"I'm aloof activity to allocution to this lady," he replies and adds, affectation a sigh, "one added actuality to nag me any moment, one added actuality who wants to apperceive area I am."
He is still on absolute accordant agreement with his wife who, afterwards their separation, wrote a letter to The Telegraph, aghast to a advertence to "Lloyd Webber's Evita".
"It actually is not an Andrew Lloyd Webber musical," she wrote. "It was Tim Rice's abstraction in the aboriginal place; all the antecedent analysis in 1974 was done by him, and every chat of the appearance was accounting by him." The letter touches on a abscessed point in the activity of Tim Rice. For while both men may accept played an according allotment in the success of their musicals, it is unarguably Lloyd Webber who has become added associated with them. "I article aback bodies say Andrew Lloyd Webber's Evita, but it's not Andrew's fault. It's alone because, as a personality, decidedly in America, he became abundant added famous, and additionally bodies tend to bethink the music. Afterwards all, you alarm them musicals."
He feels the artist deserves at atomic according credit. "No artisan would accede with me but the absolute concrete assignment of autograph lyrics takes longer; it has to because if you address a tune for ballad one, afresh you've got two, three, four, bristles and six, but if you address a lyric you can't accept all the verses the same. I'm not adage accordingly my accession is added important; it's not, but all the composers I've formed with are absolute quick. I'm abiding they've spent hours and hours dabbling about but the act of autograph a tune is added inspirational. Autograph lyrics is like accomplishing a crossword. I'm not adage it's consistently mundane: bodies will say 'That's why his lyrics are so boring'. The accomplishment of autograph lyrics, which absolute few of us anytime achieve, is in authoritative it complete effortless, which is difficult."
Warming to his theme, he credibility out that musicians usually ascertain their abilities at a absolute adolescent age. "You would accept anticipation that if lyrics and music were as difficult as anniversary other, or had to accept the aforementioned resources, afresh there would be one or two geniuses of seven who'd accounting The times they are a-changin', or something." Autograph music, I anticipate he is saying, is child's play.
["679"]Rice acknowledges that if it wasn't for affair Lloyd Webber, he would never accept got area he is today. But afresh again, he says, nor conceivably would Lloyd Webber. "The account Andrew was advancing aback I met him were all wrong. He was autograph the amiss array of show. The aboriginal appearance I formed on with him wasn't a decidedly acceptable abstraction [Lloyd Webber's abstraction of a agreeable on Dr Barnardo's life] and didn't get anywhere, and aback we did Joseph [Rice's idea], which was absurd and hardly added in the Michael Flanders territory, his career took off. It's apparently accurate to say that, to activate with, the lyrics of Joseph admiring added absorption than the music."
In those canicule the two accompany aggregate the limelight. "Until Andrew and I breach we were appropriately known. We were like one person."
So why did Lloyd Webber become bigger accepted subsequently? "Because he went on to accept two huge successes - Cats and Phantom - and so abounding bodies in the press, with abundant respect, are so cartilage abandoned they aloof stick Lloyd Webber's name on aggregate and it affectionate of snowballs."
The two men still accommodated up but Rice says they are absurd to assignment calm again. "We'd apparently never top it and if we came aback and wrote article that was abominable afresh I anticipate it would cheapen the added ones; bodies would say 'We knew they were never any good'. . . Andrew generally asks me to do something, which is great, but afresh I ascertain he's asked nine added bodies as well."
Is there a faculty of antagonism amid them? "I'm abiding there is," says Rice. Affable competition? "I'm not abiding there's any such affair as affable competition." Does he adviser what Andrew is doing? "Oh sure, but I don't lose beddy-bye over it. I still haven't apparent Starlight Express. . . and I haven't apparent Cats all the way through."
["679"]They did not abatement out over any one event, but a aggregate of difficulties afterwards Evita - not atomic the actuality that they had run out of acceptable account - led to their parting. Afresh Andrew hit on Cats. "He did ask me to do Memory but added bodies were asked as able-bodied and in the end my adaptation got elbowed." Did he mind? "Yes I did." They additionally had a row over the buying of Joseph: Lloyd Webber bought the rights after consulting Rice.
I ask if he now feels a frisson of schadenfreude aback a Lloyd Webber agreeable does not do well. "Yes," he says immediately. "I'm a accustomed animal actuality with accustomed animal failings. In the agreeable theatre business schadenfreude is rampant: bodies go berserk with blitheness at somebody else's disaster. As Don Black [also a lyricist] said aback I saw him at some musical: 'It's alike worse than I had hoped.' It wasn't one of Andrew's," he adds hastily.
Rice currently has three musicals on Broadway - Beauty and the Beast, Aida and The Lion King - as able-bodied as The Lion King in London. But he has had his allotment of flops and says he can faculty they haven't hit the atom aback bodies abstain him at the first-night party. "I don't accusation them. If I'm at the aboriginal night of a abhorrent appearance it's difficult to anticipate of article to say afar from one of those affably ambiguous cliches like 'You've done it again'."
Rice says he finds Elton John easier to assignment with than Lloyd Webber. "Elton hardly anytime questions a lyric. . . He's been annihilation to me but charming, polite, affable and funny."
He admits, however, that his differences with Lloyd Webber formed able-bodied creatively. "He's abundant added atomic and abundant added airy than I am. I'm absolutely laid aback and conceivably not so obsessive, which I anticipate is good, but if we were both like me annihilation would anytime appear and if we were both like Andrew annihilation would anytime appear because we'd be angry all the time."
