Guilty Musical Pleasures

Anyone else in the closet for loving Starlight Express, Moby Dick?

two of my many guilty pleasures

My guilty musical pleasure is "Which Witch". Flawed or not, it holds a big, soft spot in my heart. Or actually, I love it to pieces!

Carrie the Musical and Dance of the Vampires.

I'm sorry.

I cant get over them.

"They don't teach that in school!"

"She's too good!"

I forgot Carrie, Loved it as well it ran too short it deserved to run, Betty Buckley was wonderful as the mother, as well as Barbara Cook, and a young Lindsay Hately ( Un sure of the spelling ) very, very good score, underated in my book

Have not got to see Dance of the Vampires, loved the music and the story, Love hearing and seeing and reading about it though, I do plan on going to Europe in 2012, hopefully it will be running somewhere.

Also liked Which Witch, as well

a Guilty TV Pleasure of mine is Dynasty the television series with Joan Collins.

Jekyll and Hyde. What can I say, I'm a sucker for melodrama--but you guys probably already figured that out.

Love Never Dies? Oh come on you know I'm joking.

I'll go for We Will Rock You. Awful story yet there's something about it...

Yeah... I'm going to have to say Love Never Dies. Musically, I rather like it a lot.

I'd even say Mamma Mia because something just doesn't sit right with me when the musical is basically songs that have already been written *Insert ALW joke right here*

Hm... it's no secret that I love Starlight Express (proud fan, just not so fond of the recent tour versions) - and Jekyll & Hyde, but for some reason it seems my friends keep forgetting that it even exsists. J/H, that is.

I think I'm gonna have to say Bernard J. Tayler's Nosferatu. I'm always going on about how sick and tired I am of vampires and vampire musicals, and in most cases this is true, but I do like this version. Judging from the CD alone it doesn't seem to be as 'grand' as some of the others, but if you like a musical that's true to the book it was based on it's worth checking out.

You guys ready?

I love the Disney Channel Musicals.

There, I said it.

I actually just saw High School Musical for the first time, it was a guilty pleasure

I saw High School Musical on stage as well. Not in the demographic it is geared towards but I enjoyed it a lot.

My current passion is Rock of Ages if one wants to call it a "guilty pleasure." I had not heard of it and nearly passed it up, but decided at the very last minute to see the tour when I discovered it had 80's tunes. As I like 80's music, I thought I would give it a try. Did not do my homework before going so was not certain what to expect. I can't say enough positive things about it. If one likes 80's music or was a teen during that time frame, they might enjoy the show. I liked it so much that I went and saw it again a few weeks later in another tour city near me, and I am making a road trip to Indianapolis in April to see it again. I describe the show this way....it's energetic, has lots of humor, an incredible cast, and you have such a good time that you want to experience it again. I haven't laughed as much since seeing The Scarlet Pimpernel for the first time in 2000.

Did someone mention Which which? I have heard only one song of it, so it doesn´t count. Enjoyed it a lot.

Of course it counts, and it is good to get it out and say we enjoy something,

On to another guilty pleasure, Beach Blanket Bingo, and How to Stuff a Wild Bikini, with Frankie and Annette, those of you who don't know, Frankie Avalon and Annette Funicello (one of the original Disney Musketeers), fun movies, dancing and singing, love, love, love these movies.

Saw Maria Kesstleman twice in Which Witch and though parts were, shall we say a bit poor lyrics-wise there were moments in that show that had me hooked. And both Maria and Vivian Parry were fantasic. Even got a sound desk recording of MK and MC from Phantom through those meetings! Seek out the video anyone who blinked during that run.

Loved Moby Dick too..
