Smash Music: Pilot (S01E01)

I'm not sure if I'll be posting this weekly just because I still don't have a constant contributor/source of songs from this show unlike Glee. I'll do my best to somehow find a way on how to work around this, but for the meantime enjoy the Pilot Episode Music.

Beautiful
I love how restrained this version is and how subtle some of the notes with terrific choice of vocal inflections. Katharine McPhee just didn't go all out especially towards the end and that's what I appreciate about this version. Not so much of the vocal theatrics, but the feeling. 8/10

National Pastime
This song has really grown on me. I enjoy that there's character to this tune and it's undeniably Marilyn Monroe, thanks to Megan Hilty's solid vocal performance.7/10

Let Me Be Your Star
Wow. This song blew me away. Seriously. Both Katharine and Megan gave brilliant vocals. The orchestration was outstanding, which sounds every bit Broadway. Katharine McPhee has a modern R&B almost pop flair in her phrasing, but that somehow worked in this song. Amazing. 10/10

Thanks, but why don't you zip up all the songs for Smash and Glee (like you did in the past) anymore?

Because I don't have time to do it anymore. I'm too busy and this is the best effort I can give. Is it too much of an effort to download it per song?
