[quote="imekitty"]MYEEEEEEH, okay, Babkak et al. can be in it.  I would just be concerned that they would be distracting (kind of like Genie was in KoT), but if we have to have them, then okay.  (Maybe we should have one of them dating Sadira?  Haha.)

I wouldn't want them to be there when Aladdin finds Cassim for the first time, though.  I think that would make it less meaningful?  I'm glad Genie wasn't there for that reason.  I like the idea of them being the ones to convince the sultan to let Aladdin off the hook.  It would make sense...perhaps it would involve a big song and dance?  :b  Or perhaps they're the ones singing "Forget About Love" instead of Iago?  Which prompts Jasmine to break Aladdin out, and then the sultan is forced to let it all go because he can't have his daughter arrested, too?  That would definitely give Jasmine more of a part, too, more of her own internal conflict.

If Iago meets Cassim in the dungeon, then that means he won't have a big role until that point.  Are we okay with that?  Or is there some other way to work him in earlier?  Maybe he knows about the Oracle (from Jafar; I'm sure Jafar would've known what it was right away?), so they need his help to figure out how to work it?

I do like Father and Son a lot, actually.  :3  And I like the scene when Genie meets Cassim for the first time.  Always makes me laugh.

Aw, I'm glad you like my lyrics!  I tried to make them as poignant as possible.  The only line I don't really like is this one:

[i]What being abandoned would be like for her[/i]

The meaning is good, and I like how it reflects the line from the original lyrics, but the rhythm isn't right (something to do with the word "abandoned").  :/  So, if you have an idea to make this line sound better but have the same meaning, that'd be neat.

Not happy with the word "fade" either.  It implies that he'd be going away gradually when it would actually be sudden.  "Vanish" would be better, but that's too many syllables.  So, again, if you have a better idea for this that would still work with "thin air."

And yes, Brad Kane does seem to be doing some writing now.  I've seen some of Fringe, but not any of his other stuff.  But honestly, I just want him to go back to singing.  I adore his music (am I the only one, though...?  I guess it is kind of melancholy stuff, but I just love it).[/quote]
