I am just now getting reacquainted with the musical Aida. I remember a few years ago I played this song on repeat a lot. Not to mention that I will get to see and possibly meet Adam Pascal when the Rent tour comes to my area ^_^. I am well aware that this would make much more sense with Ahiru, Rue, and Mytho, but I feel that Fakir fits the part of Radames much better, mostly because both he and Adam Pascal are SEXY AS HELL and just like I picture Ahiru with Heather Headley's voice, I can just as easily picture Fakir with Adam's voice. And of course I felt Rue was a great fit for Amneris as the popular but insecure Egyptian princess, as well as using Sherie Rene Scott's voice with her. Use your imagination with this one.
The basic idea is that Ahiru (Aida) and Fakir (Radames) are in love, but there is also the issue of Rue (Amneris), that he is betrothed to (I'M NOT A FAKIR/RUE SHIPPER, THIS IS FOR AU PURPOSES ONLY!) And Rue is missing him. This is how all 3 of them are feeling at the moment.
The song is "A Step Too Far." Enjoy!
Lyrics:
It's so strange he doesn't show me
more affection than he needs
Almost formal too respectful
never takes romantic leads
There are times when I imagine
I'm not always on his mind
He's not thinking what I'm thinking
Always half a step behind
Always half a step behind
Ohhhhh...
Ohhhhh...
Ohhhhh...
I'm in every kind of trouble
Can't you tell, just look at me
Half ecstatic,half dejected
All in all I'm all at sea
Easy terms I thought I wanted
Fill me now with chilling dread
You could never know the chaos
Of a life turned on it's head
Of a life turned on it's head
Ohhhhh...
Ohhhhh...
Ohhhhh...
Ohhhhh...
I am certain that I love him
But a love can be misplaced
Have I compromised my people
In my passion and my haste?
I could be his life companion
Anywhere but where we are
Am I leader? Am I traitor?
Did I take a step too far?
And then all 3 of them sing their respective verses at once (this was a doozy to edit, btw), and then...
Ohhhhh...
Ohhhhh...
Ohhhhh...
Ohhhhh...
Ohhhhh...
Ohhhhh...
Ohhhhh...
Did I take a step too far?
