I find it incredibly odd that I love music, opera, and film, but I cannot and have not ever been able to sit through a musical. I've seen all the great ones, and they just make my stomach turn.

I just cannot take a musical. It's like they are all bad to me. Maybe it had something to do with being forced to watch Cats or Sound of Music in my school days.

It's funny, because I like a lot jazz standards that came from Broadway plays, but I think it has a lot to do with who sings the song and who arranges it.

Then again, I think Leonard Bernstein was one of the greatest conductors of his time for classical music, yet I cannot stomach West Side Story.

This one would make a convert out of you.

Or perhaps not. *shrug*
