i did this play in hong kong 3 years ago, and a little girl aged six sang this. she was so amazing, i woulden't be surpriseed if i got her album for christmas!!!
This is so great! We are making a dancing show this saturday and a friend of mine is going to sing Memory live and i used this instrumental. Thank you so much!
Beautiful. And thanks for lowering it a bit -- I always ask the karaoke dj to do that when I get to sing this song (I don't have the coloratura soprano voice needed to sing it in the original key.)
@josepacio1 Hey bud, you quoted on your messaged that you have a version of memory for man...Would you kindly send me the link.I love this music. THANKS
Yes, this seemed too fast, and it didn't take into account those pauses often taken, I mean drawn out lines... It has been years since I've studied any musical terminology.
this is the perfect key for me eventhough im a girl its not to low thanks for this kareoke butits quite fast this song not enough time to breve but owell xx :)
Thank you for posting! I first sang this when I was in the 3rd grade for a talent show and I haven't touched it since now and I'm 16, lol. Thanks for posting I wasn't sure if I could still do it lol. :D
@KandiKane791 Jesus, I know! This song definitely has to be performed by someone with a fairly wide range...the higher notes aren't the problem in this case lol!
@KandiKane791 hahah, too low. I love the vocal range, it's right in my comfort zone. :) ... but then again, I must take in account that I'm the only girl in my choir who can sing with the basses and still be a soprano.
@Browngoat17 same here! i once sang S1 and then B2 in the same show. The director and I made a bet that I couldn't hit a Db5 and a C3 and when I did I won 20 bucks and he had me sing both parts in different songs lol. look up altos lament. you'll love it!
The older woman/cat feels that her life is over because she is no longer young and beautiful. Towards the end of the song she realizes she still has pourpose and that she doesn't need to rely of the memories of her past.
Cats is my alltime favorite broadway! We just saw it recently at the Chrysler hall. A lot of flashing lights and strobe lights. Rum-Tum-Tugger wasnt that good though. I still enjoyed it.
One thing I always thinks of while seing casts doing promos for Cats is that at thoose times all the other cats is so friendly at griz, while in the show its not untill the very end they even see at her so I am always woundering how that conspond with the storyline in the show... Ill guess they have forgiven her on thoose ocations... :) Johan
first time i seen Cats i cried at thise bit and later when we went back stage to talk to the cast i threw my arms around Grizabella giving a death grip hug i felt so sorry for her i was like 10
I feel so stupid, I listened to my DVD and typed them up as I listened, now it seems pretty pointless... anyway, this is 1 of my 2 favorite songs in Cats, and is really great! but it's very sad too....
a lyric question, some people say "the streetlamp flutters," while others say "the streetlamp gutters," so now my curiousity sparked, do you know the right version?
I love this version. Have it on CD (Orlando Pops Orchestra I think)...though at one point I think it's supposed to go through the "Sunlight through the trees in summer" instead of the "burnt out ends"...love it though!
the added duet is part of the reprise, it may be confusing for people who haven't seen it live, but in the program it is called "Memory reprise" ( or at least it was when I saw it"
Damn. I sang this perfectly live. But when I started to record I have no idea why it sucks. i think i try to imitate too much when I record. :S But I love this. This is the best instrumental ever ever! :D wee!
I love this song, but I struggle with the low notes. I wouldn't mind seeing Cats, I've heard that it was the most popular brordway musical until Phantom of the Opera (which is my favourite), but Cats sounds good.
is a very great song, always when i lisent this song make me cry, im study theather in mexico, and comedy musical, and i like much, very great song. adrian mexico
okay i am so tired of explaining this to people but I DIDN'T WRITE THAT MY SISTER DID SHE DOESN'T UNDERSTAND GOOD MUSICALS! she's seen this musical herself she just trying to be funny SORRY!!!!
i am sooo sorry my sister wrote that she obviously does not appreciate musicals like cats. but please believe that me myself was not the one to write that but by sister was. SORRY!!!!!!
