Line 24:
Considers the internet to be a problem in promoting his shows, as he finds it to be full of people who will [[Complaining About Shows You Don't Watch|complain about the show without even having seen it]]... Especially his newest ''[[Love Never Dies]]'', the sequel to ''[[Phantom of the Opera]]''. ''Love Never Dies'' got so much flak from the ''Phantom'' fanbase (it got dubbed "Paint Never Dries" and a group opposing the sequel called "Love Should Die" was formed), Lloyd Webber bit the hands that fed him by lashing out at the ''Phantom'' fanbase, instead of admitting ''Love Never Dies'' was no good, at least not as good as ''Phantom''. Continuing the above-mentioned trend of reusing melodies he had composed earlier, the melody of LND's title song had actually been used twice before, first as "Our Kind of Love" in ''The Beautiful Game'', and then later as "The Heart is Slow to Learn" (which was in all fairness intended for the Phantom sequel at first).
In addition to his pop/musical work, Lloyd Webber has written one piece of classical music, a requiem mass composed to honor his father, who died in 1982. ''
Shares a birthday with [[Stephen Sondheim]], of all people.
