When will they make a version of Poulenc’s Banalités for high voice? Why do mezzos and baritones have the best French rep?

YO DO NOT COMPLAIN ABOUT NOT HAVING ENOUGH REP. mezzos have it  hard enough.

also i’m a little drunk so maybe don’t listen to me. yes, i’m aware it’s 11AM. finals are hard, okay?

I wish I had friends. I wish I had someone to talk too. I wish I could be happy. I wish I wasn’t alone. I wish I wasn’t hopeless. I wish I was in love. I wish I could be different.

I love you, and you can always talk to me!

Merrily, merrily practicing dreams: aliveandfullofjoy: anovertoneofromance: can anyone explain to me why...

aliveandfullofjoy:

anovertoneofromance:

can anyone explain to me why people like phantom of the opera?

I’ve thought long and hard about this one, and I’ve come to a conclusion. 

Obviously the romance plays a big part in it, but I think the big draw is the music. Ignore the general consensus from the theatre community, and most people think Phantom is a super prestigious thing, right? It’s the longest-running musical, it’s made all this money, it won some Tonys. But the music is why it sticks around. Let’s be real, most Broadway audiences aren’t exactly music aficionados. Like, they can know what they like and lots can have good taste, but very few people will actively recognize Phantom’s score for the flash-fried Puccini that it is. So your average people come in to see the show, and they hear this glorious, sweeping, stringy, romantic music that is just pseudo-classy enough to make them feel like they’ve done themselves an artistic good. It’s as if the music congratulates the audience for listening to it. 

And then it makes people cry, so that’s a big part too. 

Just my two cents.

oh wow these are good words

IMPORTANT POST IS IMPORTANT. ALW is the Anti-Christ for writing shit like this.

And this isn’t even the last we’re going to hear about “happy plants.” 

I love how climate change deniers suddenly think they’re experts on plant health.

Can people who don’t know about science stop running their goddamn mouths, please?
