Today is World Tourism Day and you just heard The Beatles with the title song to their TV Movie Magical Mystery Tour. Today we are going to take a “tour” of some foreign countries so that you can get a sample from shows you might see if you were to really travel to these countries.
First we are going to travel to South Korea where you might see a production of Maybe Happy Ending. The music is as charming in the original Korean as it is in English. Here are the songs “The Way It Has to Be” and “Where You Belong” from Maybe Happy Ending.
Today is World Tourism Day and we just travelled to South Korea to hear the songs “The Way It Has to Be” and “Where You Belong” from Maybe Happy Ending.
Next we travel to Japan where we might get to see a production of the classic hippie rock musical Hair. Not knowing Japanese, try to guess what these two songs are. Here are two songs in Japanese from the musical Hair.

Today is World Tourism Day so we’ve been traveling the world listening to songs from musicals that you might hear on your trip.
We’ve already been to South Korea and Japan. Our next stop is Germany. There you might get to hear an original musical called Sherlock Holmes: Next Generation. In this musical, Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson assist a group of young sleuths in solving a mystery. Full disclosure, Sherlock Holmes is played by my cousin. From Sherlock Holmes: Next Generation, please excuse my German pronunciations, here are the songs “Ein Fall fur Sherlock Holmes” and “Dein Bild”.
You just heard “Ein Fall fur Sherlock Holmes” and “Dein Bild” from the original German musical Sherlock Holmes: Next Generation, a show you could possibly see if you took a trip to Germany.
A show that I know you could see in Germany is Andrew Lloyd Weber’s Starlight Express where it has been playing for 35 years in a theater expressly built for this show where the actors are on roller skates. From Andrew Lloyd Weber’s Starlight Express, here are the songs “Licht Am Ende Des Tunnels” and “Er allein”.

Our next stop on the tour is Spain where you might get to see a Spanish production of A Chorus Line. From the Spanish cast recording of A Chorus Line, here are the songs “Yo Lo Se Hacer” and “Lo Que Hice Por Amor”.
You just heard “Yo Lo Se Hacer” and “Lo Que Hice Por Amor” from the Spanish production of A Chorus Line and yes, that was Antonio Banderas you heard in the recording as he co-directed, produced, and starred in the show.
Also co-directed, produced, and starred in by Antonio Banderas was the Spanish production of Stephen Sondheim’s Company which you also might get to see. From the Spanish production of Company, here is the title song and the song “Las Damas Que Almuerzan”.
