It's no secret that I am a huge American Idol fan! After my personal crazy-audition experience, I've felt a certain connection with the show. As dorky as it sounds, it is my show. So when given the opportunity from the One2One Network to review the new Broadway musical starring American Idol finalist Constantine Maroulis, I jumped at the chance. And I have to say...I was kind of disappointed. The music was fun. I enjoyed rocking out to the old schoolgoodies, but the dialogue drove me crazy! Granted, the only time I really listen to music is either while working out, or while in the car with kids in tow. This time, I had the kids with me. While my 3-year old loved the LOUD music, I personally cringed whenever the music stopped. There were several conversations involving foul language, and topics definitely inappropriate for small ears. So I have to be honest...I would probably prefer an album with the songs from the musical without the added conversation. As much as I want to give a positive review (because of my love of all things American Idol), I can't. Don't buy it. But here's a list of the songs if you want a good mix without the junk:
Tracklisting Just Like Paradise / Nothin' But A Good Time Sister Christian We Built This City / Too Much Time On My Hands I Wanna Rock We're Not Gonna Take It Heaven/More Than Words / To Be With You Waiting For A Girl Like You Wanted Dead Or Alive I Want To Know What Love Is Cum On Feel The Noize / We're Not Gonna Take It (Reprise) Harden My Heart / Shadows Of The Night Here I Go Again The Final Countdown Any Way You Want It / I Wanna Rock (Reprise) High Enough I Hate Myself For Loving You / Heat Of The Moment Hit Me With Your Best Shot Can't Fight This Feeling Every Rose Has Its Thorn Oh Sherrie The Search Is Over Don't Stop Believin
That sounds like a fun thing to do. It is amazing how they think we all want to hear crap language. You and Kim sounded so good at the wedding dinner. It was so cute of you both to plan and deliver such a tribute to Mike and Ann. Love ya
I don't think I'll rush out to buy it! You gave it a good shot at a good review. Too bad they feel like they have to use bad language to be cool. Seriously....
