Im Frank and im performing tonight...... nervous

[MsCcHart]

I just got cast as Annie at my school, and this is probably one of my favorite songs!! :)

[damone77]

This song was specifically written for Merman for the revival of "Annie". I think that this song is another of example of how Irving Berlin was able to write these two melody line songs. The other songs that come to mind are: Simple melody and You're just in love. Ty for the post. What fun!

[goldennight]

I saw them in this when they came through my town. So wonderful <3

[sdrah281109]

Do you have an old fashion wedding by Neil Patrick Harris and James Marsden at Trevor Project?. Thank you.

[AnAmsterdamAdmiral]

Irving Berlin for the win.

[makefunnyfacesbitch]

Love it! Too funny.

[drflor71]

I live in San Antonio, TX, and the bride & groom had a karaoke after-party after their reception. They sang this to each other. It re-affirmed my belief in marriage!!!

[rafflesia]

AMAZING song and performance!!!! Bernadette is my IDOL. =X

I adore the fabulous Ethel Merman's Annie too.

[ForCarolToEnjoy]

This was such a great musical 

[dandy7989]

Love it

[firespirit19]

we sang this at my school too. it was definitely one of the better songs they made us sing.

[Seelenkristall]

Great. :-)

[iloveit201]

I was frank butler. Talk about tough!

[crazydivaxox]

We're doing this at our school this year--! I am pretty excited for auditions :)

[zoey386]

I love Annie get your Gun I hope to be Annie some day

[SassyconQueso]

Even though Frank Butler is possibly the most detestable leading man ever (I'll vow to love you forever, you'll vow to love, honor, and obey), this remains one of my favorite musicals of all time. The music is just so brilliant.

[broadwayloverny10]

URGH!! Show down between Patti and Bernadette. OY! Both my favorites but who was best? oy I DON'T KNOW!!!

[aEagleQT77]

[RADEAR2]

So amazing.

I saw the show at the Marquis.

It was amazing.

Bring Etelel and Bernies voices to life.

[Feareous]

Who's Etelel??? lol

[valleygirl456]

I love this song so much... last year we did this for school and all the girl's would sing Annie's part backstage

[Feareous]

It really is amazing, isn't it!!! I love when they sing at the same time, just brilliant!!!

Really you did it at school??? Do you know how much your school paid in royalties??? I am trying to convince my school to do it also...

[eyeheartchiodos]

haha

my school is doin it right now :D

i am in it

[Feareous]

Awesome!!!

What role do you have???

[ctlovesyewh]

@Feareous

ines doing it in our play "for the love of broadway" in may :p

[monkeysrus310]

We did this this year and the girls all sang along backstage too!

[eastxwinds]

Lord, I hate Bernadette Peters.

[Feareous]

Why???

[eastxwinds]

Because she sucks.

[Feareous]

Well, can you tell me why??? That is your opinion and I respect it, but I was just wondering??? ^^

[eastxwinds]

Her voice is annoying and obnoxious, she's smarmy, she's ugly. Generally: she sucks.

[Feareous]

I have to agree with you, her voice is a little annoying at times, but her singing is remarkable. As for the rest, I am sorry you feel that way.

[GoodbyeToBlueberyPie]

God what is Peters' obsession with reviving Merman's classics and flat-out ruining them. At least she's not as bad in "Annie" as she was "Gypsy." She's just way too whiny here for Annie. Merman was th perfect Annie, hell the role was WRITTEN FOR HER AFTER ALL.

[Feareous]

Hehehe, I respect your opinions, but personally I think Bernadette did much better. I do agree that Ethel Merman's vocals fit much better into the role, but I think Peters really brought out the character!!!

Thanks for you feedback!!! 8-)

[FluffyCupCake789]

one of the best musicals ever invented!

[Feareous]

Hehehe, I agree!!! Thanks. Did you ever see it???

[FluffyCupCake789]

I never did, but I have both the original cast soundtrack, and this cast and i personally like Bernadette Peters a lot more than Ethel Merman. I was also in a community theater production a few years ago. I was just in the chorus but it was still a lot of fun!

[Feareous]

Hahaha, I know what you mean. Ethel Merman may be a classic musical theatre icon, but Bernadette Peters is a goddess!!! She is so much better than Ethel Merman's bellowing!!! ^^

That must have been fun!!! I helped out with a theatre who worked on this, but I merely worked backstage, I can't sing... 8-)

[tatyrules12]

well not everybody can because without crew the production would be crazy and people could get hurt and stuff and crew is fun anyway they rock

[Feareous]

True, thank you, not that many people even consider the Crew!!!

[Feareous]

Yea!!!, 1000 views!!!

[flowersandemos]

what's the song about "what comes naturally?"

I saw these actual actors in new york in 1999

:)

[Feareous]

The Song is called "Doin' What Comes Natur'lly"

I actually have a video of it.

What was it like??? Did you get their autographs!?!?! ^^

[flowersandemos]

Sweet, thanks. I found it right after I commented lol

it was fantastic..I was only about 8 years old but i remember it very well. Sadly, i didn't get their autographs.

:(

[Feareous]

Ah, I'm so sorry to hear that, but I guess it still must have been amazing!!!

Your welcome!!!

[mophead2k2]

[Blumenmaedchen91]
