#AlternateFridayMusic April 11 2025 the word is "Horrible"
Composer: Andrew Lloyd Webber
Album: Cats Soundtrack (Original London Cast) (1981)
Song: Mungojerrie & Rumpelteazer

Then the family would say, "It's that horrible cat
But was it Mungojerrie or Rumpelteazer"
And most of the time
They'd leave it at that
My parents were big into theatre when I was a kid, and as a result we had a lot of musicals in our music collection. "Cats" was one of my favourites as a kid, and this was one of my favourite songs.
I was dismayed when I saw it live and they'd ruined this song! Given it a new stupid melody. Yuk. Give me the original any time.
"I Don't Know How to Love Him" is a song from the 1970 album and 1971 #rockOpera #JesusChristSuperstar written by #AndrewLloydWebber (music) and #TimRice (lyrics), a #torchBallad sung by the character of #MaryMagdalene. In the opera she is presented as bearing an #unrequitedLove for #theTitleCharacter. The song has been much recorded, with "I Don't Know How to Love Him" being one of the rare songs – after the 1950s.
