While having a nice hot bath ( or baff if youz frum round yer ) , I was thinking..

New Years games ... I got a pub quiz game , basically a shite load of questions that could be some fun .

also , is anyone cleaver enough with some audio editing software to throw together some “ guess the intro clips “ 

what about some of these identifying areas of Glasto from obscure camera angles or clips.

@ShakeyCrash I loved "We Will Rock You", it's been about 9/10 years since I went to see it though. 

I confess to loving Les Miserables; I don't know if it is because my sister used to play the soundtrack on repeat...

"Do you hear the people sing..."

Tune.

Best film musical, surely as @Losing my hair mentioned it has to be Moulin Rouge? Although The Rocky Horror show runs it close! Grease and The Little Shop of Horrors get honourable mentions!

Love a good musical! 

Best musical TV episode, "Once More with Feeling" in Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

"You got the mustard ouuutttttt..."

I remember listening to those lyrics over the end credits suddenly having my mind blown, having one of those revelations that's profound almost because of how mundane and obvious it is; not the love but, but the "things that you say and do". No matter what you think or feel inside, no matter what you meant, it's ultimately all comes down to what you say and what you do that affects how the rest of the world see you. There's a sense that nothing else really matters. Words and actions, that's it man.

But coming at things from a place of love will always help, because that will colour everything you say and do. So, yeah 🤯, those lyrics really got me thinking one day!

Although the ending of Grease 2 where the cool loner hero, after beating the awful bullies gets his ultimate triumphant victory by...being allowed to join their gang???

Love Les Miserables, love Buffy and love that episode.

My song would be “You can’t stop the beat” obviously unless we are including non-original songs at which point i may plump for your song in moulin rouge which i thought was really well done.

Yeah, the end of Grease 1 isn’t really that great either. Where the woman compromises who she is to be more of the women she thinks the man would want her to be.

Yeah, basically the same shitty "don't be true to yourself" moral for both films!

Although I do like a film that ends with a flying car.

Grease, and I presume Grease 2 - never seen it, is but a pale imitation of West Side Story. America - one of the all time great tunes.

Not a musical but Back to the Future 3 ends with a flying railway engine!
