No, I never realized that at all. Especially with the Ballad of Billy McCaw.
Or to move away from CATS, the various canon versions of Think Of Me in existance....
I wish I had access to the OLC CATS.... *o*
...also, I should not want to burst out into Of The Aweful Battle of the Pekes and the Pollicles Together With Some Account of the Participation of the Pugs and the Poms and the Intervention of the Great Rumpus Cat right now.... (Though I do wish it were on more recordings... and not cut as often from the stageshow....)
PS: WAS there a "new number written for the movie" at all? I keep on trying to compare with different versions and the above song seems to be the only thing I can come up with that's not in most RECORDINGS, but I have photographic evidence (http://www.chapters.indigo.ca/books/Cats-Book-Musical-T-S-Eliot/9780156155823-item.html) that the song is nothing new. ...and why did they leave out Growltiger's Last Stand? It's a lovely number.... (Timothy Scott singing in that song makes me very happy......)
