I listened to Red and Black from Les Miz: Duisburg for a long, LONG time (I don't remember exactly). The reason for that, other than it's an awesome song, was that I was trying to memorize the lyrics but I don't speak German.
when i was in high school i would listen to the first rent cd on the way to school in the morning and the 2nd one on the way home. thats a lot of rent. now i love so many musicals that i cant listen to one for a long time because i know that there are so many others i could listen to
In 7th grade while i was doing my homework i needed to listen to music, and the kind of music i listened to gave me headaches if i listened to it for too long (i know it doesn't make sense, but thats ok), so I listened to Rent EVERY DAY while i did my homework for like 3 months straight. By the end of 7th grade the covers, backs, and inside covers of all my books and note books had Rent lyrics all over them.
i listen to Boy From Oz constantly. walking to class, in my dorm, going to lunch/dinner. lets just say my roomie knows I Go To Rio by heart now. she wants to put me in a box and send me there. but ever since i saw the show in july for the second time it's been in my cd player.

Citizens of Oz, there is an enemy that must be found and captured! Believe nothing she says. She's evil. Responsible for the mutilation of these poor, innocent monkeys! Her green skin is but an outward manifestation of her twisted nature! This distortion, this repulsion, this - - Wicked Witch!
I also must admit to Wicked. I have been playing it virtually non-stop since I got it in April. Unfortunately I have so much work I can't listen to it as often as I would like. However, I think I will need to get a new one soon because it is getting scratched.
"Blow out the candles, Robert, and make a wish. Want something. Want something."
When I first got Wicked, it was the only cd I ever listened to! I loved it and memorized all the words within days.
Thus is how the book of man and woman shall be written endlessly crashing into each other like 2 vengeful bumper cars - I Love You You're Perfect Now Change
I haven't listened to anything but TABOO since June. I'll spend all day listening to the recording. I won't take phone calls because "Petrified" has come on. I won't come down to dinner until the 30 seconds left of "Come On in from the Outside" has played. My parents are actually starting to worry.
When I first bought the "Taboo", "Assassins", and "Caroline" cds, I didn't listen to anything but them for two weeks after I bought them. As for songs, I've once listened to "Run, Freedom Run" from "Urinetown" for an hour and a half straight. Lately, all I play is "Role of a Lifetime", "One, and "Are You There" from "Bare". That's been going on since middle of two weeks ago.
A little swash, a bit of buckle - you'll love it more than bread.
I had an internship in the Adirondaks in upstate NY this summer and I drove there and back from Pennsylvania, a 5 1/2 hour drive. I had a stack of cast recordings in my car and rotated them as I drove. The stack included Taboo (British and American cast), Wicked, Ave. Q, Rocky Horror Show (NBC), Once on This Island, and Rent. I know, more than 5 1/2 hours... my poor, poor housemates didn't know what they were getting into when they had to use me as a ride back and forth to the theatre each day. :)
