Baby (musical)

Baby is a musical with a book by Sybille Pearson, based on a story developed with Susan Yankowitz, music by David Shire, and lyrics by Richard Maltby, Jr.. It concerns the reactions of three couples each expecting a child. The musical first ran on Broadway from 1983 to 1984.

Synopsis

Three couples, each newly expecting a child, have different but familiar reactions. Lizzie and Danny are university juniors who have just moved in together. Athletic Pam and her husband, Nick, a sports instructor, have had some trouble conceiving. Arlene, already the mother of three grown daughters, is unsure of what to do, contemplating abortion while her husband Alan is thrilled with the thought of a new baby. Throughout the show, these characters experience the emotional stresses and triumphs, the desperate lows and the comic highs, that accompany the anticipation and arrival of a baby.

Musical numbers

"Baby, Baby, Baby (Reprise)" was replaced in the initial run and the original cast recording with the song "Patterns," wherein Arlene contemplates her circular life as mother and wife.

    Sister (Sergio & The Ladies song)

    "Sister" was the Belgian entry in the Eurovision Song Contest 2002, performed in English by Sergio & The Ladies (Serge Quisquater, Ibernice Macbean, Ingrid Simons and Jodi Pijper).

    The song was the sixteenth performed, following Bosnia and Herzegovina's Maja Tatić with "Na jastuku za dvoje" and preceding France's Sandrine François with "Il faut du temps". At the close of voting that night, it had received 33 points, placing 13th in a field of 24.

    The song is an up-tempo number inspired somewhat by American contemporary RnB music, with Sergio singing in praise of attractive women and their style of dancing.
