From an acting perspective, there is so much emotion behind this song. You can see in her face and the way she sings how torn up she is. She knows she's down them all wrong and she's apologising for that. But at the same time begging almost on her knees for forgiveness, incredible acting on the part of Elaine Paige...Well done

let me just leave this here because apparently many people don't get why the tribe rejected her when she came back. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The other cats dislike Grizabella because she left the Jellicles long ago to explore the outside world. I suppose that they interpreted Grizabella leaving as her thinking that she was too good for them (it’s explained in the song, “Grizabella the Glamour Cat”). Therefore, when she comes back old, tattered, and dirty, they have no sympathy for her. “Memory” is Grizabella’s emotional appeal to the other cats to forgive her and finally accept her back. Fortunately for her, she succeeds. Not only do the cats finally show Grizabella kindness, but they decide that, after all she’s been through, she’s the one who deserves to be reborn.

I'd always wondered, when I saw this as a kid, why the cats scorned Griz but were sympathetic towards Gus when his story seemed to me (at the time) to be a lot like hers--once famous but now fallen on hard times. I didn't know this element of the backstory at the time (plus I was too young to understand the "fallen woman/prostitution" connotations).

I always thought she had mange or something-she literally can’t be let back in because she’ll spread a devastating disease. It fits in with just how awful her fur is, and how the adult cats try to keep anyone from touching her. Munkustrap is especially sympathetic to her: he understands how much she is suffering and wants to help, but has to protect the others as well.

It's actually not a bow at all. It's a recurring gesture throughout the musical that all the Jellicles use to " reach out" to one another to show the love they have for each other. She felt OD reaching out to her, and she did that weird backward hand gesture in hopes that he would actually reach out and touch her.

"Memory" will always be Elaine Paige's song for me. It's just one of the most beautiful, haunting songs in any musical. The melody, the lyrics and the imagery - it just expresses something so deeply human. The personification of human loneliness and loss could not be more powerfully conveyed than in the image of this dishevelled lonely cat left out alone night after night in the cold, in the rain or in the wind, and all she has left is the light of the moon and the streetlamps to guide her, the memory of a time when life was happier and the glimmer of hope that maybe just maybe things might one day be alright again... Lastly, I love the unique vocal touches at 'sound' 0:13, 'moon' at 0:18, and 'smi'-ling at 0:23. They're each one note, one syllable and yet somehow she modulates up and down ever so slightly, to the point that whether intentional or not it even sounds like a cat's sad meowing. It's so subtle but just that gentle quivering in the voice adds such a vulnerability and furthers the poetry and imagery in the song...

As much as Grizabellas song, this is also a huge character moment for Deuteronomy. When everyone else rejects her, he is one that reaches out to her, even though she cannot see it. It really tells a lot about his character as someone that does actually care about ALL of them. If you go with the metaphor and biblical implications, he becomes far more of a jesus figure in that he reaches out for the outcasts that noone else wants ,as well as a parallel to the bliblical story of the prodigal son.

Andrew Lloyd Webber admitted that when this musical first opened in London, they were almost certain that it was going to flop, due to the wackiness of the synopsis of the musical (cat-humans coming together to dance and sing and be weird) But to everyone's surprise the musical was so well enjoyed when it was first released, to the point where to this day it is one of the moat popular musicals of all time. And this is all because it was executed well. Even with weird lyrics and plot, the dancing and music was enough to entertain and engage the audience, whether ironically or not. When the 1998 film released, while not hitting theaters, makeup and costumes were well constructed, and the music was essentially upgraded from synthesizers and a small group of instruments to a legitimate orchestra. This, plus the ADR of the vocals, in my opinion really helped show the unique beauty of this musical. Execution is everything, guys.

I cannot listen to or sing this song without feeling that emotion. Even if you've never seen the musical (or know the storyline), the song itself evokes the image of a lonely, now homeless cat, whose best years and health are behind her, out on an inner city street alone at night. She remembers when she was young and beautiful, she had a home, and people at least pretended to care about her. But now they are too busy and distracted as they pass her by on the street, uncaring and perhaps avoiding her gaze; as she struggles to fend for herself and find hope and strength to make it to another day. People can be so self-centered and insensitive sometimes, especially when it comes to animals.

2:40 Old Deuteronomy got up but why didn't he walk to her and give her the love and comfort she needed badly? Or at least sound out that she is not alone or something...

because she was rejected by the tribe, he accepts her, but that doesn't mean everyone else does.

I am so not a fan of cats- but this song is everything
@@colliric You are a rather insolent, I guess. What was previously about the difference between the movie version and the musical version is unthinkable. Look, I'm understand that not everyone likes the movie version, but you did it just hate. You just can't reconcile that the movie version has a better storytelling than the musical version.

the reason why they won't let her back into the tribe is because of the way she looks now . she's not as young as she was once . she's old , and her coat and fur is now ragged and dirty
