- All the singers are spectacular. NPH is awesome, of course, but watching the show, I didn't get a total feel for the quality of Nathan and Felicia's singing. Felicia is wonderful and sounds even better melding her tone with someone else's in a duet, and Nathan was so adept at "acting" the obliviousness and self-absorption of Captain Hammer, you lost sight of his vocals. He's damned good.
- The "Bad Horse Chorus" (both versions) still makes me laugh out loud.
- You also get a better feel for the lyrics and just how incisive, witty, poignant and character/story driven they are. You can read them here.
- The songs are endlessly re-listenable. I cycled through them twice just now, and was entertained the entire time.
- And did I mention the "Thoroughbred of Sin?" Hee. That still cracks me up.
