Les Miserables as well...
Although I was suprised only like 2 said Sweeney Todd and I loved that show as well, thought it was just amazing.
Les Mis is my favorite though, and don't think anything will come close anytime soon or ever.
CHICAGO for me too.
There is nothing like it - it's BRILLIANT. The score is amazing, the choreography is amazing - and the performances I've seen were amazing.

WICKED. My friends and I make the joke it was our "gateway show," Ya know how one small drug makes you do others? Well, once I got really into Wicked, the collection just exploded. The show really means something to me and its a time in my life that it defines and I can relate to it. I've had the cd for almost two years and I have listened to it every day since basically it came out and it doesn't get old. I've seen the show a few times and love it, read the book, enjoyed it.
So, yea WICKED all the way. I really don't see why someone would say "Wicked . . . I'm sorry. Don't be ashamed, everyone has opinions, don't apologize for them! :)
My favorite musical would have to be Hair. For it's score alone, and the song Easy To be hard. I have only seen one live production and i walked out it was so bad. I love the movie.

I'm still thinking about this. You really shouldn't ask such difficult questions!

Oh dear this has really induced a headache.
Almost impossible to decide between "Sweeney Todd" and "She Loves Me", both perfect but if pushed "Sweeney Todd".

first of all, Joeyjoe, I love your screen pic of Patsy!!
I just saw Wicked for the first time (am I the only one who hadn't seen it yet?) in Chicago last week, and absolutley loved it, but I would still have to say Les Miz is my overall favorite.
1 name.....WICKED love that show to pieces!
