  • Solo

    Jelana: The power of love is a curious thing

    Make-a one man weep, make another man sing

    Flo: Change a hawk to a little white dove

    More than a feeling, that's the power of love

    Leora: Tougher than diamonds, rich like cream

    Stronger and harder than a random dream

    Belen: Make a bad one good, make a wrong one right

    Power of love will keep you home at night

    All 

    You don't need money, don't take fame

    Don't need no credit card to ride this train

    It's strong and it's sudden and it's cruel sometimes

    But it might just save your life

    That's the power of love

    Solo 

    Arabella: First time you feel it, it might make you sad

    Next time you feel it, it might make you mad

    All: But you'll be glad, baby, when you've found

    That's the power

    That makes the world go round

    All 

    You don't need money, don't take fame

    Don't need no credit card to ride this train

    It's strong and it's sudden and it'll be cruel sometimes

    But it might just save your life

    They say that all in love is fair

    Yeah, but you don't care

    But you know what to do 

    When it gets hold of you 

    And with a little help from above 

    You feel the power of love

    You don't need money, you don't take fame

    Don't need no credit card to ride this train

    It's strong and it's sudden and it'll be cruel sometimes

    You won't feel nothin' till you feel

    Feel the power, just the power of love 

    That's the power, that's the power of love

    You feel the power of love

    You feel the power of love

    You feel the power of love

GUYS AND DOLLS

SPRING TERM

  • Regents - I Got Rhythm (An American in Paris)

    Days can be sunny, with never a sigh

    Don't need what money can buy

    Birds in the trees sing their day full of song

    Why shouldn't we sing along?

    I'm chipper all the day, happy with my lot

    How do I get that way

    Look at what I've got

    I got rhythm and I got music, I got my man

    Who could ask for anything more?

    I've got daises in my very green pastures

    I got my man

    Who could ask for anything more?

    Repeat.

AUTUMN TERM

  • I Feel the Earth Move - Beautiful (Carole King Musical):

    I feel the earth move under my feet

    I feel the sky tumblin' down

    I feel my heart start to tremblin'

    Whenever you're around

    Ooh baby, when I see your face

    Mellow as the month of May

    Oh darlin', I can't stand it

    When you look at me that way

    I feel the earth move under my feet

    I feel the sky tumblin' down

    I feel my heart start to tremblin'

    Whenever you're around

    (Dance Break 1:00 to 1:32)

    Oh darlin', when you're near me

    And you tenderly call my name

    I know that my emotions

    Are somethin' I just can't tame

    I feel the earth move under my feet

    I feel the sky tumblin' down, a-tumblin' down

    I feel the earth move under my feet

    I feel the sky tumblin' down, a-tumblin' down

    I feel the earth move under my feet

    I feel the sky tumblin' down, a-tumblin' down

    I feel the earth move under my feet

    I feel the sky tumblin' down, tumblin' down

    Cut & fade to end …

  • Big Yellow Taxi - Joni Mitchell:

    They paved paradise and put up a parking lot

    With a pink hotel, a boutique, and a swinging hot spot

    Don't it always seem to go

    That you don't know what you got 'til it's gone?

    They paved paradise and put up a parking lot

    Ooh, bop-bop-bop

    Ooh, bop-bop-bop

    They took all the trees and put 'em in a tree museum

    And they charged the people a dollar and a half just to see them

    Don't it always seem to go

    That you don't know what you got 'til it's gone?

    They paved paradise and put up a parking lot

    Ooh, bop-bop-bop

    Ooh, bop-bop-bop

    Hey, farmer, farmer, put away your DDT

    I don't care about spots on my apples

    Leave me the birds and the bees

    Please!

    Don't it always seem to go

    That you don't know what you got 'til it's gone?

    They paved paradise to put up a parking lot

    Ooh, bop-bop-bop

    Ooh, bop-bop-bop

    Listen, late last night, I heard the screen door slam

    And a big yellow taxi took away my old man

    Don't it always seem to go

    That you don't know what you got 'til it's gone?

    They paved paradise to put up a parking lot

    Ooh, bop-bop-bop

    I said don't it always seem to go

    That you don't know what you got 'til it's gone?

    They paved paradise to put up a parking lot

    They paved paradise to put up a parking lot

    They paved paradise to put up a parking lot

    And we changed the prefix

    Everybody knows

    That we used to be six wives

    But we want to say

    Before we drop the curtain

    Nothing is for sure

    Nothing is for certain

    All that we know is that

    We used to be six wives

    But now we're one of a kind

    No category

    Too many years

    Lost in history

    We're free to take

    Our crowning glory
