Post by bunniefuu »

We're all from West Covina!

This is my favorite TV show.

I love you, Rachel Bloom.

Ra-ta-ta!

Hello, Los Angeles.

Oh, my God.

You guys kind of made me tear up.

We love you, Rachel!

Welcome!

Welcome!

Um, so, tonight, we are so excited to present to you just some of the 157 songs that we...

I know, I know...

Uh, from the Crazy Ex-Girlfriend songbook.

"Songbook" was their cue, so that was very important.

Yes. Yes.

Now, uh, because this whole concert has to air in 42 minutes on The CW, we have to be very expeditious, so I am going to both introduce the show and change into my next outfit.

This is my dresser, Tommy Marquez.

♪ He's single. ♪ Um...

See? I'm helping.

Um, Tommy has seen me naked many times.

Many times. Um, if Tommy had a nickel for every time he'd seen my nipples, he would have an answer that I can't say because it was redacted by Standards and Practices for being too dirty of a joke.

I like how I'm behind a changing screen, but the balcony can see everything.

So, now, I'd like to introduce my two Crazy Ex-Girlfriend songwriters.

On bass, say hello to Jack Dolgen.

And on the piano, Mr. Adam Schlesinger.

And now...

I am changed.

Coming up is a song that manages to be both feminist and anti-feminist at the same time.

Here's your jacket, bitch.

♪ Right now we're angry and sad ♪

♪ It's our right to get righteously mad ♪

All right, uh, we'll be right back after I clean up all the glitter.

Oh...

Anyone want to, um... you guys want to...

Okay, dare to defy.

We'll be back.

You know, during that last commercial break, while you were all... going to the bathroom or getting drinks or... probably fornicating... um, I was actually backstage, uh, donating money to some very worthy causes.

Wow, Rachel. Yeah.

That's amazing. Yeah.

What, um... what specific charity did you donate to?

What were the names of the specific charities?

Children.

What's the, uh... what's the tax ID number of Children?

Let's just do the stupid song, okay?

No.

Okay, just in case we need it for broadcast, I need you both to say, "You're a good person," just in case it's not clear.

Say I'm a good person, or I'll put you in a nursing home.

And it'll be a bad nursing home, too.

Say it. Say I'm a good person.

You're a good person. I'm a good person.

Did you still say "I'm a good person"?

Dad!

Dad!

Dad!

Say it. You're...

Itchy Cat, can you help me sweep?

Please?

Itchy Cat?

Let's sweep together. Come on.

Yeah, just sweep it there.

Thank you so much.

You know, maybe I judged yeast infections all wrong.

Thank you so much.

This is a metaphor for something, but I don't know what.

Oh.

Hello. I...

I totally saw you there.

You know... when people think of Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, one word comes to mind.

I'm talking about...

"sex."

Ooh!

Did you all just collectively shudder at that nasty word?

That's right, "sex."

"Doin' it."

"A special hug."

"Half past hump o'clock."

And so we here at Crazy Sex-Girlfriend... ha!

We've prepared for you a little... sex medley.

You know, um, Crazy Ex-Girlfriend... We have a lot of fun, but really, it is, at its heart, an earnest tribute to the art of musical theater.

From Gilbert and Sullivan to Hamilton.

We've done neither of those genres.

So when we sat around and we thought, let's do an actual, inspirational musical theater song, we could think of no one better to do it justice than Miss Vella Lovell.

No. Yeah.

So, no. So, Rachel, I'm actually not a musical theater person at all.

Um, actually, singing and dancing makes me V uncomfortable, so...

Oh, okay, Adam.

Oh, Lord.

So, I think one of the most gratifying things about doing this show is having people tell us, um, that-that sometimes, they see things in the show or hear songs that make them feel, uh, a little less alone.

Um, but what you might not know is, it's kind of the same thing for the songwriters and-and the writers, too.

There are certain songs you write, uh, and lyrics that you write or pieces of dialogue you write that you're like, "Ugh, am I the only one who's felt this?

Am I, like, the weirdo? Is this gonna go over well?"

And so just know when you say that you feel less alone, you make us feel less alone.
