VERY minor and VERY vague spoilers in my post below...
GMB, I'd love to read your post! I may have unintentionally given the impression that I was totally cold about this show or that I didn't like ANY of the music. That's certainly not the case. There were some songs that rose above the sameness of what I found a pretty uninspired pop-rock sound. I thought the penultimate memory song quite moving, for example. And, though I think this was much more about the arrangement and the musical PERFORMANCE of The Thoughts, I did find the ironic gospel number thrilling. The set reveal that accompanies that number added to the dramatic impact of that moment, no doubt.
Anyway, I'd love to read your thoughts. |
