Saturday: The Red-Headed Stepchild

Yes, I know we technically had a cop-out day this week, but that's because I was extremely pressed for time.

Tonight, I just feel like not doing an in-depth post, haha, so I think from now on, every Saturday will be...

COP-OUT SATURDAY.

Where I post a handful of my favorite songs from other musicals and all of your horizons are duly broadened and expanded because of it.

Here we go!

Cornered [Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney]

(This is actually a rock remix, not the actual song.  I like this one better, though.)

Stickerbush Symphony [Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]

Again, not technically the original, but this Brawl remix is close enough to the original for it to still be beautifully nostalgiac.

Rainbow Road [Mario Kart 64]

The N64 iteration of Rainbow Road may be my favorite (because I can't navigate that Wii steering wheel worth anything...)  Hopefully you all remember this gem of a game.

That's it for tonight, see you tomorrow for something legitimate!

Maybe.

The Beginning

Actorman here, starting up a blog of his very own!  How exciting!

Basically, this blog got its start in my mind when I learned that if you write it on the internet, people will probably read it, and I have a lot of things to talk about (or sing about, if we get to that point later in this blog).

I'm the Head of the Phoenix Wright: Musical (found here at http://megalomaniacalme.net/pwmusical), and decided that so many other video games can lend themselves to musicals, I think mostly in terms of Final Fantasy, but there are surely plenty of other ones out there.

This is gonna be brainstorming for me, and you can give input as far as the ideas, what game you want to be brainstormed, and what you think.

Merging my two great loves together, musicals and video games, was practically inevitable.

So here, I will discuss video games, their soundtracks, an occasional musical soundtrack, and the blend of the two genres into one unstoppable mega-genre.  Oh yeah.  Things are gonna get crazy!
