Nice List. But I think you need to add the new national anthem - "It sucks to be me" from Avenue Q...And perhaps in the future, a little "No one mourns the wicked."

I was thinking about adding something from Strike Up the Band, but that's too acid even for me. :)

I'm sort of mad because I asked my dad to send me my Les Mis OBC, and he did- only the track info doesn't have artist names. Argh.
