(I love the original, and I love this parody!)

Thank-you so much, I'm very happy at the way this one turned out.

I'd like to make this into a fan video some day. Short cuts from the show set to the music and lyrics.

("A Funny Thing Happened..." is a HILARIOUS movie!!)

It sure is, I'd enjoy seeing the stage version some day.

Love the original, and think this parody rocks! I would like to see it on stage, but I haven't yet. Even thoughn you used some original lyrics, they still fit.

Yep, I try to use as much of the original as possible when I filk.

Delightful! My fiancee is a theater geek from way back, and I'm always pleased to pass on filks set to tunes she knows by heart. I'll look forward to hearing her sing this one around the house.
