wow - this is very knowing, your succinct and vivid post shows you know your Applause and I thoroughly enjoyed reading your critique
RE "Something Greater" -
1) you know the the B section, "I now there's something better, I know there's something greater"
at this point, did LB replicate a bit of the 'magnificent frug' she did in Cactus Flower (per Life Magazine)
this is so declamatory is almost assaultive
2) the orchestral break before LCariou comes in.
sound like a soundtrack as some one is almost falling off a cliff before the hero arrives |
