Last year I had the fortune of seeing Avenue Q on stage (it was only in Sydney for 2 weeks), but it was only on Saturday that I managed to track down the soundtrack at JB Hi Fi.
I'm currently listening to it on repeat, and I just have to share it with everyone who will pay attention to me. For those who don't know, Avenue Q is sort of like an adults version of The Muppets- there are puppets: but they are rude, lewd and crude. It is an insanely funny musical with lots of little truths that most people wouldn't admit like Everyone's A Little Bit Racist; mixed with little life lessons like There's a Fine, Fine Line, which deals with the dilemma of just exactly when non-reciprocated love becomes a waste of time.
I think I would have to say that my favourite song from the whole thing is The Internet Is For Porn- I definitely don't agree, but the melody is just so catchy and the lyrics are too amusing!
Just a word of warning- the content of this song is quite lewd and there is a decent amount of swearing, and I understand that not everyone shares my sense of humour. However, that being said, I watched the stage production with my mum and she enjoyed it immensely, so I hope you like it too:
