Whizzer Brown (Falsettos)

Elder Mckinley (The Book of Mormon)

Woof (Hair)

Mark Cohen (Rent)

Gordon Schwinn (A New Brain)

*Ted talk voice* Are my opinions trash? Yes. Do I accept that my opinions are trash? No. I will fight you-

if william finn can write ‘mr marvin’ instead of giving him a last name then why can’t fanfic writers do it too?

do you think mendel has in trousers just recounted to him. hes so odd id absolutely love to hear how he even responds to it

ROLES I WANT DAVID TENNANT TO PLAY IN MUSICALS: THE MASTERLIST

Okay so I've divided this into three categories, which you shall see below!

Roles I Think David Could/Should Play NOW:

Charlie Guiteau in Assassins

someone in Brigadoon bc it would be funny

The Emcee in Cabaret

Ryuk in Death Note

The Man In The Chair in The Drowsy Chaperone

The Dysquith Family in A Gentleman's Guide to Love And Murder

Herbie in Gypsy

Hades in Hadestown

Frollo in Hunchback of Notre Dame (okay give him like five years)

The Baker in Into The Woods

Lord Chancellor in Iolanthe

Albin or Georges in La Cage Aux Folles (either one as long as the other is played by Michael Sheen)

Trunchbull in Matilda OKAY HEAR ME OUT (he could also do Mr Wormwood)

Henry Higgins in My Fair Lady

Fagin in Oliver

Tateh in Ragtime

Riff Raff OR Frank N Furter in Rocky Horror

Shakespeare in Something Rotten

Squidward in SpongeBob (im so serious)

Sweeney Todd (utterly delusional but I need it to happen)

The Wizard in Wicked

Roles I Think David Would Have Nailed When He Was Younger

The Balladeer in Assassins

anyone in Cats please it would be so funny (especially Munkustrap)

Connor Murphy in Dear Evan Hansen (like Campbell era come ON)

Motel in Fiddler on the Roof

Marvin in Falsettos (he MIGHT get away with that now not sure)

Monty in Gentleman's Guide

J.P. Finch in How To Succeed In Business Without Really Trying

Molina in Kiss of the Spider Woman

Emmet in Legally Blonde

Seymour in Little Shop of Horrors

Edgar Allan Poe in Nevermore

Leo Frank in Parade

Narrator/Cat in the Hat in Seussical

Georg in She Loves Me

any character Christian Borle played in Spamalot

Tobias Ragg in Sweeney Todd

Roles David Quite Doesn't Have The Instrument For But I Would Watch Him Do Them Anyway Bc He Would Act The Hell Out Of Them:

Any Elder in The Book of Mormon (Younger)

Robert in Bridges of Madison County

Bobby in Company (Younger)

Jervis in Daddy Long Legs (Younger)

Lucheni in Elisabeth (Younger)

or death. Rudolph too tbh

Bruce Bechdel in Fun Home

Edward Rochester in Jane Eyre

Henry Jekyll/Edward Hyde (younger)

Judas in Jesus Christ Superstar (younger)

Javert in Les Miserables

Christian in Moulin Rouge (Younger)

Pierre in Great Comet (this one actually kills me bc he and Phileas are so similar)

OR ANATOLE HOLY CRAP

Gabe in Next to Normal (Younger)

Erik in Phantom of the Opera

Mark Cohen in Rent (younger)

Noel Gruber or Ricky Potts in Ride the Cyclone (younger)

Archibald Craven in The Secret Garden

Joe/Josephine in Some Like It Hot

BURRS IN THE WILD PARTY OH I WISH THIS WERE REALISTIC IT WOULD BE SO GOOD

GOD this is long please spill the opinions so this was worth it

I find it funny that musicals fandoms such as TBOM and Newsies completely agreed on first/last names for characters that didn't have any (well, mostly agreed. there's a few places I've seen that don't agree) Also, I know that for Newsies a lot of the names were taken from historical inspo.

Like, (bolded are fandom-made names btw)

Antony 'Race' Higgins

Sean 'Spot' Conlon

Elder Connor McKinley

James Church (This one isn't used in all fics, but most I've seen)

But for some reason, no one can agree on a frickin last name for Marvin/Jason (Trina is usually Weisenbachfeld)

Why do they just not have a last name???

The one I've seen the most (and used to use myself, if needed) is Cohen. But it's always entertaining to watch and see people try and write around it.

Edit: I made a mistake, I do use Gardens for Marvin/jason for my more updated fics I just forgot to put it here. Sorry if I confused you!

The Best Album Per Year for Sixty Years

No-one asked for it, of course, but I do like making lists, so here's me pondering what have been the best Long Players in the album artform the past 60 years. I originally tried to keep it to just one per year, but many years that proved impossible: when listing multiple albums I have tried ranking them with the one I feel narrowly edges out the others first, and I use lower case to indicate an album that is not at the same level as others on the list but was the best I've heard from that time.

Feel free to have fun with the list and make up your own.

Day 100 (11/28/23)

First and foremost before I get to today's theme, I want to say a heartfelt thank you to all who have played along and enjoyed the 100 Days of Music Music Challenge. So many great themes and great songs were shared over these past 99 days. I've enjoyed being you host as I am a music junkie if there ever was one.

I've considered doing a holiday themed music challenge for December if any of you are interested. If you are, let me know. I'll start it this Friday on December 1st.

With that being said, let's get to today's theme for day 100 of our 100 Days of Music Music Challenge.

Share a song or songs you love that talk about another music artist in the song. It can be in the title, or the song is about another music artist, or it can mention an artist or artists in the lyrics.

Midnight In Montgomery - Alan Jackson (About Hank Williams) Love this song

Rock and Roll Heaven - The Righteous Brothers (a whole lot of folks mentioned)

Leonard Cohen - Bobby Bazini

Night Shift - The Commodores (Marvin Gaye, Jackie Wilson)

Black Velvet - Alannah Myles (Elvis Presley)

Hi AU where Whizzer is a professional baseball player and Marvin meets him at a bar the night before one of his games (which Marvin is only there because he’s taking Jason to see it), they hook up, and then he sees them on a professional team the next day and realizes that Whizzer brown is in fact the baseball player his son Jason idolizes

That’s all ❤️
