Why you should catch We Will Rock You
1) Because there is great music by Queen (with a top-notch band) and excellent story & script by Ben Elton with a superb cast and background singers/dancers who would easily beat Hady or Taufik, no sweat.
2) Because the lousy introductions by cheap magazines does the musical zero justice.
3) Because leading the cast is MiG Ayesa, one of the top 3 finalists in INXS' search for their new frontman. Two words: Awesome dude. (Who by the way is my new semi-idol.) (I sound like a Native American who worships totem poles.)
4) Because it proves that entertainment can have very clever wit. So clever even stuck-up big-nosed ang mohs laughed. "It's not your fault you're a big crybaby... INXS didn't let you join them, boo hoo." "Although I have yet to uncover the exact date on which the music died, it is clear to me that an ancient entertainment phenomenon known as American Idol played a central role.")
5) Because it is definitely not as corny as the title may suggest, and even Singaporean elements have been included to please the audience ("That's all there is, the rest of the tape is just an episode of a show called Phua Chu Kang.")
"Me? I'm the biggest, baddest, meanest, nastiest, ugliest, most raging, rapping, rock'n'roll, sick, punk, heavy metal psycho bastard that ever got get-down funky. They call me - Victoria Beckham."
