I love you, Rachel Bloom.
(cheering) Ra-ta-ta! (shouting) (cheering) Hello, Los Angeles.
(cheering continues) (laughing) Oh, my God.
You guys kind of made me tear up.
(whooping, cheering) WOMAN: We love you, Rachel! West Covina (wild cheering) California In my soul I feel a fire 'Cause I'm headed for the pride of the Inland Empire Actually, it's not in the Inland Empire It's in the San Gabriel Valley I should have taken five seconds to Google that Before I wrote the first song of the television show (cheering, applause) My life's about to change Oh, my gosh.
'Cause I'm hopelessly Desperately in love with Everybody West Covina (cheering, whooping) And also, by coincidence So random, just by chance Who'd-a thunk it? So remarkable and weird, right? It so cray (Bloom gasps, laughs) That this guy Josh Just happens to be Here (audience cheering) (song ends) (cheering, applause) BLOOM: Welcome! Welcome! (cheering continues) Um, so, tonight, we are so excited to present to you just some of the 157 songs that we - (cheering) - I know, I know Uh, from the Crazy Ex-Girlfriend songbook.
"Songbook" was their cue, so that was very important.
(audience cheering) Yes.
Yes.
Now, uh, because this whole concert has to air in 42 minutes on The CW, we have to be very expeditious, so I am going to both introduce the show and change into my next outfit.
This is my dresser, Tommy Marquez.
(cheering, applause) He's single.
Um (laughs) See? I'm helping.
Um, Tommy has seen me naked many times.
Many times.
Um, if Tommy had a nickel for every time he'd seen my nipples, he would have an answer that I can't say because it was redacted by Standards and Practices for being too dirty of a joke.
I like how I'm behind a changing screen, but the balcony can see everything.
(cheering) So, now, I'd like to introduce my two Crazy Ex-Girlfriend songwriters.
On bass, say hello to Jack Dolgen.
(cheering, applause) And on the piano, Mr.
Adam Schlesinger.
(cheering, applause) And now I am changed.
(cheering, applause) Coming up is a song that manages to be both feminist and anti-feminist at the same time.
("Let's Generalize About Men" begins) Here's your jacket, bitch.
Right now we're angry and sad It's our right to get righteously mad At every member of the opposite sex Oh, God, we hate them Let's not distinguish between them at all Let's just drink a lot more alcohol And then high-five each other As we make a bunch of blanket statements Let's generalize about men Let's generalize about men Let's take one bad thing About one man And apply it to all of them Let's conflate all the guys Let's generalize About men Ooh, it's, like, "I have a beard.
" Ugh! All men are completely repressed Uh-huh All men only want to have sex There are no exceptions All three billion men are like this All 3.
6 billion men All men are emotionally stunted When asked how they feel, every man's always grunted And why do men never listen And only think about themselves? As opposed to women, who always listen And never think about themselves Ooh, I hear you, girl Let's generalize about men Let's generalize about men Let's get super lit And not admit This is some kind of primal ritual We need now and then Maybe our spirits will rise if we Generalize about men All men are stupid and childish Even the ones who are "smart and mature" All every man does every day Is watch porn, eat wings Burp, fart and snore (audience cheering) Hey.
What about gay men? (cheering fades) Oh, no, they're fine.
Gay men are all really great Every single one They're never mean Just sassy They're all completely Adorable and fun So let's focus for now on straight men Let's just generalize about them They're all monsters They're murderers They're rapists - Totally - Wait.
I have sons.
Your sons are gonna be rapists.
(cheering) All right, uh, we'll be right back after I clean up all the glitter.
Oh (laughter) (cheering) Anyone want to, um you guys want to Okay, dare to defy.
(cheering) We'll be back.

- Yeah.
What, um what specific charity did you donate to? What were the names of the specific charities? (laughter) Children.

(cheering) ("I'm a Good Person" begins) I'm a good person, yes, it's true I'm a good person, better than you I'm a good person, can't you see? Doctors Without Borders don't have nothing on me I'm a good person, and if you ask why I'll spit my good right into your eye Everywhere I go, I spread such bliss And if you don't think so, you can kiss My ass Which is made of good I'm a good person, that's my thing My nickname is Mother Teresa Luther King I'm a good person, get it straight And when I say "good" I really mean "great" The best.

(laughter) Okay, just in case we need it for broadcast, I need you both to say, "You're a good person," just in case it's not clear.
Say I'm a good person, or I'll put you in a nursing home.
And it'll be a bad nursing home, too.

(cheering, applause) When I was a little girl I felt like a princess So naive and full of hope I thought my dreams would come true But then as I grew The world was all like (chuckles) "Nope" (laughter) But this time, maybe just maybe (cheering) Maybe this dream Won't lead to disgrace Maybe this dream Is in reach Maybe this dream Won't poop on my face Like a seagull At the beach Maybe this dream Won't be like when I go running And I have to take a dump So I have to rush home Plus I also have my period So I have menstrual cramps Plus dump cramps And as I run frantically I pee Just a little Because I've had two babies So by the time I get home My undies smell like a sewer rat Maybe this dream Won't be Like that (cheering) Maybe this dream Will finally make me Feel Like I Deserve A Dream (cheering, applause) Ah.

- Om! (cheering, applause) You know, um, Crazy Ex-Girlfriend We have a lot of fun, but really, it is, at its heart, an earnest tribute to the art of musical theater.
(laughter) (cheering, applause) From Gilbert and Sullivan to Hamilton.
We've done neither of those genres.
(laughter) So when we sat around and we thought, let's do an actual, inspirational musical theater song, we could think of no one better to do it justice than Miss Vella Lovell.
(cheering) No.
Yeah.
So, no.
So, Rachel, I'm actually not a musical theater person at all.
Um, actually, singing and dancing - makes me V uncomfortable, so - ("The Moment is Me" playing) Oh, okay, Adam.
Uh, guess you could just force me to sing a song that I don't want to What does the future hold? What will tomorrow No.
Bring me Don't Dave Will be told Please don't dance okay.
What song is gonna sing me - I'm gonna do it.
- No okay.
This is my time to shine, step out of the line Throw open all the windows Wow.
Might be an uphill climb, but I just got to find What's at the end - What ? - Say it.
- No, no, I don't - Say "rainbow.
" - Of this rainbow - Yeah! 'Cause the clock just keeps on ticking It doesn't care that time goes by You're just following me, okay.
The clock knows its destiny So why don't I? Where'd you learn this dance? 'Cause today's tomorrow's yesterday Can't let the future slip You're psychotic.
Can't wait to meet whoever I will be What was that? 'Cause I am the moment The moment is me David is the moment David is not the moment.
This is literally my moment, it's the title of the song.

David Hull, everyone.
David Hull, ladies and gentlemen.
- (song ends) - Thank you! David Hull, everyone! VELLA: Oh, Lord.
(cheering) RACHEL: So, I think one of the most gratifying things about doing this show is having people tell us, um, that-that sometimes, they see things in the show or hear songs that make them feel, uh, a little less alone.
Um, but what you might not know is, it's kind of the same thing for the songwriters and-and the writers, too.
There are certain songs you write, uh, and lyrics that you write or pieces of dialogue you write that you're like, "Ugh, am I the only one who's felt this? Am I, like, the weirdo? Is this gonna go over well?" And so just know when you say that you feel less alone, you make us feel less alone.
- (cheering, applause) - Really.
(intro to "The Darkness" playing) In my life, I've had so many men But there's one I come back to again and again We've been on and off For such a long time And now he's back And I'm feeling oh, so fine He's the darkness My first love, my true love The darkness He knows me better than anyone He holds me close and whispers things That I don't want to hear When I feel the butterflies of dread I know the darkness is near Well, Rebecca - (cheering, applause) - You've done it now Yeah, you guys know this one.
Karma's come to tap you on the shoulder All that lying that's been festering Plus breaking and entering Is coming now to crush you like a boulder You ruined everything You stupid bitch You ruined everything You stupid, stupid bitch You're just a lying little bitch who ruins things And wants the world to burn Bitch You're a stupid bitch And lose some weight (cheering) You ruined everything You stupid bitch Sing with me!

(song ends) (loud cheering) ("I've Got My Head in the Clouds" begins) (cheering, applause) I've got my head in the clouds 'Cause that's where heaven is No longer stuck in the muck on the ground I figured out how to live It's with my head in the clouds Got no cares anymore No obligations are holding me down That's what religion is for My puzzle is solved 'Cause I'm absolved My life will be splendid now that I've transcended When things get scary, just say ten Hail Marys I'm Turin off my shroud - ("Angry Mad" begins) - (grunting) Angry! Feeling bad! (grunts) Why do I feel this way? Angry! Mad! My heart is hurting! And it feels bad! (cheering) (grunts) Bad! (song ends) (cheering, applause) ("I Hate Everything But You" begins) The smell of the water, kids screaming with joy I've hated crap like that since I was a boy While everyone was laughing and having so much fun I would mutter "This sucks" till the day was done I detested most stuff and I still do You see, I hate everything but you I hate the feeling of the sun when it hits my skin I don't like bands that have a guy on mandolin I hate when people post pictures With the hashtag "mood" I hate when people call blueberries a superfood I hate when people say, "Ooh, it's magic hour" Or when people actually stop and smell a flower I hate white women who call their engagement rings "Bling," oh, yes I hate everything but you I hate the phrase "Love conquers all" And I hate that it's true 'Cause I want to not hate things when I'm with you You love so many things and you have so much fun It makes me wish my hating days were done And there's one thing I want you to know I'll always Hate guys who name their cars.
