    Her diction is just so perfect. I could hear everything she was saying even though she was singing it extremely fast. Imagine if someone like, say, Patti LuPone tried it?

    @SuDokuMaster Před 12 lety +58

    Listen everybody, look, I know what you're waiting for. A wedding what's a wedding it's a prehistorical ritual where everybody promises fidelity forever which is maybe the most horrifying word I've ever heard of, which is followed by a honeymoon where suddenly he'll realize he saddled with a nut and wanna kill me which he should.
    Best tongue twister for theatre ever.

    Bless this day
    Pinnacle of life
    Husband joined to wife
    The heart leaps up to behold
    This golden day
    Today is for Amy
    Amy, I give you the rest of my life
    To cherish and to keep you, to honor you forever
    Today is for Amy
    My happily soon-to-be wife
    Pardon me, is everybody here? Because if everybody's here, I
    Want to thank you all for coming to the wedding, I'd appreciate
    Your going even more, I mean you must have lots of better things
    To do, and not a word of this to Paul, remember Paul, you know,
    The man I'm gonna marry, but I'm not, because I wouldn't ruin
    Anyone as wonderful as he is
    Thank you all
    For the gifts and the flowers,
    Thank you all,
    Now it's back to the showers,
    Don't tell Paul,
    But I'm not getting married today.
    Bless this day
    Tragedy of life
    Husband joined to wife
    The heart sinks down and feels dead
    This dreadful day
    Listen, everybody, look, I don't know what you're waiting for,
    A wedding, what's a wedding, it's a prehistoric ritual
    Where everybody promises fidelity forever, which is
    Maybe the most horrifying word I ever heard of, which is
    Followed by a honeymoon, where suddenly he'll realize he's
    Saddled with a nut, and wanna kill me, which he should
    Thanks a bunch,
    But I'm not getting married
    Go have lunch,
    'Cause I'm not getting married
    You've been grand,
    But I'm not getting married
    Don't just stand there,
    I'm not getting married--
    And don't tell Paul,
    But I'm not getting married today.
    Go, can't you go?
    Why is no-
    Body listening?
    Goodbye
    Go and cry
    At another person's wake
    If you're quick
    For a kick
    You could pick
    Up a christening
    But please
    On my knees
    There's a human life at stake!
    Listen everybody, I'm afraid you didn't hear, or do you want to
    See a crazy lady fall apart in front of you, it isn't only Paul
    Who may be ruining his life, you know we'll both of us be losing
    Our identities, I telephoned my analyst about it and he said to
    See him Monday, but by Monday I'll be floating in the Hudson with
    The other garbage
    I'm not well,
    So I'm not getting married
    You've been swell,
    But I'm not getting married
    Clear the hall,
    'Cause I'm not getting married
    Thank you all,
    But I'm not getting married
    And don't tell Paul,
    But I'm not getting married today.
    Bless this bride
    Totally insane
    Slipping down the drain
    And bless this day in our hearts
    As it starts
    To rain
    Today is for
    Go, can't you go? |Amy,
    Look, you know |Amy,
    I adore you all |I give you
    But why |The rest of
    Watch me die |My life,
    Like Eliza on the ice? |To cherish
    Look, perhaps |And to keep you,
    I'll collapse |To honor you
    In the apse |Forever,
    Right before you all, |Today is for Amy,
    So take |My happily
    Back the cake, |Soon-to-be
    Burn the shoes and boil the rice. |Wife,
    Look, I didn't wanna have to |My adorable
    Tell you, but I may be coming |Wife.
    Down with Hepatitis, and I
    Think I'm gonna faint, so if
    You wanna see me faint, I'll
    Do it happily, but wouldn't
    It be funnier to go and watch
    A funeral, so thank you for the
    Twenty-seven dinner plates,
    Thirty-seven butter knives,
    Forty-seven paperweights,
    Fifty-seven candleholders
    One more thing
    I am not getting married!
    Amen!
    Softly said
    But I'm not getting married!
    Amen!
    With this ring
    Still I'm not getting married!
    Amen!
    I thee wed.
    See, I'm not getting married!
    Amen!

    Mercedes singing "Bless this bride,totally insane.." was in the full studio version. The show usually cuts songs down for time restraints. And the song was a fantasy so reality wasn't really important.

  • @markaloo
    @markaloo Před 11 lety +17

    Well, it's a key part of what's going on in Amy/Emma's mind that also plays the audience for a cheap laugh. The way it was shown in Glee - on TV - missed that "wink and a smile" part of the song which is always the case with Sonheim. All I'm saying is that Glee has definitely made better use of songs within their story-lines and this was not their best effort, in this part case. Agree to disagree kinda thing.

    It was too fast and shrill. Mercedes didn't get to sing one of the best lines "Bless this bride, totally insane...". Glee is great at continually exposing kids to different music from Broadway including the genius of Stephen Sonheim. I'm happily a fan of Glee but they made a mess of this particular song. Plus what was with Will asking about his cufflinks when he wasn't even looking at his wrists and Emma being able to hear him from her chamber?! Made no sense.
