I JUST GOT THIS DVD FOR CHRISTMAS AND HAVE REALLY ENJOYED IT.
ITS A MUSICAL MADE IN 1992 BUT SET 1899 IN NEW YORK WHEN THE NEWSIES (BOY THAT SELL PAPERS) WENT ON STRIKE BECAUSE THE PAPER COMPANY IS RASING THE AMOUNT OF MONEY THE NEWSIES HAVE TO PAY IN ORDER FOR THEM TO BUY THE PAPERS THEY NEED TO SELL.

-CARRYING IN THE BANNER
-SEZIE THE DAY
-KING OF NEW YORK
-THE WORLD WILL KNOW
GO ON YOUTUBE AND TYPE IN NEWSIE(NAME More...

Look, I don't care that Newsies is just a piece of melodramatic fluff with sort of dumb-sounding lyrics...laugh at the plotline all you want, but I still like the music! It gets me hyped up...lots of power chords...mixed with 1920's jazz...mmmm...

Guys who can sing and dance and who look good, too? Every young girl fell in love with this musical. And the songs were really fun, too. They're also hard for me to play.
