Posted June 21, 200817 yr Here are the songs, in order, from GWTW. [edit] Musical numbers Act I Born to be Free On Your Land Mrs O'Hara's Prayer Good Time Good Cheer She's No Lady Softly Come Join the Troops The Very Best People I'm Your Man Scarlett O'Hara Again Can This Be All? I'm Your Man (reprise) Gone With The Wind Act II Born to be Free (reprise) Desperate Times Nobody Knows You I'm Gonna Find My Own On Your Land (reprise) Wings of a Dove Reconstruction Planning Just Two! Once Upon a Time Every Child Once Upon a Time (reprise) Alone Mrs O'Hara's Prayer (reprise) Gone With The Wind (reprise) When the musical opened, it contained two additional songs in Act II: "Abundantly Present" and "Eternity of Shame". These, and several reprises, were cut in May 2008.[citation needed] JUST TWO http://www.dariusworld.org.uk/images/Just%20two.jpg Why have I descended into mindless games like these I can live the life I choose and do just as I please I don't give a damn how I'm perceived But I could never have believed I'd never stand the saddle and the rein You would lie beside me while you dreamed of Ashley's arms You know it's true. If I can ban his ghostly presence Cast a spell upon your charms This pathetic creature Spinelessly arcane Slithers through our lives and where he passes Leaves a stain Gone are all the simple pleasures that we both once knew By God it's wrong. With all he's taken what has Ashley ever given you Hopelessly inept at life He covets someone else's wife And cannot move even to prove he lives Now we must contest with what this faithless coward has tried to do I'll tell you how Tonight in bed my dear Instead of three you'll find there'll be Just two. Once Upon a Time http://www.dariusworld.org.uk/images/Once%20Upon%20A%20Time.jpg Once upon a time An angel came to Georgia To teach the people there How they can care again. Once upon a time She brought the sun to Georgia And broken hearted people learned to smile again. Once upon a time Just with her laughter, she saved my soul and made me whole for ever after Once upon a time, Once upon a time, my Bonnie Blue. ALONE http://www.dariusworld.org.uk/images/Alone.jpg ( Jill ) Ask me how I feel I feel as if my life has turned to stone Where once my heart had wings I feel the cage is empty now the bird has flown From this country where the silence is profound From this well of darkness much too deep to sound This place that I have come to know and feel Is called alone ( Darius ) Forgiveness is divine But nothing will and nothing ever can atone The nightmares come again Just like a fate I have no power to postpone I try to change but I remain the same Rearranging all the letters of your name But nothing can release me from this prison called Alone ( Both ) I never cared before Or wanted so to give But now my joy's no more ( Darius sings " is gone") Where is the will to live? So this is what I feel An emptiness like nothing I have known Where peace of mind is something I must follow But could never hope to roam When nothing that I do relieves the pain Or can once?erase your image from my brain ( Both sit down ) I'm condemned to live my life Here in this hell that's called Alone. Gone With the Wind Reprise http://www.dariusworld.org.uk/images/last.jpg The life I used to know is gone And gone beyond recall But how the flames were fanned I really do not understand at all But what I learned from this and learned the hardest way Is that Tomorrow is another day How can we reach the light In darkness where we live How can we make a future Be a gift we want to give Can blessings not be shared Will that day ever come When freedom reaches every life Not just the lives of some We should recall the past Though it must not return It forged the chains that held us down. and so we all must learn To make a better world Whoever may have sinned The future calls, the past is Gone, Gone, Gone, Gone with the wind Edited August 2, 200816 yr by SpamFritter
June 21, 200817 yr That was the Ashley song that was cut. When Scarlett is told about the taxes she walks to find Ashley in the Ochard. This was a long scene and Ashley's only solo number. The cut down scene doesn't involve the wooden platform or the song. It is a song I don't miss at all.
June 21, 200817 yr Scarlett sang before the proposale after Frank died. I'm sure Darius sang a solo in the second half right at the begining-meaning April 5th ....wish I could turn back time and take more notice Edited June 21, 200817 yr by SpamFritter
June 21, 200817 yr There was just so much to watch that it was impossible to absorb everything. Scarlett's bit within 'On Your Land' was cut and I really liked that.
June 23, 200817 yr ..............because part of Dr Martin's slant on GWTW was to take the subplot of the emancipation of the slaves and move it centre stage ?
June 24, 200817 yr ith a character who was a waste of space both in the book and film? People are people regardless of colour. Prissy was a selfish spoilt brat.
June 26, 200817 yr I did. I just didn't feel it was relevant. I thought she was a really good actor with a good voice but, the part wasn't anypone I recognised from the book.
June 26, 200817 yr I have to say i didnt like her voice that much, the first time we saw the other girl(who plays the other girl slave with the headscarf, I prefered her voice,
June 26, 200817 yr Scarlett sang before the proposale after Frank died. I'm sure Darius sang a solo in the second half right at the begining-meaning April 5th ....wish I could turn back time and take more notice Wasn't Nobody Knows You always a solo song?
June 26, 200817 yr It was. We both feel there was another one with it though - but neither of us can remember what.
June 26, 200817 yr Darius did his Lincoln and then he wasn't on until the jail scene when I saw it first.
June 26, 200817 yr We're talking about 5th April. It had changed by the 7th and a lot of things had gone. If we'd have known it was going to be cut so soon, we'd have taken notes instead of watching it.
June 27, 200817 yr I can't even remember if I liked it. They improved I'm your man...they had him dancing like Billy Flynn with a stick the first preview. The song was altered as well I think. I have to say I don't like the lyrics in the second bit of 'I'm your man' when he was talking to Scarlett. He sang them well but they were a bit....doh
