The Heather On The Hill

Hey guys, so a couple of people asked if there were other videos from this production, particularly of Heather On The Hill and From This Day On, and I finally got around to uploading the whole show, so here's one of them

thanks! the verse was cut because the director had a philosophy that too much of a ballad bores the audience, so he tended to chop them up to make them shorter. oh well!

and thanks for the compliment about the change on the "making love" line - that i definitely agreed with :)

Nice job! How come the verse "The mornin' dew is blinkin' yonder, there's lazy music in the rill. And all I want to do is wander through the heather on the hill." was cut?

Agreed on the "making love" line. Always thought that that line was cringe worthy, so I like the change you guys did.

thanks! i'm from outside of Boston, MA, but i'm in school right now, out-of-state.

can't tell if that's sarcasm or not, but yes, we did change it, because we thought that the line sounded awkward and would get unwanted laughs because of that...we figured the integrity of the scene was worth expending a tiny, tiny bit of Lerner's book.

2:03 The line is, "It almost sounded like I was making love to you." You guys changed it. I wonder why.
