Ashley Orton as Adelaide, Cupertino High School |
I
have seen a couple versions of this show, Utah State Extension in
Vernal, and Cupertino High School. I enjoy the music from this show. Listening to the music is also enjoyable. My favorite songs
from this show are, "Take Back Your Mink", "Luck be a Lady", "Sit Down
You're rocking the Boat" and "Sue Me". The Movie version of Frank
Sinatra singing "Sue Me" is beautiful.
This CD recording includes some bonus material from Frank Loesser who
wrote the music and lyrics. This includes Adelaide which was in the
movie, and a couple other songs which were cut, as well as a different
version of "Luck be a Lady".
This time listening to the music, I was most touched by "Mary the Man
Today". "Marry the man today, and change his ways tomorrow." I think
Sheri has been trying to change me for 27 years, and I am failing
miserably.
