    I’m so glad this video is on UA-cam again. Megan is soooo good in this performance!

      Same! I was obsessed with this song and devastated when I couldn't find the video anymore.

    Amazing talent. Looking past her, undeniable, musical chops she doesn't move a muscle - no matter how small- without heartbreakingly brilliant intention. Bring back cabarets to the masses! Live music is important. Megan Hilty and this song makes that need obvious.

      Your need. Her talent is overshadowed by a theme in the world and "hollow wood." NO SCRUPLES. She portrays a manipulative bi$ch & it's accepted. What does that say about you? (Rhetorical.)

    The field was bright with clover
    I saw the finish sign
    I started as a rover
    And then victory was mine
    I thought the race was over
    But they just keep moving the line
    They cheered at my persistence
    But prayed for my decline
    The path of least resistance
    Led to Hollywood and Vine
    I tried to go the distance
    But they just keep moving the line
    I jumped all of the hurdles
    To break out of the pack
    I started on the outside
    And then hit the inside track
    I left the other fillies
    Back at the starting gate
    Was ready, on my mark, I got to set
    To hurry up and wait
    So talent and ambition
    Won me a chance to shine
    I aced the big audition
    But it's rainin' on Cloud Nine
    Can't beat the competition
    'Cause they just keep moving the line
    I handled every corner
    Each bump along the track
    And when I saw the ribbon, well
    There was no turning back
    I won the photo finish
    I posed for all the men
    But before I got my trophy
    Well, the race began again
    So I made friends with rejection
    I've straightened up my spine!
    I'll change each imperfection
    Till it's time to drink the wine!
    I'd toast to resurrection
    But they just keep moving the line!
    Please give me some direction,
    'Cause they just keep moving the line

    I don't like or care for musicals. But this song hits every point of my brain and being. This show wasn't something I would have watched. The only reason I did, was because Debra Messing was in it. My first though was, "Oh, Katharine McPhee..." This show was amazing, and I'm sad that it was cancelled. Megan and Katharine, true honest talent. Each time my day doesnt go 'according to plan" I play this song and it isnpires me.

    This is my favorite song from SMASH. However, did anyone see a horn section? I definitely heard horns, but they weren't there.

      I feel like lots of musical shows do that. The instrumentation that you hear is more robust than what you see onscreen. Smash does it pretty frequently, and so does Glee.
