Nothing much was happening during this scene, but this song made everything pause and have a moment of contemplation. A small favourite of mine out of all the other songs.
All of the songs of this musical are phenomenal and my favorite of the trilogy, and while I know that this is the staple musical number that is supposed to be for comedic effect, I can't help but really feel something with this one. Like, this gives me both insight on this fun make believe wife in the musical and Ruth as a character. I can't help but feel like Ruth really felt no purpose in her life, no real hobbies, identity, not because she lacks one but because she's a teenager going through so much change, she's not sure who she is. And it parallels well with a teenager trying to figure out who she is and a housewife who wish she found out who she was sooner.
i adore this song so much,, its so underrated!! it gives so many falsettos vibes and it really stands out from the rest of the soundtrack in my opinion
