C'est Réalité

My love for Rent has been re-ignited. Since I laid my hands on the DVD (biggest thanks to my doll of a cousin, Drea for giving it to me! *muack*) I've only watched the movie twice in the past 24 hours. And the only thing I've been listening to since that first viewing is - you guessed it - the original Broadway cast recording. I'm gonna be a certified Renthead if I keep this up.

I love musicals. Everyone's always singing their hearts out, and even if the issues are grim and people are dying, the fact that they can break out in song and dance is just too awesome. I really do honestly think that the world would be a much better place if it was like a musical. For one, I can totally picture myself singing in the midst of a heated argument. All the tension would immediately disappear, cos seriously, how can anyone remain pissed when there's singing? Everything can be solved right after the bridge has been sung and then we can "fade out".

Sometimes, just sometimes, a tiny little part of me wishes that real life was a little more like the reel world. Well, at least the singing aspect of it.

I'm feeling: Chirpy
