For the 909767 time!
many viewers have written they're disappointed that "hopelessly devoted to you" isn't in this book, and neither is "you're the one that i want"... well, sorry.. you should have bought the movie version. I've been in the production many times, and its not there. "you're the one that i want" is replaced with "all choked up" [...]

I love it!
Uh, "You're the One that I Want" and "Hopelessly Devoted to You" are not in the original musical... but the music's nice. I love "mooning!!!"

What's up, Chicago...
Um, "Hopelessly Devoted to You" is not in the musical... I was disappointed because I cannot find the music to "Since I Don't Have You" anywhere... and we're doing Grease this year, and that song isn't in the script... But Broadway does it. We just cannot find it anywhere.

Great Book, be careful...
Great book, however it may be misleading. i was fairly dissapointed when I found that Hoplessly Devoted was not a song included in this songbook. Considering that was a major song of the movie I somewhat assumed it would be there. Otherwise the other major songs are all here and sound great. Great book, and a must have for grease lovers.

Duh
Duh, you need Grease. Great songs for auditioning. Great songs in general. Its like an American must to have seen and love Grease. Only problem with this book is that the keys are mostly all difficult ones for the voice.

Classic Broadway Feeling
Yes, the movie does have a nice, light, memorable feeling to it, but the classic Broadway feel of Grease can only be accomplished by the actual Broadway show. This book is great to understand and to appreciate the Broadway show better; Which I prefer after purchasing this book!

Classic
This is a classic hit broadway that should be shared universally throughout this book of music. I learned many songs and have auditioned easily with the book. Many noteworthy songs include "Freddy My Love" and "Greased Lightning." Overall, I give it four stars.
