Me too T~T I was kind of hoping that they would do English versions of all of the songs, and maybe put them out in an album. But that's probably too much to hope for.

Luckily, the English songs were embedded in the website in mp3 format. Grabbed those up while I could.

The whole thing is really cool. If they put out an English-language album, I'll absolutely pick it up.

Weren't there English versions of all the songs because the show was originally written in English? Wish they hadn't taken them down.

You can still access the English versions if you go to the file directory for February, they're all the sound files for that month. You can also still find them at YouTube. I'm pretty bummed. I was hoping they'd release enough to make an album. But at least we now have some footage of the musical. Rem's song When Love Comes, the one we heard in English already, hasn't lost any charm so that's nice.

The title of that song is called "Stupid Love." For Rem's song...I think it's weird, honestly. But they may have changed the translation for the Japanese version.

I also grabbed all of the songs from the website too. Mad

I really-really love how "L desu" sounds Very Happy That scene is really good Smile Also, where Ryuku is dancing in the background, that is priceless Anime hyper
As for the others, I still have to get use to how different the songs sound; the English ones are cool Smile

As for Rem's song, I just... don't get it. It's a "bit" too much for the character.

What in the world is Ryuk supposed to be doing? He's a God of Death and yet he is running around dancing in a love song! What a nut! Laughing

I really hope that this gets a DVD and/or Blu-ray release. I've loved what I've seen of the Japanese actors performing and love the English songs. Seeing the floor's stage, I'm curious how that will be used in the production.
