Aida - How I Know You and My Strongest Suit

[bewaretheghoul]

We're doing Aida for our 2012 high school musical........Strongest Suit makes me believe that Elton John had a grudge against bassists. :|

I'm seriously convinced he sat down every night for a week and brainstormed everything and anything that would kill a bassist. He'd go, "Oh, hey, THIS would kill them." and then he'd put it on a different string, same fingerings, and repeat. Then he decided to take away the music, and just put the chord notes. Then he'd be like "TAKE THIS, BASSES!"

my school's doing this! how i know you and the god's love nubia are my favorites! our mereb sings it so well!

[BradMeekins]

I am a drummer and 2 years after I graduated high school I was asked to play drums for the high school play. I was hesitant at first, musicals not being my thing, but it was honestly an amazing time. Anyway, My Strongest Suit was one of my favorite songs to play. Finding this made me miss that time really bad.

[EliseIsntPerfect]

I'm singing My strongest suit for the musical. (:

[SnowingWolfGirl]

I think these two songs are some of my favorite on the album.

[raspberrrie]

I LOVE this song...



[HUsupersoldier]

doing this musical for my school. tried out for radames and mereb but got a preacher >:(. the only reason why i didnt get it was because the one playing radames is a senior. he was at the last try out day! yes i missed the first day but i had to work he didnt even have an excuse.......douchbag

[joeyisawesome321]

not to be racist, but i think an african-american women would be better for this song

[redheadmeg0602]

@joeyisawesome321 well then it's a good thing the woman singing, heather headley, is african american...
