Wow. I kept reading about how Alan Cumming had revolutionized the character of the Emcee in Cabaret, but I was never aware of just how much he contributed to the role until today. Out of curiosity, I dowloaded Joel Grey's (original Broadway and the film) "Wilkommen" and was shocked at the results. Grating, annoying, flat, and utterly dull, dull, dull. I immediately had to play the New Broadway version to restore my faith in the song. I reinterate Alan's godlike status. And if anyone disagrees with me, I will punch them in the face because they are WRONG. If someone could harness the energy Alan generates in his theatrical exploits, I don't think North America would ever have to worry about blackouts again. The man is mesmerizing.

Meanwhile, <3333 to Luke, who burned the first seasons of "Clone High" and "Invader Zim" for me. ::takes a moment to shake her fist at Eugene, who after 4 months still has the Invader Zim 1st and 2nd seasons that Seej burnt for her::
