Applause (Bonnie Franklin song)
"Applause" is the title song from the 1970 Broadway musical ''Applause'', with music by Charles Strouse and lyrics by Lee Adams,〔Thomas S. Hischak. ''Off-Broadway Musicals since 1919: From Greenwich Village ...'', 2011. "Songwriters Charles Strouse and Lee Adams had Broadway hits together with Bye Bye Birdie, Applause, and Golden Boy."〕 originally performed by Bonnie Franklin, who originated the role of Bonnie in the musical, and recorded as a single with orchestra and chorus conducted by Donald Pippin. The single was released with a B-side featuring the star of the production, Lauren Bacall, making her musical theatre debut, performing "Something Greater" together with Len Cariou. The single's popularity led to Franklin's being invited to perform it on the 24th Tony Awards broadcast on television, where the show gained Best Musical, Bacall Best Leading Actress in a Musical, but Bonnie Franklin missed out on the best supporting actress to Melba Moore.
==Music and lyrics==
The composer, Strouse, called in Marvin Hamlisch to write the arrangement for the title song "Applause", which was sung at the opening of the show by Franklin as waiters danced on tables.〔Steven Suskin. ''The Sound of Broadway Music: A Book of Orchestrators'', 2011.〕 The song was reprised at the end of the show.〔''Plays and Players'' - Volume 17 -1969, p. 16. ()n adroitly handled prelude to the flashback that is the show."〕
The song has Franklin's character, a waitress-cum-chorus dancer named Bonnie, asking her fellow waiter-performers: "What is it that we're living for?"—then providing the answer: "Applause, Applause! / Nothing I know / brings on the glow / like sweet applause."
