Musical Quote Game

[Thicket]

That's "Ruffhousin' with Shuffhausen".


"To make the week go quicker
We've packed a ton of liquor
Rye and Tropicana"

 

[Mister]

That DRS quote has been bothering me for the longest time because I knew that I'd heard it, but for some reason it was much more dramatic in my head, and therefore not from the actual song.

Anyways, the next quote is "Cabin in the Woods" from "Evil Dead: The Musical"

"...The entire language of our species,
which is a favorite term of Nietzsche's,
who's a great-grandfather of Christina Ricci's."  

[PensivePine]

That's "My Friend, the Dictionary" from The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee.

Next:
"You and your glance make this romance too hot to handle
Stars in the night blazing their light can't hold a candle..."  

[Madam Litterbox]

Finian's Rainbow's song Old Devil Moon.


"A little bunny in a shoe box
He thinks he's found a brand new home
So snug and cozy on your closet floor
Now what's that bunny in my closet for?
With a mallet and some clippers
You find out: new bunny slippers!"  

[PensivePine]

"Don't Be the Bunny" from Urinetown

Next up:
"Action, action
Lovely lively action
A word that often has the prefix 're'
Reaction, reaction
The best part is reaction
It's like the breath of life for you and me"  

[PensivePine]

Yeah, I thought that would be a hard one. It's "Eager Beaver," from No Strings, btw.

This next one should be a little easier:
"RSVP, peonies
Pollinate the breeze
Make the queen of bees
Hot as brandy."  

[Mister]

"Hurry, It's Lovely Up Here" from On a Clear Day You Can See Forever
[Of course, I only know this because Audra McDonald does an awesome cover of it]

"Someone has to turn you in
Like a common criminal, like a wounded animal,
A jaded mandarin,
A jaded mandarin,
Like a jaded, faded, faded, jaded, jaded mandarin."  

[penguinsandpie]

That's "The Last Supper" from Jesus Christ Superstar!

"Little more speed,
little more rope,
little more wind,
little more hope!"  

[PensivePine]

"The Kite" from You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown.

Next up:
"All that you are is the end of a nightmare
All that you are is a dying scream
After tonight, I shall end this demon dream."  

[Mister]

"Confrontation" from Jekyll and Hyde

"Just a moment,
One peculiar passing moment.
Must it all be either less or more,
either plain or grand?
Is it always or,
is it never and?"  

[penguinsandpie]

So....I recognized the verse but I could not for the life of me remember what it was from, so I looked it up because I was curious...and now I know the answer, but I kind of cheated...but since no one else seems to know it either...should we just move on? confused  

[PensivePine]

Nah, I knew it as soon as he posted, but since I posted the last one, I wanted to see if anyone else would get it. It's "Moments in the Woods" from Into the Woods.

Next up:
"Oh, how we long to stand still
Stomachs are in distress
We need a helping hand, still
No one is near who can here when we SOS."  

[PensivePine]

Whoa, hint time: It's from a show that opened last season.  

[Thicket]

Darnit. I know I know it, but I don't know it.


Uh. That makes sense. Honest.

 

[Mister]

"In The Same Boat" from Curtains (thanks for the hint!)

"And I notice how you hunger for surprise,
And do not think that you are tall enough.
Like you’re standing on a mountainside alone,
This is what I see."
