This 11 o'clock number from HAIRSPRAY has always been a quiet favorite of mine. But boy oh boy are these lyrics so incredibly relevant in this country right now.

Unnecessary Revivals
May 24

Two immediately come to mind...
The 2009 revival of GUYS AND DOLLS (17 years after the last revival)
The 2012 revival of ANNIE (15 years after the revival before it)

Amen to that!
Ironically, if she had written 'I Will Always Love You' about 20 years later for Hollywood and not for herself, she'd have one.

Just listened to "One of the Boys" on Sirius XM. What a great song. In fact, I love the score to 9 TO 5. Backwards Barbie, Get Out and Stay Out, just to name a few. I'm really surprised this show didn't have a better run. And I've certainly heard what, IMO, are lesser scores that have won Best Score. Dolly is truly one of the greatest song writers of our time, penning over 3,000 songs (including one of the best selling singles of all time). It's not fair to say she w
