juOnBox Music 12: Rent Original Motion Picture Soundtrack



They’ve staged Jonathan Larson’s Rent in the Philippines twice, the last one included Jay-R and Iya Villania in the cast. The movie version also came out which starred among others Rosario Dawson. My interest was never piqued until this morning when my friend let me listen to the song Without You from the original motion picture soundtrack. I’ve read the plot and the musical’s interesting history. Now I wanna see the film.

Without You

MIMI
Without You
The Ground Thaws
The Rain Falls
The Grass Grows

Without You
The Seeds Root
The Flowers Bloom
The Children Play

The Stars Gleam
The poets dream
The Eagles Fly
Without You

The Earth Turns
The Sun Burns
But I Die
Without You

Without You
The Breeze Warms
The Girls Smiles
The Cloud Moves

Without You
The Tides Change
The Boys Run
The Oceans Crash

The Crowd Roars
The Days Soar
The Babies Cry
Without You

The Moon Glows
The River Flows
But I Die
Without You

ROGER
The World Revives

MIMI
Colors Renew

BOTH
But I Know
Only Blue
Lonely Blue
Within Me, Blue
Without You

MIMI
Without You
The Hand Gropes
The Ear Hears
The Pulse Beats

ROGER
Without You
The Eyes Gaze
The Legs Walk
The Lungs Breathe

BOTH
The Mind Churns
The Heart Yearns
The Tears Dry
Without You

Life Goes On
But I'm Gone
Cause I Die

ROGER
Without You

MIMI
Without You

ROGER
Without You

BOTH
Without You

Movie isn't that great, because it loses some of the edge of the play. Still a good watch.

I don't recall Jay-R being in the cast of the last RENT prod. Must be Footloose.

Nice blog, btw!

@ billycoy. Yeah I'm lovin the soundtrack. I like Seasons of Love and Without You. :-)

@ Closet Queer. Thank god somebody's paying attention! :-) I'm sorry I got it all mixed up. So obvious how I'm not so into the theatre thing. Salamat dude! And thanks for the compliment.

i like RENT.

in fact, any musicals or theatre productions with nice a story and interesting plot.

Wicked is my new passion, though.

juOn said...
