"Will I lose my dignity, will some care? Will I wake tomorrow from this nightmare?" Those two sentences.. wow. "Will I" has to be my favorite song from RENT.
Rent is such a heartbreaking and a heartmaking story about a group of poor people in New York that well are all "different". It just proves that there is hope for all of us.
My favorite part of "Will I" is the fact that Benny is a part of it. Benny, who has a supposedly great life, with his rich wife. It really adds to the beauty of the whole thing
I especially like the beginning where Angel is acting like a little school girl (I know he is a guy) and he is like, "So we're alone..." It adds such a character development to Angel that is not there is the movie.
Will I is by far my favorite song in the show. It just makes me want to cry. The first time i saw RENT was at a community theatre production (amazing show btw) and I teared up hardcore during this song.
Love how Angel almost loses her wig! She is my idol! And I love how Collins gets nervous when Angel said, "Alone at last!" "I'll Cover You" is such a deep and beautiful song! I was singing it while I was fishing leaves out of our 14' in diameter pool, and I turned around and the neighbor looked at me like: O.o I was mortified!!! I get stage fright when I sing in front of people, but once I realized he was watching, I turned red as a radish and ran into the house! So embarrassing!!!!!!!!!! OMG!!!
It would be good for you to just stand in the middle of the sidewalk and sing at the top of your lungs. That would help you get over your stage fright and it would probably be a lot of fun. Have someone film it and put it on you tube.
I've actually done that before! It was really fun, and most of the people were like: :D, but there were a few that were like: O.o, but they may have been because I was singing in front of their houses.
Because in the beginning of the show, Mark mentions that Roger was a rockstar but the AIDS and the death of his girlfriend April has had an effect on him. Ever since then He always says'"I'm writing One Great song..before I..." Basically Roger knows he going to die of AIDS and he wants to write that one great song. Which happens to be the foundation to "Your Eyes"...In which he sings to Mimi when she's about to die...before Finale B and after Finale A. I hope this helps..=)
I'm guessing you're referring to Wilson Jermaine-Heredia, but I still wish I could have seen Wilson Cruz (Ricky from My So-Called Life) as Angel--would have been amazing, I think. =)
what is wrong with you people. Nobody is better than Wilson and others have come close but he sure isn't the best one after Wilson, there have been better Angels
I think wilson is the best, but it's all a matter of opinion. Some people don't even like Pascal or Rapp for those roles, they'd prefer other people. It's all about personal preference.
Collins and Angel are such a cute couple~ :3

A quality only a musical like RENT has - the ability to make someone bawl with a song that only has three lines.
Poor Mark at 3:17. He's like a deer in headlights. D: And he gets coddled a lot in this part of the musical. XD
