Edvard Munch 'The Scream' and Stephen Sondheim's 'Follies'!
In this video I’m singing one of the most beautiful and poignant songs by Stephen Sondheim, ‘Losing My Mind’ from the musical ‘Follies’. This song is so full of nuance and pain. It reminds me of the painting ‘The Scream’ by Edward Munch. Both of these artists, Stephen Sondheim and Edvard Munch, depict internal suffering so accurately and viscerally.
As always, I would love to hear your opinion! Please let me know what you’re thinking in the comments down below!
Accompaniment: I got the accompaniment from an app called ‘Appcompanist’
Lyrics:
The sun comes up, I think about you.
The coffee cup, I think about you.
I want you so, it's like I'm losing my mind.
The morning ends, I think about you.
I talk to friends, and think about you,
And do they know, it's like I'm losing my mind.
All afternoon, doing every little chore
The thought of you stays bright.
Sometimes I stand in the middle of the floor
Not going left, not going right.
I dim the lights, and think about you.
Spend sleepless nights, and think about you.
You said you loved me, or were you just being kind?
Or am I losing my mind?
I want you so, it's like I'm losing my mind.
Does no one know, it's like I'm losing my mind.
All afternoon, doing every little chore
The thought of you stays bright.
Sometimes I stand in the middle of the floor,
Not going left, not going right.
I dim the lights, and think about you.
Spend sleepless nights to dream about you.
You said you loved me, or were you just being kind?
Or am I losing my mind?
It's like I'm losing my mind.
