Gender Bender Suggestions? - 2008/01/07 02:07 Hi, I have always been of the opinion that although guys got the better characters in musical theatre, girls tend to get the better songs. So I have had this dream for the longest time of doing a CD of Broadway songs originally done by females but transposed and arranged to be sung by a guy. Just recently I have gotten access to recording equipment and I am going to take a stab at recording at least a few songs and seeing if I like what I get. I am interested in two things from you guys:

1. An idea for the name of CD... Maybe it is taken off one of tracks, maybe not.

2. Below I have listed my possible track selections, I would love for people to weight in on the ones I thought of and possibly open my eyes to songs I had not considered. Thanks in advance.

My Book
Papa, Can You Hear Me
Piece of Sky
Infinite Joy
The World Goes Round
Fine, Fine Line
Someone Like You
Anytime (I Am There)
By the River
Is Someone Out There
Summertime
What I Did For Love
Life of the Party
Getting Married Today
It's Amazing the Things That Float
Raise the Roof

Waiting For Life
If I Told You Now

Kiss of the Spiderwoman
Home – Piece
Home – The Wiz
Losing Track of Time
Never Neverland – Piece
Astonishing

I'm Not Afraid of Anything
Home – Beauty and the Beast
On My Way
See What I Wanna See
Don't Rain On My Parade
Hold On
I Dreamed a Dream
The Winner Takes it All
Who Will Love Me as I Am
Children Will Listen

Thanks again.

Re:Gender Bender Suggestions? - 2008/01/15 01:19 sounds cool to me. one of the theatres here does "broadway our way" as a fund raiser every year, with exactly that concept. there is also a company in NYC that is doing a similar show this month called "broadway backwards" ( the director is from Dallas) so i think the CD would definitely sell. might be tough getting the rights to record...
