I'm happy about this. I enjoyed the show when I saw it last summer. Have been hoping to put "Pretty Funny" on my iTunes, and soon I will be able to. Yay, Lindsay Mendez!

Okay, I have to admit I was underwhelmed with the show as a whole when I saw it. It had a lot of interesting and inventive songs, and some great performances, but it didn't really come together for me in the way that I wanted it to.
But, now listening to this cast album, I wish I could have seen it again and given it another chance. This music is just fantastic. I'm loving it!

This is my favorite new cast recording in a while. The cast is excellent and the score is very catchy. I'm loving all the songs with the guys and Derek Klena's voice is so purdy. And so is he.
