march of the falsettos came out in 1981 and falsettoland (the second part) came out in 1990. i have both albums on cd and they are genuinely some of the best lyric writing and most interesting music composition i’ve ever heard. it’s hilarious and depressing and i cry every time i listen to it all the way through. the new 2016 version is also amazing (and has christian borle my king in it)
falsettos will forever be my favorite musical not only because the characters are pretty relatable, but mainly because the music absolutely slaps man. none of it is ever skipped when I am listening
1. Rocky Horror Picture Show is one my favorite movies of all time so obvi it‘s first on the list.
2. Rent (the movie and any live stage performance)
3. Falsettos
i’m needing to remind myself that being odd and dressing uniquely is not a bad thing. going back to university and not knowing anyone in my classes while also showing up in a full tweed suit or a tetris cardigan or a long brocade jacket is okay. don’t let the uniqueness leave you just because people give you strange looks.
be more like the girl that dresses in head to toe lolita coords every day. or the guy that came to class dressed as soulja boy for no particular reason. get weird with it!!
