I know this is probably very random of a topic, I wasn't too sure if it should have been made here or in The Cafe (again, a slap to the wrists if I did this wrong.) But just for fun, I figured what if Being Human was a musical (crazy I know), what songs from existing musicals could you see the Being human cast / characters having or singing? Obviously modified to fit them but this is just for fun.
The comical side of me just buzzes through when i read this. It would be entertaining to see Tom (Michael Socha) singing "When i grow up" from Matilda the musical. xD . . . sorry. . . i can't think of any serious songs. With deep meanings.

Great topic idea Yorke! this seems the perfect place for it
The idea of a BH musical has been mooted amongst fans before, I love the idea of more singing and dance moves from Hal. for me it is hard to get past Hal singing Puttin On The Ritz to think of other tunes! But surely they'd need to be original ones, written specifically for the musical?!
but how about Hal singing 'The Impossible Dream'? (Man Of La Mancha)
To dream ... the impossible dream ... To fight ... the unbeatable foe ... To bear ... with unbearable sorrow ... To run ... where the brave dare not go ... To right ... the unrightable wrong ... To love ... pure and chaste from afar ... To try ... when your arms are too weary ... To reach ... the unreachable star ...
This is my quest, to follow that star ... No matter how hopeless, no matter how far ... To fight for the right, without question or pause ... To be willing to march into Hell, for a Heavenly cause ...
And I know if I'll only be true, to this glorious quest, That my heart will lie will lie peaceful and calm, when I'm laid to my rest ... And the world will be better for this: That one man, scorned and covered with scars, Still strove, with his last ounce of courage, To reach ... the unreachable star ...
'Out of your Dreams' (from Oklahoma) by Hal and Alex! lol! or Hal singing a version of 'I dreamed a dream ' (Les Miserables)
When I grow up ahaha aw poor Tom, he's the being human Peter Pan!
Love those suggestions Domino! just for giggles, an altered version of "What is this feeling?" from WICKED could be Hal and Tom initial meeting song. Considering how well they got along.
How about Alex singing 'I'm Just Wild about Harry'
I'm just wild about Harry And Harry's wild about me The heavenly blisses of his kisses Fills me with ecstasy
He's sweet just like chocolate candy Or like the honey from a bee Oh, I'm just wild about Harry And he's just wild about me
Now, I'm just wild about Harry And Harry's wild about me The heavenly blisses of his kisses Fills me with ecstasy
Say now, he's sweet just like chocolate candy Or like the honey from a bee Oh, I'm just wild about Harry And he's just wild about Cannot do without He's just wild about me
