Showtune of the week - This Nearly Was Mine

The 2008 revival of South Pacific featured an amazing cast led by Paulo Szot and Kelli O'Hara.  This was the first Broadway revival of the show since it's original run.  The score is filled with amazing songs, several controversially ahead of their time.  If anyone was lucky to catch this show live or on the PBS broadcast, you can attest to it's power.  This particular ballad is sung by Emile de Becque in the show's 2nd act.  Szot won a well deserved Tony Award for his portrayal.
