I had nothing to do, so I wrote down the lyrics for my students. LOL I’m walking down Curtis, I hope it’s her street, if it’s not then I’m screwed I’m gonna be late and it’s gonna be rude. And I am gonna pretend to like Indian food. I’m walking down Curtis, Growing more nervous the longer I wait It’s just one night, it’s just one date. But she thinks I’m cute and I think it’s great! And I wish I could fly, yes, I wish I could Fly, Yes I wish I could fly with you. I’m walking down Curtis, I’m not coming back so here is my key. If you don’t know you then you don’t know me And though you’re not blind, you sure can’t see. I am walking down Curtis, When do you go when your home isn’t yours When it’s just four walls and all locked doors. Where what you give, she ignores. And I wish I could fly, yes, I wish I could Fly, Yes I wish I could fly don’t you. I’m walking down Curtis, The street and the shy are the same shade of gray, How long have I stayed away? And if we met what would you say? I’m walking down Curtis. Funny the things that your memories can do. They chase the words, tall you what’s true and paint the past on something new. And I wish I could fly, yes, I wish I could Fly, Yes I wish I could fly to you. I’m walking down Curtis. I’m walking the street and this is my heart. it fell for you, then it fell apart. But it knows you must finish what you start! I’m walking down Curtis, I’m here, and here, and here And I’m here to stay, If you hear me now if you give me today, I will warm your night and hear you say I wish I could fly, yes I wish I could fly, For here on the ground, in my arms, I have found the reason why… I wish I could fly! Fly, Fly Fly!
I sang this for MT back in 2015.. almost 10 years ago… I’m here in 2024 still listening. Yes, that high belt was HARD. But where there’s a will there’s a way! This song pushed me vocally and mentally. I will ALWAYS listen to Natalie 🔥🔥🔥
How do you think someone would feel if you called them “Billy” when their actual name is “Tim” or a “she” a “he”? One honest mistake is fine, but constantly misnaming someone (even if they aren’t trans) is not ok, it’s disrespectful. I know this as someone who’s name has been mispronounced multiple times. And you used “they” in a way that can be singular or plural, so it’s also good. It’s basic human decency, which is important, so please try to respect people, and improve mistakes, as we all do, and use names correctly, cause you wouldn’t like it if someone misnamed you constantly, even after correcting them.
@@ValpCreates "They" is used to refer to a rhetorical person or someone whose gender is unknown. "Non-binary" is nonsense. These people do not deserve respect.
This happened while I was getting my BFA at a school in Texas and we were OBSESSED. Somehow I still know the words 17 years later, and it’s been a joy to follow the careers of so many people in this video!
So demented and perverse you are. “Sex” and “gender” have always meant the same thing. They have always been synonymous terms. You are manipulating words and definitions to fit the worldview of your objective delusion.
Honestly though, what theatre kid/dancer HASN'T wanted to dance down the hallways of an empty departement store, like the space, the acoustics, that would be so fun!!
3:02 i wonder if andrew was in his costume and with his crutch when they all went out, since he's not in the song.. i mean i dont think he was in costume when they were in the empty macys...
I listened to this song on repeat 15 years ago and it still holds up!!! Such an incredibly writen song, and such an amazing vocal performance too. Just wow!
