IM GOING TO BE THINKING ABOUT THIS FOREVER OH MY GOD

But on a similar note, I’ve always felt like tell her I love her is just such a beautifully poetic song, like sure, there’s the funny moments in it too, but at its core it’s what stirs Hope and the rebels into a full revolution. It’s Bobby’s last dying words to the people he tried so desperately to lead, to SAVE. One line that has always stood out to me specifically was “I’ve lost my sense of sight/and yet I see them” because AUGH isn’t that just so beautiful???? He’s ACTIVELY dying, his senses are failing him one by one but the people he cares so much about are the last thing he sees, and he still has so much hope for these people he JUST had to convince out of killing his girlfriend but he truly believes they can still do it and it just KILLS ME EVERY TIME.

That song has SO MUCH to it, and so do SO MANY OF THE OTHERS, and I just feel like they get looked over so often as “oh funny haha” which yea, but also!!! You can tell there was just so much thought put into this show when you get into it and istg at some point I wanna do a deep dive into the whole script because I feel like there’s a lot that gets missed

i don’t know of a urinetown community on tumblr, but there’s something i noticed on first listen that i can only pray reaches its target audience.

in act one, you get “follow your heart,” (the most gorgeous song in that show, but that’s another post) and every chorus in it ends with “if only you follow your heart.” in act two, during “tell her i love her,” little sally relays bobby’s last words as “if only…”, saying he expired before he could finish his sentence.

you follow your heart. bobby strong was trying to say “there still is hope, i see it in this land / if only you follow your heart.” ouch. i never saw the point in spending too much time on this detail until i was in the show, and i realized nobody else had noticed it.

urinetown is… dumb. yeah, it makes an enormous point about corporate greed and climate change, but it’s a music about peepee. there’s a REASON nobody reads into this nonsense— it isn’t super necessary to putting on a good production. there’s also the fact that so many urinetown lyrics (probably intentionally) are just there to make performers and consumers alike hear them and make a face. i’m completely here for it, don’t get me wrong, but is this one of those hidden nuggets of meaning?

do i need to go outside?

Its cause they cut out Lockstock and Barrel being gay 😞

The cast recording of We're Not Sorry is only about 2 minutes???? idk why but I swore it was longer

Proshippers are NOT WELCOME on my blog. kindly fuck off

Why the fuck is there a proshipper in the Urinetown fandom get out of here we don't welcome you

The Rat.

guys.

this is a post about a rat. now lets see how big we can get it before ratdetector13 finds it. share it with as many people as you can but not them, and don't add any rat tags.

okay but that line goes SO HARD oh my god

imagine the “Robin meets the JL while Batman is away” trope but it’s inverted. instead of being funny and interesting and extroverted all of the Robins just bolt. bolt, hide, or fight. B told them not to ever let themselves get cornered and to run if a meta sets eyes on them. so they run, they hide, and they fight back with a tiny shard of holdout Kryptonite B had embedded in their gauntlet. they dig their boots in, clench their fists, and prepare to be immovable at <100 lbs.

I only started my blog recently but anyone who follows me and is a fucking pedo can go ahead and leave now. You aren't welcome here.

If you call pedophilia a kink please unfollow me and never talk to me again

Haha I know you

Whaaaaaat???? No!

Yeah I’ll incorporate this into my belief system

dick grayson started saying shit like "teamwork makes the dream work!" and "hydrate before you die-drate!" specifically to annoy his new baby brother on patrol after jason showed up but it became so second nature that he started doing it with the league and the titans and now it's hhis brand whether he likes it or not

bruce has no sympathy. this is karma for the batmobile.
