It's not right before it-- "You Must Love Me" is about 30 minutes before the end of the show-- and it's a moment of realization for her about her relationship with Juan, perhaps...whereas the "Lament" is her finally understanding what Che was warning her about in "High Flying, Adored"-- that the rewards of achieving success so young, and so vehemently pursuing it, are short-lived, and are followed by exhaustion, sadness, and regret.
There's a lot of these moments in the show... I think they're all different enough and subtle enough that none of them is redundant... thoughts? |
