What? No "No One Is Alone" or "Being Alive"?

Keep trying but failing to narrow it down, I wind up with about 4 lists of 15 MUSTS!
I may go for the one from each show style, but I can't even narrow it down that way!

it's pretty impossible. I didn't have a great strategy - only went with things that I liked, or things that I don't always hear...

I'm probably going to miss a bunch, but here goes:
1. Ladies Who Lunch
2. Being Alive
3. Losing My Mind
4. Send in the Clowns
5. Someone in a Tree
6. A Little Priest
7. Not While I'm Around
8. Not a Day Goes By
9. Putting It Together
10. Children Will Listen
11. No One Is Alone
12. Invocation and Instructions to the Audience
13. Anyone Can Whistle
14. I'm Still Here
15. Broadway Baby
Not my favorite songs, necessarily, but those are the ones I think would be placed on a "Greatest Hits" CD. There's a difference.
