Let Me Be Your Star performed by Megan Hilty & Katharine McPhee
Written by Marc Shaiman & Scott Wittman
From the albums The Music of Smash & Bombshell
Hearing this song come on my iPod today made me long for the "Pilot" episode of Smash. Let's face it, the second season was not good, with only a couple of episodes standing out from the seventeen broadcast. The first season was in comparison way better, but still had a couple of really rough episodes. However, the first one will always be the best. It felt like it was setting us up for an amazing show with great characters to care about. Both Megan Hilty and Katharine McPhee are excellent here (the latter's solo performance of Christina Aguilera's Beautiful is breathtaking). This duet though between the two ladies is the cherry on top of the sundae. Let's all raise our glasses to Smash: this song, the pilot episode, and to what could have been a great show had it not gotten fucked with :)
