The Best Greatest Showman Songs Based On Scene (Again)

SPOILER ALERT!

The Best Greatest Showman Songs Based On Scene (Again)
Vogue

Welcome back to the sequel of "that Greatest Showman article" you read last week because you were bored and it popped up on your timeline. If you haven't read the preceding article at hand, my profile is just a click away. The last article covered the top three, but this week I'm adding three more.

4. The Other Side

My personal favorite song off the soundtrack.

First of all, this song takes place in a bar, where P.T. is trying to convince Phillip to take his shot at the circus from his current pretentious lifestyle.

HIS SHOT.

IN A BAR.

I am amazed at the least. The English major in me was stunned at first sight.

The glasses are continuously being thrown around the table, for Phillip to take, such as the offer being thrown his way.

Eventually, Phillip takes this shot, and a partnership is created.

Regardless, Zac Efron and Hugh Jackman singing together is a recipe for success.

5. Rewrite the Stars

Where the epitome of love barriers is addressed, almost deja-vu in relation to P.T. and Charity Barnum.

Their struggles are displayed in the circus ring, calling on the exact problem from society about the two being together - the circus.

They're both trying to hang onto the rope, or their hidden admiration for each other, and Phillip literally helps her go through hoops, such as their relationship would in real life.

Different variations of the two hanging on to each other to try and make it are displayed throughout, another reference to the hardships of a potential relationship.

Did I mention Zendaya did her own stunts during this? Legendary.

6. This Is Me

Empowerment: a definition.

Being in a circus is essentially looked at as a group of outcasts coming together to amaze people at what they can do, and also make them thankful they do not share similarities.

The bearded woman in the show displays she is no longer embarrassed by what she cannot change - a character progression from the beginning of her career, when she could hardly come out from behind the curtain.

The circus crew as a whole finally comes to terms with who they are, and don't care what the world has to say. The group even openly performs in the middle of the chaos surrounding people who relentlessly criticizes them.

Not to mention, Anne doesn't show Phillip any mercy while looking at him during the performance - she isn't what society would want her to be, and doesn't care for the "swells" approval to make her worthy.


Three more scenes before The Greatest Showman comes to a close, but you won't be disappointed.

The first two weeks of classes have come to an end and they have been anything BUT easy. It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

Although this seems like the best solution, it is also the easy way out. Take it from the girl who took basically a whole week off from her life because she just could not handle everything that was being thrown at her. This caused her to feel extremely lonely and even more stressed out for being behind in classes that JUST began.

11 Things We Learned From Brooke Davis

"What's more important? What we become or how we become it?"

Brooke Davis

"She was fiercely independent, Brooke Davis. Brilliant, and beautiful, and brave. In two years she had grown more than anyone I had ever known. Brooke Davis is going to change the world someday, and I'm not sure she even knows it." - Lucas Scott, An Unkindness of Ravens

Brooke Davis of the hit show One Tree Hill was the it girl - she had it all, or so we thought. She started out as a stuck-up, shallow, spoiled, head cheerleader who didn't have her life together. She slept around a lot and loved to party - sounds like your typical high school teenager right? Wrong. B. Davis had so much more to offer. Caring, loyal, and outspoken, she has taught us some valuable lessons throughout the 9 seasons that OTH was on the air:
