The number continues to build before the eyes of the audience into an unbeatable showstopper, complete with top hats and canes. SONG OF ME (Woman #1) This song for a young girl is all about one’s need to establish a personal identity while waiting for life to start. TODAY IS THE FIRST DAY (Woman #1, #2) Now, the future is just within reach for the two women, and in this song they physically grasp for it. Though they are not without fear, they are so full of anticipation that their words come out hushed and breathless. Ready or not, they are diving into life head first. A NEW LIFE COMING (Cast) This song is based upon the Doppler effect, the scientific phenomenon that makes you hear a change in pitch when you pass a source of a sound, like a train whistle or a station bell.
