Somewhere That's Green is missing the instrumental bridge during Audrey's fantasy sequence ( where she waters the plants, interacts with animated birds and hosts a Tupperware party).
Grow For Me has a shorter intro and is missing mid-section orchestrations where Seymour realizes that Twoey wants blood.It's Michelle Weeks ( Ronette) who sings the opening solo in Skid Row (Downtown) (leading to persistent rumors that she dubbed actress Bertice Reading in the film), Donny Gerrard sings most of the male lines, and there are other vocal inconsistencies throughout the song.Prologue (Little Shop of Horrors) begins with ominous narration by Bill Mitchell, as opposed to the comical narration by Stan Jones that opens the film.Here's a rundown of the notable differences:
In addition to omitting Suppertime II and the (originally deleted) reprise of Somewhere That's Green, virtually every song deviates from the versions featured in the film. Additionally, a radically different version of " Some Fun Now" was recorded by the cast as a demo, and other demos may exist for " A Salute to Vegetables" and " Thundercrash" (which was ultimately replaced by " Some Fun Now").
FEED ME GIT IT KARAOKE TV
Menken was taken aback when Miles Goodman was nominated for a "best original score" Golden Globe, and he made it a point to compose future film and TV scores for his works, though (like director Frank Oz himself) Menken was not asked to participate in the creation of " The Director's Cut."Īt least three additional songs were recorded for use in the film but have never seen the light of day: " Your Day Begins Tonight", " Crystal, Ronnette & Chiffon" (each composed and recorded for potential use during the end credits), and Levi Stubbs' rendition of " Bad" (which was replaced by " Mean Green Mother" after the film's production was well underway). Lyricist Howard Ashman and composer Alan Menken were tied up with other projects and had no direct involvement. Robby Merkin, who orchestrated the original Off-Broadway production, pulled double, triple and quadruple duty, receiving a variety of credits on the album and overseeing the production in England.
In addition to outright omitting " Suppertime II" and Miles Goodman's orchestral score, there are drastic musical and lyrical deviations in every song except " Da-Doo." The reprise of " Somewhere That's Green" was not included in the theatrical cut and would have seemed out of place on the album, but they included a severely truncated chorus version of " Don't Feed the Plants." Several singles were issued, including two different remixes of " Dentist" (" Edit" and " Dub") and at least three variations of " Mean Green Mother From Outer Space." Feed me! Feed me! Feed me! Feed me, Seymour Feed me all night long That's right, boy You can do it Feed me, Seymour Feed me all night long 'Cause if you feed me, Seymour I can grow up big and strong Would you like a Cadillac car? Or a guest spot on Jack Paar? How about a date with Hedy Lamarr ? You gonna git it How'd you like to be a big wheel Dinin' out for every meal? I'm the plant that can make it all real You gonna git it I'm your genie, I'm your friend I'm your willing slave Take a chance, just feed me and You know the kinda eats The kinda red hot treats The kinda sticky licky sweets I crave Come on, Seymour, don't be a putz Trust me and your life will surely rival King Tut's Take some initiative, work up the guts And you'll git it I don't know.The album was originally released on CD, cassette tape, vinyl record, and it's now available digitally.
