Ricky Potts, a boy who makes his entrance with his trusted walking-canes, sings about his religion and how he'll hope to find his leaders. After a few more songs ("Every Story's Got A Lesson", "This Song Is Awesome"), Mischa sings about rap and his long-distance girlfriend Talia. Once she finishes, Noel Gruber (who is introduced as the only gay guy in his small town) sings about how he want to be a sex worker in post- World War Paris, France. This offer is presented as a contest, giving each student a chance to come forward and present their case for why they should return to life.įirst, Ocean O'Connell Rosenberg, a cheerful school girl raised in a liberal family, sings about how she is the only one worth living because of her grades and grade point average. (It is unknown if this is for recreation or other purposes). He says that he can bring back one of the souls beyond death, and back to life. Before the children would pass into the afterlife, the fortune-telling machine brings their souls there to present an offer. Before they all died, a fortune-telling machine read their fortunes, knowing they would ride the doomed rollercoaster and could tell them nothing. (Ayyy □□)Īdding Jane Doe to the list of dream roles I could never play.Ride the Cyclone is a musical about six teens, all part of a Canadian school choir, dying in a freak roller coaster accident. I guess you could say it's an emotional rollercoaster. This musical is all over the place in terms of tone. I just can't sing the super high operatic notes.) Wishing I could sing this song (still talking about The Ballad of Jane Doe), but alas, it's not in my range.Several Dies Irae references in The Ballad of Jane Doe.Kronos was a time titan, and he ate his children, so yeah. I know "Time eats all his children in the end" is talking about death (also, wow, that line hits hard), but also, one could easily make a Greek mythology joke out of it.The Ballad of Jane Doe! The one song I actually know from this!.Wow, this song has some Ukrainian words in it.Not me seeing the song title of This Song Is Awesome, and thinking, " Everything is awesome! Everything is cool when you work in a team!".(This musical is pretty good so far, I just feel like I'd understand it a lot more if I saw it live.) "This second movement won't make a lick of sense until you see it live." I feel like none of this will make sense unless I see it live lol." The pretty knife that I stuck ten times in his back!" Chicago reference? ("He ran into my knife ten times!").It's got a nice beat, but wow, those lyrics are messed up. "This goes to show that with enough up-tempo shine, you can make any odious idea palatable, even social Darwinism." Accurate summary of What the World Needs.(The song's a bop tho, no matter how rude the lyrics are.) (Kinda like Candy Store from Heathers.) (I mean, it's kind of a bop, but it's, like, really messed up.) I once saw a video of someone singing What the World Needs, and the caption was something along the lines of, "You know the mean girl is scary when she uses social Darwinism." Yeah, pretty much.Anyone remember Final Destination 3? When a bunch of people died on a rollercoaster? That's the overall vibe of this.A lot of dramatic irony in The Uranium Suite.I know Brittain Ashford isn't in this, but Jane Doe kinda sounds like Brittain Ashford.For some reason, this musical is all over my fyp on tiktok, so I guess I'll react to it.
