Question Posted Saturday November 18 2006, 2:13 pm





Hey, I heard you did the musical ANYTHING GOES a while back, which is why I was wondering if you could answer my question about it.

I’m 14 and am considering doing the title song for the 8th grade talent show later on this year.

I need to know what kind of mood the song is: Happy? Sad? What kind of expression
should the actor/singer give to the lyrics? I’ve never seen the show, so I can’t really know.

And also, there’s a 45-second overture thingy in the middle of the song where the person is supposed to be tap dancing. I can’t tap dance for my life. What else could I do during the overture? Standing still would be awkward and out of character.


And lastly….I need to know where I can find more PG-rated lyrics. I love the lyrics as they are, but seriously, this is not going to make it through:

“If saying your prayers, you like
If old hymns you like
If bare limbs you like
Or me undressed you like
When nobody will oppose”

I heard that in the movie version with Ethel Merman they altered the lyrics, but that movie is completely inaccessible.

I LOVE ANYTHING GOES!
ok sooo its a pretty upbeat song... she's a "revivalist" reno is kind of preaching... she's also very sexy (night club dancer).
maybe you could edit it and not have the overture in the middle?
i had to learn to tap dance for it and it actually wasn't toooo bad. you could just dance to it if you really want.
you could change the lyrics when you try out and then sing them... i mean if you sing them kinda like a night club singer, chances are the audience wont pick them up unless you act it out, know whati mean? i don't think you can find "pg lyrics" but you could make them up to fit. let me know if you need more info! <3
