Bui Doi

4/14/2019

There was a time in my life where I lived and died by what I considered good musicals.  My favorites were Les Miserables and Miss Saigon-  both world famous musicals by the same French composer and lyricist, Claude-Michel Schönberg and Alain Boublil.  I listened to Miss Saigon as a teenager so often that I exhausted my need to ever head it again.  

Regardless, one of the catchy tunes from "M.S." is being blogged about at this very moment!

This is "Bui Doi" which is apparently a Vietnamese word for "Dust of Life" referring to the children in Vietnam born to a Vietnamese woman and an American Soldier, which more than likely has abandoned her.  


Blah blah blah.  This show is sad.


Here's the song.
