Avenue Q
Thanks to Woochiao, I am addicted to songs and videos of the hit Tony Award winning broadway musical, 'Avenue Q'! As you will see later, its like an adult parody of Sesame Street. Its super hilarious, and the puppets are amazingly cute! The puppeteers are so damn talented, the lyrics are so funny and cheeky! The songs are amazing!
The musical's so in-your-face, it talks about issues that everyone knows are there, but just won't talk about, stuff like racism, homosexuality and pornography! There's even a sex scene between puppets, and full puppet nudity! To get a feel of just how amazing this musical can be, just look at some of the song titles - stuff like 'It Sucks to Be Me', 'The Internet is For Porn', 'Everybody's A Little Bit Racist', 'If You Were Gay' etc. It is hilarious I tell you, and very very funny and intelligent.


The opening song: "It Sucks To Be Me' - I love the part where Christmas Eve (that's the name of the character played by the slightly punchy Japanese lady) sings 'I say it sukasukasukasuka sukasukasukasuka SUKS!' Hilarious!


Another hilarious song called "If You Were Gay"! Its quite famous actually, and what I love most of this performance is the amazing puppetry! Just look at it! Amazing! I actually feel like learning this song and singing it to some of my friends who are... erm. Yeah. Muahahahahaha!


"You're A Little Bit Racist"! When I first heard this song on Woochiao's car, I was immediately blown away because a musical that dares to talk about this sensitive topic is amazing! AMAZING! It talks about stuff that no one dares to talk about! But yeah, listen to the lyrics, it says everything it needs to.


The last number "For Now"! They only start singing til the 3rd minute or so, so fast forward if you want to! My favourite part - when the cast screams "George Bush! Its only FOR NOW!" Woo Hoo! HOW TRUE MAN! When I first heard it in Woochiao's car, I went berserk too! WAY TO GO AVENUE Q!

I can't stop singing 'It sucks to be meeeee~! It sucks to be meeeeee~!' now!
