J&C

Though 've listened to these songs for a while, never bothered to find out how they're used in this musical. Then, today finally find out that it begins with Seasons of Love and ends with Finale B; can't tell how much I appreciate this arrangment.

If we are aware that we may lose someone dear to us so easily; if we can barely support ourselves; what possibilities are left for us? In this film, it says LOVE is all we can hold on to, though it may fade away like anything else but just as Mark and Joan sing :at least I'll have tangoed at all.

Shedding tears when Collins sings another version's "I'll cover you". It's the first time that I'm getting to know the meaning of "soul". Cry when Collins owns how much he's been in love with Angel; also cry when I'm anxious about Roger and Mimi's duet "I should tell you" may cease anytime; hate to be so sentimental but it's better to be easily touched than callous.

As for the Bohemian way of living, I think I find it in "Finale B"：

MARK
There is no future
There is no past

ROGER
Thank God this
Moment's not the last

MIMI & ROGER
There's only us
There's only this
Forget regret or
Life is yours to miss

ALL
No other road no other way
No day but today

WOMEN
I can't control
My destiny
I trust my soul
My only goal

MEN
Will I lose my dignity
Will someone care
Will I wake tomorrow
From this nightmare

WOMEN
Is just to be
Without
You
The hand gropes
The ear hears
The pulse beats
Life goes on
But I'm gone

MEN
There's only now
There's only here
Give in to love
Or live in fear
No other path
No other way

WOMEN
'Cause I die
Without you
I die without you
I die without you
I die without you
I die without you
I die without you

MEN
No day but today
No day but today
No day but today
No day but today
No day but today
No day but today

ALL
NO DAY BUT TODAY!!
