Manage episode 288913337 series 2822816
As we continue our annual Sondheim-a-palooza, this time focusing on his pastiche numbers, we come to "Losing My Mind" from Follies. This challening and deeply beautiful show is celebrating its 50th anniversary and seems as powerful as ever. Join Erik and Shannon as they try to figure out why this beatiful, simple song is such a gut punch.
All clips are from the (sadly truncated) 1971 Original Broadway Cast Recording featuring Dorothy Collins and are used in accordance with the Fair Use Exemption for criticism and commentary.
