Wow, we're practically in Realtime! I JUST wrote that post!

Anyway, the impression I got from 'Dive' was that it sounded very much
like Olivia Newton John -- trying to copy The Ninth Wave! Which is
weird, because Brightman, whom I saw in concert with Webber stuff last
month, usually sounds very thick-voiced and pretentiously operatic. I
discovered that I don't like Webber much either -- too simplistic in
lyric and theme, and way too 'pop' for true theatre. How 'bout those
rockin' lyrics that Jesus sings in JC Superstar: 'Watch Me Die, Watch
Me Die..." Great stuff (read heavy sarcasm.)

Wonder what a full-storyline Kate production would be like...'Live'
doesn't count because the various songs were jammed together with
little development to their order. Guess The Line/Cross/Curve is as
close as we'll get!
