Me a few years ago: oh Russian literature musical!
Me every day since then: DID I SQUANDER MY DIVINITY? WAS HAPPINESS WITHIN ME THIS WHOLE TIME?

Musical Theatre Song Contest: Round Three A
Submitter’s propaganda under the cut
Dust and Ashes
an absolutely heart wrenching, soul crushing, horrifying ordeal of looking back and realizing your life isn’t what you’d always wanted it to become type of song. no matter which Pierre is singing it, each actor has a certain way of expressing the depressing grief the character is feeling and truly makes you feel as though you’re singing this song of sadness and remote, far away hope with the actor themselves and everyone else in the theatre.
If you’ve never lit some candles and lay in your room listening to this song you’ve never experienced the depth of human emotion.
The first song in musical theater to feature a character’s reckoning with himself that he forgets by the time intermission ends
Haunting, moving, captured the frantic need of human connection yet being unable to grasp of successfully. It's Dave Malloy who's a legend. Most captivating song out there as gives you chills every time.
Chant
It matches perfectly to my walking speed and it's so fun to listen to while walkin around. You ever go up the stairs while listening to this song? Unparalleled
The combination of the defining themes of the musical over a kick-ass chorus. If you wanna keep your head ohhhh you gotta keep your head low…

All of my life I spent searching the words of poets, and saints, and prophets, and kings
And now at the end, all I know that I've learned is that all that I know is I don't know a thing
[id: Stede Bonnet from OFMD, dressed in Pierre Bezukhov's clothing from Great Comet. His hands are raised and he's holding a bottle of alcohol in his left hand. He's sporting a beard and curled up moustache, but is missing Pierre's spectacles. /end id]

so funny story right in the middle of summer, during the peak of my musical theatre interest, i was super into great comet of 1812, specifically the song dust and ashes, and i would literally listen to it like 3 times in a row, so i put it on repeat while i was on a plane, and ended up falling asleep and i listened to dust and ashes like 50 times in a row so moral of the story is josh groban rocks

There is nothing more relaxing than drawing frightened Jekyll and writing lyrics to "dust and ashes"

actually Dave Malloy was so sick and twisted for writing dust and ashes. he should have known what that would do to me.
