Basically you mean "forgive my laziness". Try google. Or Bing. Or failing that, get some inspiration from www.darwinawards.com. Wouldn't be overly suprised if you end up on failblog.org then however.

It wasn't buy the rights, but use classical music for a Phantom show.

Wasn't it Hal Prince and Cameron Macintosh that suggested he'd write the music?
Also, it was mentioned not too long ago that Steinman was asked to do the lyrics but declined because he was commited to produce an album for Bonnie Tyler. Your attention span rivals a New York second.
