I saw it about 2 years ago on stage, and have the film musical, but I just bought the album and have become completely re-obsessed! Is anyone else a fan?

If you are what are your fav songs? Mine would have to be Class, I Can't Do It Alone and Mr Cellophane (makes me cry)

Aww Mr Cellophane always makes me cry too!Apart from that I love the one the girls sing in the jail (can't remember its name!) and Razzle Dazzle.

I am obsessed with musicals.:lookaroundMy absolute favourite is Blood Brothers! I'm also going to see Mamma Mia the musical for my sister's hen weekend in June - woo hoo!:biggrin2:

I've seen Blood Brothers 4 times! I love it! I went to see it one time in my local theatre (but with the London cast) for my GCSE Drama coursework, EVERYONE was bawling their eyes out. 'Tell me its not trueeeeeee, say, I'm only dreeeeaming!' (Seriously, I don't know if its big in American audiences but you HAVE TO see it or listen to the words if you haven't! Its so good!)

I've loved musicals for ever. My Gran adores musicals. She wanted to be a musical star when she was little and had a brill voice but then she got tuberculosis and lost her hearing She always took me to musicals, every year for my birthday. I've seen Cats 9 times as it was her favourite. My favourite is Hairspray, although its more recent I love it!

Omg - at the end when they are both lying dead?? I was BAWLING my eyes out and was in a serious depression for about 3 days after seeing it! Plus the second time I saw it I was sitting at the very front of the stalls so was literally right up by the actors, so because the last scene is so intense it really had my heart pumping to watch. And I still jumped at the gun shot - even though I knew it was coming!

I also have the sound track which I love. My favourite song is 'shoes upon the table', the one the narrator sings. LOVE it!

Don't you know the devils got your number! I love that one!

Yeah when I saw it last time in my local theatre we were second row. The police men came round to the sides right infront of us, and I knew what was coming, and when it did all the girls SCREAMED! I jumped but I guess I knew it was coming! Even my Mum cried when she saw it with me, and my Mum DOESN'T cry... However my Nan cries at every musical so she already had tissues with her... LOL. She usually cries at 'Memories' in Cats... everytime....

BAH i wanna go see a musical! I might ask to see Les Mis for my birthday in Jan, cos its been a while since I saw that, and I think its time as I keep singing out in the middle of the street to my friends 'At the end of the day you're another day older, and thats all you can say for the life of the poor...'...

I"ve only ever seen the sheet music to blood brothers... just singing it to myself accompanied by the piano is enough to make me bawl... never mind seeing or hearing the real thing!

 

[pinksalamander]

This is a good version although the images are crap... just to listen to...

EDIT: OK so I lied... that version was crap! Can't find the one I was looking for but you can see it on Youtube.
