Ellen Greene sings “Somewhere That’s Green” at the 50th NYFF
After a screening of the director’s cut of Frank Oz’s LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS at the 50th New York Film Festival, actress Ellen Greene surprised the audience with a performance of “Somewhere That’s Green” on the stage of the Walter Reade Theater, accompanied by composer Alan Menken!
“In His Eyes” from JEKYLL & HYDE (S. Korea)
2 reasons why this is possibly the best version of this song ever:
1. The two actresses have completely different singing styles (classical-ish vs mostly straight-toned/raw). These two styles directly relate to the social classes of the characters they play (Emma = upper class, Lucy = lower class).
2. Do you HEAR that orchestra? You’ll have a hard time finding a recording of this song with a better orchestra than the one this production had. Simply fantastic.

“If You Only Knew” from Jekyll & Hyde
This song for Emma (sung by Brandi Burkhardt) was featured in the 2005-06 Jekyll & Hyde: In Concert tour and also appears on the 2006 Resurrection album. However, it is not part of the 2012 broadway revival and hasn’t been included in any other productions to date.
