Paul Williams - Blog Posts
You know what? I love this. I hope that the writers put that amount of thought into the show and the characters.
It also occurs to me quite suddenly that a future Batman writer is going to have Batwheels as their first introduction to the characters. That is going to be interesting...
Well, I didn't expect Batwheels to reveal that Penguin is apparently a singer. Or that he got music lessons as a kid and has this weird proclivity for liking music. But I guess it makes sense. It's a fun thing for the kids, but it also makes some sense for The Penguin. For one thing, music is sometimes seen as an upper class thing. Look at opera and everything. But also: a lot of Penguin's actors have been singers. Paul Williams had a whole career in that. Jess Harnell and Tom Kenny don't do music for a living, but they can sing if a show requires them to, Danny DeVito did a song for Disney's Hercules, etc. So it makes some small amount of sense, I suppose.

Another transcription!! I'm real proud of this one.
This is the track that plays as Winslow first enters the Paradise, donning his iconic leather suit and mask. I kinda had to make up the title and I wasn't entirely sure who to credit, since this song wasn't included on the official soundtrack. I absolutely love all the string trio/piano tracks used throughout Phantom, it's such a shame they never got an official release...
