Musical Game?

Musical Game?

Musical Game?

I've seen games like this before, where someone gives a quote from a book or movie, but I haven't seen any using musicals, so I want to see if I could start a game like that.

The rules are very simple: someone writes a quote from a musical (AGE APPROPRIATE PLEASE), and someone tries to guess it. If they are right, THAT person says a different quote and it continues.

I'll start:

"Just because you find that life's not fair it

doesn't mean that you just have to grin and bear it,"

Good Luck! (Tock says urwy. Not a quote, Tock!)

That's from Matlida, right?

"You see this tree? This is a fir tree!

It's called a fir tree because it gives us fur--for coats."

Top! I don't know this quote, but top! Also, can we do movie-musicals as well? I know they're technically not real Broadway and all, but there are some movie-musicals that deserve a Broadway version. (Why isn't Hercules more popular? Alan Menken is a score-writing GENIUS.)

And I look at the thread I topped thinking it had just been posted and realize it's from January first. Oh well, I shall bring it back to life! New quote?

The dreams I can't declare 

The needs I can't deny
You'd understand them all
If only you would try."

The little mermaid! I love that musical! 

My turn!

"Lets pretend we're riding on a kite. Lets imagine we're flying through the air! We'll ascend until we're out of sight. Light as paper, we'll soar!"

OHMYGOODNESSOHMYGOODNESSTHATISFROMLITTLEWOMENILOVETHATMUSICAL!

Or, for those of you who don't read the long strings of capital letters, oh my goodness that quote is from Little Women! I love that musical!!! SO MUCH!!!

Because nobody guessed my quote, I'll simply post it again. Also, Clumbsy Unicorn's quote was from Matilda the Musical! 

"You see this tree? This is a fir tree!

It's called a fir tree because it gives us fur--for coats."  

Also, Regina, what is your favorite song from Little Women? Personally, I like Astonishing, but that might be because I've sung it for a cabaret class before.

Also, please note that I have never actually seen the musical. I have just listened to the soundtrack about 1,000,000 times!

I like Astonishing too!! I also like Off to Massachusetts, Better, Could you, Some things are ment to be, Small umbrella in the rain, and Five forever. So basically all of them! I've actually never seen it either but I love the music and I looked up a version on youtube but it could have been different. 

I'm not sure what your quote is, sorry...

Yeah, I really like Off To Massachusetts, too. Partially because I live in Massachusetts! :) 

I also like Five Forever, Some Things Are Meant To Be, and The Weekly Volcano Press.

Oy, I like them all! All of them It's a wonderful soundtrack!!!

@Bibliophile

Your quote is from Into The Woods! I also like that soundtrack!

Keep guessing mine, guys!

I haven't watched that many musicals, but here's one quote:

I wish , more than anything .

I wish more than the moon

I wish.

I wish to go to the festival!

Um, um, um, also Into the Woods! That is such a great musical!

Here's one:

I'm amazed that men like you

Can be so shallow, thick and slow 

There is not a man among you

Who knows or cares if I live or go!

Hmm...OTR's quote sounds kind of Alice in Wonderland-y. Unfortunately, despite being a huge fan, I have not seen any musical adaptations, except the original Disney animated movie, and this isn't from that. But that's a guess! A kind of vague one, but a guess!

Is it from Honk?

Fflewddur says bywa. By the way? By the way, what? Biddle byway?

Or did you mean...boy way. Peter Pan? Finding Neverland?

Nope, sorry!

Amber, I don't know what your quote is, but it sounds familiar...

Er, sounds like something I should know...

Hmmm.... is it from Honk? Or Into the Woods again?
