La Vie Boheme


La Vie Boheme

Rent

Rent was arguably one of the most popular musicals of the late '90s. (It also won a Pulitzer Prize for drama, which is a very rare honor for anything on the Broadway musical scene.) There are many great tunes throughout the show - this is just one of them.

If you aren't familiar with the show, it is a modern retelling of Puccini's opera La bohème, integrating contemporary topics like poverty, homosexuality, HIV/AIDS, and drug addiction. It remains the ninth-longest running Broadway musical of all time.

Happy listening!
