around the world singing it…. some of them are incredibly powerful. watch the face on the first guy who starts to sing – he brought a tear to my eye.
