Across the Universe

Although this blog is about music I have decided to change the "usual" routine and write a little about musicals. For all musicals lovers (like me ) who loves Across the Universe, Rent, Moulin Rouge,Mama- Mia, Phantom of the Operah and others YOU WILL LOVE THIS NEXT POSTS!! ENJOYY!!



I´m going to start with Across the Universe, a musical composed ONLY by Beatles songs. Even though most people think musicals are cheesy and as brazillians say "brega" Across the Universe is different. First of all it is based on one of the world´s most famous and best bands EVER- The Beatles. Secondly it has more of "life" situations not really MOVIE FANTASY (involves war, death, love), and third and lastly ITS JUST GREAT!!! I love this musical and it is DEFINETLY one of my favorites ( Have seen it like 10 times). If you haven´t seen it yet go NOW to a video store and rent it, I guarantee you won´t regret!



Since the songs on the movie iare all from The Beatles, i dont have to say that they are great right? We all know how good their songs are, and in this musical the versions of the songs are evn better! I have hem ALL in my ipod and i NEVER get tired of listening to them... I know you know them all but here are the ones that are sung beautifully in the movie:

• Across the Universe


• Strawberry Fields Forever


• Dear Prudence


• All My Loving


• Dear Prudence


• Hold me Tight


• I am the Walrus


• Let it Be


• All You Need is Love


• Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds


• Hey jude


• With a Little Help From my Friends


• Come together


• I Want You (She´s so Heavy)


• If I fell


• Revolution


• It won´t be Long


• I Want to Hold Your Hand
