After all... tomorrow is another day!

I'm enjoying this musical as it continues on Monday, but this epi is too Starr-centric to be as enjoyable as Friday's.

I'm enjoying it but I even liked the last musical a few years back. I'm a sucker for cheesey shit like this and it's nice to see the show having some fun and advancing story all at the same time.

Friday was good and I felt today was much better. KA really is a star and I almost feel like she becomes a better actress when she has to sing and act. I probably liked today more because there was more story movement. That last scene with Cole pulling up in the police car with Starr singing had to be the most adorable/magical thing I've seen on soaps in awhile. I don't recommend every soap do a musical but I do wish others would produce more stuff like this. More fun and the kind of magical moments that soaps are supposed to produce. I'm not a big Starr/Cole fan and even I felt that last scene pulled out at the heartstrings and that is what soaps are supposed to do.

I loved the whole thing...the opening number was a great introduction to the prom...I really, really loved If I Could Turn Back Time (especially because Jessica was channeling her inner Cher)...Langston and Layla have sweet voices....Markko discovering the truth and Langston seeing the real Ford were good developments...Cole and Starr's reunion was sweet as well. Loved Dorian playing Fairy Godmother. Can't wait to see the conclusion!

I enjoyed today's episode. It was a little too Starr-centric for me, but what can you do?

I didn't recognize Markko's song, Starr's last song, and I think one other song...are they original songs or just covers of obscure tracks?
I think OLTL will be nominated and win for Original Song for Starr X'ed Lovers next year...years ago, Passions won for their "I Ain't Sorry" song.

What I don't get is why they didn't put the cover songs on ITunes for purchase. They needed to get rights to use them on the show. At least they would make back some of the production money to cover the songs. I know I would have probably purchased a couple of the cover songs.

The song Markko and Starr sang together was written for the show,as was Starr's solo's.I wish they would put the covers on itunes darn it.

Just finished watching Day 2 of the musical. Overall I didn't think it was any better or worse than Day 1. Again it was entertaining and we saw a lot of plot movement. Some general comments:

* I still am having this hard time buying Starr/Cole as this forever couple. I am over the whole Todd hates Cole...vice versa. Also don't get all the effort Dorrian is making for Cole to show up at the prom.

* They really have a good younger group coming together with Dani, Matthew, Destiny, Nate and Darren. I actually enjoy their stuff more than Langston, Markko, Cole and Starr.

* YIPEEEE that Markko is finding out about the tramp that Langston is. Sorry I couldn't help but laugh at Langston catching Ford and the Pizza Girl together.

* Oh I just want to smack Jessica upside the head. Between stuffing the ballot box and not telling Brody she remembers something I don't know what irritated me more.

Again the cast shows what talent they had with their performances throughout the prom. Looking forward to Day 3.

I agree with this about Kristen.

And I did enjoy that last song. I hadn't realized it was an original for the show.

I guess about the same time they started to allow people to leave so they can go to the prom :biggrin:

I have to say I have really been pleasantly surprised with OLTL these last few days. They've done a good job with this musical.

I dont know about anyone else but I saw some chemistry between Starr and Markko, I wouldnt mind them being paired romantically somewhere down the road.

I have seen it before with them and did again today. I would like to see that pairing play out.

It had been a wonderful evening and what I needed now, to give it the perfect ending, was a little of the Ludwig Van.

If any American purchases the Starr X-ed Lovers soundtrack on iTunes, I'll give you money for the m4as!
Some of these videos (if not all) have download links for the songs. :)
