I played Schlomo in our performance and I loved this song! As a baritone it was right in my range but I completely messed up miming playing the piano...
Carmen is amazing!! How low does Schlomo go!!!! This is meant to be the showstopper! OK singing, mediocre acting. Carmen's costume needs to be more 80's....she's wearing character shoes!! Apart from that Carmen was well good!!!
This isn't the show stopper. This song is put in to explain why the end song (the actual show stopper) is so important, and show the love that's forming between Carmen and Schlomo. Plus character shoes are classic. And maybe they didn't want Carmen's outfit to be overly 80's.
Yes I can defo understand what your saying and where your coming from. Its just that in productions all over the world, this number has simply been a showstopper (not really 'the' showstopper) because of the chemistry between them and that it has been sung in a certain way. Listen to this track on the 1999 American Tour CD and you will see why its a showstopper.
I have listened to the 1999 American Tour Version of this. It's the exact same thing. They're both overly good but it isn't a show stopper and neither is the professional one. Yes Schlomo at the end freaks out with the whole YEAH but it's still not a show stopper every script is the same and every script has it as not a big scene... not a big scene at all it's the whole thing is about 9 lines and a song
I play Schlomo in this scene and I just wanted to add that basses are sexier than tenors and as such I thought Schlomo would be better shown as a bass.
Wow! I never thought I would see a comment from the singer himself! Yes indeed basses have sexier voices. But I've never thought of considering Schlomo as a sexy character.
Are you still performing? or was this the last time you've participated in a theater production?
can someone pleaasseeee give me the chordsss
