When I try and download it I only get the first 5 seconds, dont suppose anyone could send me the file, my emails jdavies201@hotmail.com

> As per usual, a (brief) scene description...

> A short (piano/vocal only) version of this song is first
> sung early in Act 1. In the previous scene, Joker carries
> out a vicious robbery at a Halloween charity ball and in
> the resulting hullabaloo, Bruce Wayne saves Selina Kyle's
> life. Their eyes meet and a spark ignites, before she
> flees into the night.
>
> Cut to the next scene...Bruce returns to Wayne Manor as a
> storm starts (hence effects) and is greeted by Alfred
> (dialogue here). He retires alone to his library (stage
> left) and in front of a roaring fire, staring out at the
> lightning storm, he sings the first verse only, 'nobodies
> ever made me feel like this...' As the verse ends, stage
> left is dimmed and stage right is slowly lit to reveal
> Selina Kyle with umbrella, under a street lamp somewhere
> in Gotham. She sings verse 3 only, 'there was a time when
> I felt nothing at all...' As her verse ends, both stage
> left and right are lit and they duet one chorus only. They
> stare off in different directions and do not look at each
> other (they are in different locations). Stage then goes
> dark.

> Towards the end of act 4 (my version has specific acts 1 &
> 2, interval, then acts 3 & 4), a longer version of the
> song is reprised by Batman & Catwoman (verses 1 & 3 are
> swapped). High above Gotham on a gargoyled rooftop, they

> down' in each others arms to street level.

> As the song ends, a long lingering kiss is bathed in
> glorious moonlight, before stage is engulfed in a dark
> evil rouge. Shrieks and howls then echo from all
> directions, 'demons' emerge from 'shadows', and a final
> confrontation slowly starts to revv....
