Is this thread strictly for Frozen rewrites, or can requests be made for other musicals/films/plays/whatever?

'Cuz I have one that may be a bit of a challenge, and I'm no good at this sort of thing myself.

we can extend it. sure!!

Okay. I'd like to see what you could do with Jesus Christ Superstar (the film version, although if you'd rather do the original rock opera album version - there are differences - that's fine, too).

Edit: Just thought of this, but I'm a huge Rush fan, and doing something with 2112 might be interesting.

Also, while typing the edit, I Don't Know How to Love Him from JCS just popped up on my iTunes.

Once rose and I finish all the "Frozen" stuff (which we almost are...) I can see what we might be able to do.

My fingers are already twitching for a Lester and Michelle edition of "I Don't Know How to Love Him" and an Honor edition of "Superstar" - no! Bad Rose!! *hauls self back to "Love is an Open Door" rewrite*

Oh Tester protect me!!

my Exec/ friend...

has she gone mad??

no wait, I think we're already mad...

*slaps self hard.

now for some of the "original" deleted songs... (I still think they count...)

"more than just the spare" -Shannon Foraker, Ashes of Victory

Im not an Admiral,
a leader of the Fleet,
just someone whose job
makes Haven's ends meet,
She's my friend, my President, CO,
I'm the screw-up (don't I know it)
but who would ever compare...
Of course 'Loise would think I'm just the spare...
but I don't care!

So I'm the extra missile in the queue,
waiting for her chance to fight,
but if I'm seen as a loose warhead,
why can't I be a warhead that's used right? (oops!)
I may not get PRH social grace
and once in a while I fall on my face
but this MDM deserves to go to war
and vanquish Manticore! (no, bad Shannon, remember Honor??)

So I'm the extra cruiser in Reserves,
waiting for her spot in the wall
and I'll be reserved forever, just wishing one more of our ships would fall...
so maybe I forget the word "citizen..."
or maybe I err on the side of fun,
but every ship must see action somewhere...
this CL is more than just the spare!

Someday I'll find my thing
A thing that's on my own
That thing that makes me part of something
Not just all alone
If only all this feeling I have in my heart
Could mean something to someone, how I'd love to play that part

So I'm just a Havenite tac-witch
Who most of the Fleet ignores
Like a missile, like a CL,
(Like a girl who's bad at metaphors!)

Maybe I don't have a CO's touch
And maybe I don't have a talent as such
Just this heart with much too much to share
So I'll never be the heir, but I'm more than just a spare!!

(presses key...)

The fleet explodes. Shannon looks demurely over her display.
