I am as musical-theater-averse as any pre-menopausal adult woman, or fuck it, any sane human. So when I read a blurb of a track and hear that it's got a drama theme (warning) and then listen to it and it's actually a bit stunning and start to love it, I get a little upset and confused.The thing is, I have gone back and listened to "I Am Certain" a couple times and its B-Side "I Don't Believe" and for all the tiny spikes that set my teeth on edge there are some really brilliant bizarre flecks and unexpected drones amongst the beautifully played and scored main parts, and this somehow makes it OK. This makes it something I can love without worrying it's a short, slippery skid on my ass till I find myself weeping in the front row of Jersey Boys. I hope.
