^ I remember when I watched that it was like, "Blatant leg shot is blatant,"
I wonder if that's really all of the production they're going to sink into it: with the band onstage and little to no background. It can be very effective, but usually for the more revolutionary plays or musicals. Legally Blonde is more of the 'extravagant dance numbers with complex moving sets and many costume sets' type of musical. But this is just the showcase, after all, and the choreography looks really good.(But hopefully she'll have an actual cell phone for that line in the real show.
)
Here's the original version of the song:
So Much Better- Legally BlondeOh man, some of the lyrics are...*cough*, and I wonder if they made it through translation.
"Hey remember when we spent spring break
In the hot tub every night
We said nothing else
Could ever feel so right
Well this might!
[...]
Seeing my name in black and white
It's like making love with you all night
NO WAIT!
It feels so much better
hello much better
its oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
much better
'cause I am so much better than before"
I wonder how the "oh, oh, oh, oh" part got interpreted if they did censor it.
Some other clips of the showcase floating around had excerpts from "Blood in the Water", too.
...Now I have the urge to see if any Miki-Rizzo clips are out there. "Yo, Miki's got a bun in the oven."
