The music is just great.
And Mark Shaiman and Scott Wittman are such great
songwriters.
And they're perfect for this, perfect for
this type of musical.
I remember being in their studio, in their apartment.
And we were trying to figure out what the dance break was
gonna be like for the number.
And it was just so surreal.
Mark put headphones on me, and stood me in front of a
microphone, and said, just hum what you think it's gonna be.
And he would play the track.
We would listen to the last vocals.
And then, it would go into the dance break section.
And I just remember standing there humming what I thought
the dance break should sound like to Mark Shaiman, which is
just ridiculous.
So some episodes will have maybe two or
three original songs.
Some might have one original song.
It really depends on what the writers call for.
Smash will premiere Monday, February 6, 10:00 PM after The
Voice on NBC.
It's very exciting.
That's all I can tell you.
