Fade in on a girl With a hunger for fame And a face and a name to remember The past fades away Because as of this day Norma Jean's gone She's moving on Her smile and your fantasies Play a duet That will make you forget Where you are The music starts playing, It's the beat of her heart saying Let me be your star Flashback to a girl With a song in her heart As she's waiting to start the adventure The fire and drive That make dreams come alive They fill her soul She's in control The drama, the laughter The tears just like pearls Well theyre all in this girls repertoire Its all for the taking And its magic we'll be making Let me be your star I just have to forget the hurt that came before Forget what used to be The past is on the cutting room floor The future is here with me, choose me Fade up on a star With it all in her sights All the love and the lights That surround her Someday she'll think twice Of the dues and the price She'll have to pay (She'll Have to pay) But not today (But not today) She'll do all she can For the love of one man And for millions who love from afar I'm what you've been needing It's all here and my heart's pleading Let me be your star
Dude, you are a lifesaver! I loved the song from the first time I heard it, and now I get to sing it my own way without having to battle with the 2 vocals. Thanks so much!
i love that u made this!!! Its my favorite song in smash and i am so happy that someone played it on piano so well :) You can give this song a run for its money! :)
WOW.Great job. I just finishing watching all two seasons of Smash on the DVD set. Some of the best musical theater music I've ever heard. Shaiman & Whitman are spellbinding. Loved the songs from Smash far more than Hairspray. The entire production was fantastic, though the story line may have strayed too far from season one. I got the whole new Broadway vrs old Broadway, but the "Hit List" songs, though well written by other writers, were not in the same league as the Shaiman & Wittman songs.
@NBCSmashOfficial Thank you for the comment! What did you mean by "use" it? feel free to post a link or something to that effect on your channel if you want, or did you have something else in mind?
Oh, I just thought of this, could you do a version that does not incorporate the melody, so that the vocals can sing the melody? I would really really really really appreciate it! Really. If not, it's still cool to have an awesome arrangement to rehearse with.
I love your arrangements and I constantly sing to this!! LOVE IT! Is it possible to have an arrangement for "Don't Forget Me" from the season finale of Smash?! THANK YOU!
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE do second hand white baby grand. Also if you feel like it, there is not tutorial of how to play that song on youtube...it would be so awesome if you made one!
You're amazingly talented, I saw most of your videos and I gotta say, WOW! I wonder if you do it only by ears.... i wish I could play as good as you...
Have you seen the newer episodes? In Episode 12, Ivy sings "Second Hand White Baby Grand" at the end of the show, and it's to a piano arrangement. Do you think you could figure out that one. And the cover Ivy does of "Crazy Dreams" too... You are incredibly talented to come up with this yourself.
This is perfect!!!! Cause the other guy that played this song made it go just a little faster, so it was throwing me off, but you did it beautifully!! Thank you!!!!! Can I use this for my cover? I'll give you credit ^_^
would u mind recording 20th century fox mambo,never met a wolf who didnt love to howl,lets be bad,and national pastime my friend and i r doing a smash showcase
Fade in on a girl With a hunger for fame And a face and a name to remember. The past fades away Because as of this day Norma Jean's gone, She's moving on. Her smile and your fantasies Play a duet That will make you forget Where you are. The music starts playing It's the beat of her heart saying, "Let me be your star."
Thank you so so so much. Simply outstanding.
Masterfully done. Bravo.
Fade in on a girl
With a hunger for fame
And a face and a name to remember
The past fades away
Because as of this day
Norma Jean's gone
She's moving on
Her smile and your fantasies
Play a duet
That will make you forget
Where you are
The music starts playing,
It's the beat of her heart saying
Let me be your star
Flashback to a girl
With a song in her heart
As she's waiting to start the adventure
The fire and drive
That make dreams come alive
They fill her soul
She's in control
The drama, the laughter
The tears just like pearls
Well theyre all in this girls repertoire
Its all for the taking
And its magic we'll be making
Let me be your star
I just have to forget the hurt that came before
Forget what used to be
The past is on the cutting room floor
The future is here with me, choose me
Fade up on a star
With it all in her sights
All the love and the lights
That surround her
Someday she'll think twice
Of the dues and the price
She'll have to pay (She'll Have to pay)
But not today (But not today)
She'll do all she can
For the love of one man
And for millions who love from afar
I'm what you've been needing
It's all here and my heart's pleading
Let me be your star
I loveeeeeeeee this song so much . . thanks for this beautiful piano arrangement . .

thank you for this video! my dad used your music to figure out how to play this on my piano so he could video tap me. Thanks soo much!
Oh, I just thought of this, could you do a version that does not incorporate the melody, so that the vocals can sing the melody? I would really really really really appreciate it! Really. If not, it's still cool to have an awesome arrangement to rehearse with.

Fade in on a girl
With a hunger for fame
And a face and a name to remember.
The past fades away
Because as of this day
Norma Jean's gone,
She's moving on.
Her smile and your fantasies
Play a duet
That will make you forget
Where you are.
The music starts playing
It's the beat of her heart saying,
"Let me be your star."
