Great Songs From Lousy Musicals: "Get Out And Stay Out"
Here's where the title of this segment gets put to the test. I loved "9 to 5: The Musical" when I saw it, but other people didn't. Looking back on it now, I can see the flaws that they were pointing out, but the show was still so much fun that I didn't (and still don't) care. This is the big 11 O'Clock Number from the show. One of the biggest issues with the show for me, especially now, was the music. I loved it then, and I love it now, but it's for different reasons. All of the music itself is good, but the lyrical content is severely lacking. There's a lot of use of slant rhyme and repetition. There are also points where you can kind of tell the Dolly was having trouble coming up with lyrics. While this song does suffer from some of those problems, the power and performance overcome those issues to make it great. The song is sung by Judy (played on the cast album by personal favorite Stephanie J. Block), who, up to this point, has been somewhat shy and withdrawn. She was used to be walked on and taken advantage of, and this song is her finally growing the backbone she so long desired. The song starts out slow and, as I've said before that most songs should do, grows more powerful as Judy becomes more confident. Stephanie J. Block jokes that she created a new audition for girls, and that could not be more true. This is pretty much the quintessential 11 O'Clock Number. The whole soundtrack is good, but this is the one that brings the house down.
Imagine:
Staying at Dolly’s for the night as you can’t stand your man. You just need to have some girl talk with your best friend.

Cracking jokes and having dinner with your friend Dolly after the duo concert y’all had together.

Josh
Aight I’m in 9 to 5 and I’m playing Josh Newstead. I decided to see if Tumblr had anything on Josh Newstead, it does not. So I am making a post about Josh Newstead in order to fill the void.
I like him, he smokes weed, wants an Atari 2600, got his drivers license, and just wants to see his mom be happy.
He’s a bro, also I feel like he would grow up to be like RJ from Power Rangers Jungle Fury.
Thanks for enduring this for me.
Screw it
I’m posting about 9 to 5 the musical again because that show was fun to run.
Specifically there was this one line where Judy says, after believing that Violet poisoned Hart, “We’ll pick up Josh and make a run for the border.”
First of all what border?
Second of all, how is there not a fic of the Judalet trio and Josh on the run from the authorities and going on fun adventures?
Like seriously that sounds awesome. Again though which border?

Putting these in alphabetical instead of Top 12 order so not to skew the results.
You know, I say I support communist thinking. Have I read the communist manifesto? Fuck no its boring and too long, but I have listen to Dolly Partons 9 to 5 since I was 6 so it evened out.
