Katharine McPhee & Megan Hilty- Let Me Be Your Star
I've always held a soft spot for musicals and when you combine that and a TV show along with the tragic beauty of Marilyn Monroe with that's a hit. Well what do you know they did that with Smash and the original songs of the show quickly found their ways into my music library, with this song coming in on my overall top 25. Both Katharine McPhee and Megan Hilty alone have fantastic powerful voices and are different in their own rights. Katharine's holding a sort of more 'Pop' like soft quality while Megan's is very 'broadway' strong and powerful with the glutteral push and this song shows that. The song alone is one that gives off that power of bringing down the house that big songs in musicals have (Defying Gravity) but it still gives that repetitiveness and contrast that makes it easy to sing along to.
