    I never realized how brilliant 1:12 is. That takes serious diction.

    I saw this play at my university in Texas. This character was played by a much older lady and it actually added a mrs. Robinson type of vibe to the story implying an impossible love. That was a nice touch.

    Barbara Cook introduced this song that became her signature song with Till there was you .Laura Benanti is a very.talented Soprano and sings it very well .In 2015 she presented Barbara Cook saying that if there were a soprano island Barbara Cook should have the leading room.Laura is with Kelli O Hara Audra Mc Donald Sierra Boggess Laura Osnes and few others are today the great sopranos .

      Totally agree, but you forgot about Kristin Chenoweth!

    • @cynaraslover
      @cynaraslover ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Completely agreed. And Benanti IS superb. But speaking as a 72 year old man, who in the spring of 1963, as a 12 year old boy, was taken to see the original Broadway production of "She Loves Me," I still believe the honor of the best rendition belongs to the songs originator, whom I had the pleasure of seeing in concert almost 20 times, the Divine Miss Barbara Cook.
      I actually find Chenoweth to be a little screechy at times.

      Please add the late Marin Mazzie and the late Rebecca Luker, two wonderful women and great sopranos I was lucky to meet. As well as Audra McDonald, another great soprano.

    Dear friend
    I am so sorry about last night
    It was a nightmare in every way
    But together you and I will laugh at last night someday
    Ice cream
    He brought me ice cream!
    Vanilla ice cream!
    Imagine that!
    Ice cream, and for the first time
    We were together without a spat!
    Friendly
    He was so friendly
    That isn't like him
    I'm simply stunned
    Will wonders never cease?
    Will wonders never cease?
    It's been a most peculiar day!
    Will wonders never cease?
    Will wonders never cease?
    Oh, where was I?
    I am so sorry about last night
    It was a nightmare in every way
    But together you and I will laugh at last night someday!
    I sat there waiting in that café
    And never guessing that you were fat... oh!
    That you were near
    You were outside looking bold... oh, no!
    Dear Friend
    I am so sorry about last night
    Last night I was so nasty!
    Well, he deserved it, but even so
    That George is not like this George
    This is a new George that I don't know
    Somehow it all reminds me of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde
    When right before my eyes
    A man that I despise has turned into a man I like!
    It's almost like a dream, as strange as it may seem
    He came to offer me vanilla ice cream

    ­”Caro amigo,
    Lamento tanto o que aconteceu
    Nossa conversa me constrangeu
    Mas estou certa que algum dia,
    Riremos disso você e eu”
    Ele trouxe sorvete
    E era de creme
    Não pude crer
    E nós, nós nem brigamos
    Nós conversamos sem ofender
    Fofo, ele foi fofo
    Eu tô passada
    Porque foi bom
    Não dá pra acreditar
    Não dá pra acreditar
    Que dia mais peculiar
    Não dá pra acreditar
    Não dá pra acreditar
    Onde eu tava?
    “Lamento tanto o que aconteceu
    Nossa conversa me constrangeu
    Mas estou certa que algum dia,
    Riremos disso você e eu
    Eu me sentei naquele café
    Nem percebi que estava gordo
    Não! Que estava perto…
    Que estava perto e tão careca”
    Ai meu deus!
    “Caro amigo,
    Lamento tanto o que aconteceu...”
    Ontem eu fui tão rude
    Foi merecido
    Mas, mesmo assim
    Esse não é o Jorge
    É outro Jorge
    Novo pra mim
    Isso até me lembra
    Aquele filme “O Médico e o Monstro”
    Pois bem na minha frente
    Um ser intransigente
    Virou o homem que eu gostei
    Quem ia imaginar
    Que iria me alegrar
    Pois trouxe para mim
    Sorvete de: CREME !!
