Comments on: "What Is This Feeling?", Wicked Soundtrack, Stephen Schwartz http://www.thelisteningblog.com/2008/07/what-is-this-feeling-wicked-soundtrack-stephen-schwartz/ “Listen all the time, and remind yourself when you’re not listening, or else the mike and the tape recorder will get the best of you.” – Pauline Oliveros Wed, 04 Jan 2012 01:08:30 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Albert http://www.thelisteningblog.com/2008/07/what-is-this-feeling-wicked-soundtrack-stephen-schwartz/comment-page-1/#comment-267 Albert Wed, 30 Jul 2008 23:43:00 +0000 http://ajtesttest.wordpress.com/2008/07/30/what-is-this-feeling-wicked-soundtrack-stephen-schwartz/#comment-267 I'm so very honored to be mentioned on TLB, twice at that! (at least I'm assuming I'm the Albert--I'll pretend I am anyway). <br/><br/>I'd like to congratulate you on reading all kinds of deep and subtle meaning into my off-hand, totally uninformed comments (one of which I don't even remember saying). I probably stole those ideas from somewhere and didn't have the decency (as you had) to mention where I heard them. <br/><br/>Next time one of our many, many conversations about learning Chinese comes up on MY blog, you'll receive full credit, I assure you.<br/><br/>Keep on rockin'!

Keep on rockin’!

I don't think I've ever had that experience with any other song, but it always struck me as really cool how this song basically choreographs itself just by the music.<br/><br/>I'd agree that next to Defying Gravity this is the best song in the show . . . I REALLY want to do a duet audition with this song someday.

I love it when a beat/pulse can be felt in a song without the presence of percussion. This is definately the case in this song. And when the percussive eighth notes enter (at 1:30), it just fits right in. I really love this song. I love it when a beat/pulse can be felt in a song without the presence of percussion.
