Can't disagree with you there. Though Send in the Clowns is a bit of a Sondheim oddity- not too many of his songs became hits. A Chorus Line had some hits, didn't it?

What I Did For Love, I guess would be a hit to a degree but did it ever chart?
I know that Shakalaka Baby from BOMBAY DREAMS was a chart hit in the UK.
Others I remember lately--
Our Kind Of Love-- HANNAH (Beautiful Game)
No Matter What - BOYZONE (Whistle Down The Wind)

Also, Love Changes Everything from Aspects of Love, was a big hit for Michael Ball in the U.K. in the early 90's.

FYI I was in London for a full week and therefore had plenty of oppurtunies to see shows. So I saw one or two I had seen in America and was interested in comparing with London. I'm so pathetic.

I've seen some rather amazing singers in London, but few of the shows seemed polished. Generally, the heavy-hitters such as the Lloyd-Webber or Mackintosh shows will feature the best talent, but then, even a small show like All You Need is Love or Song of Singapore will have fantastic singer like Issy Van Randwyck. The long-running shows are the ones that usually fall by the wayside. The biggest difference I have noticed would be in the dancers. The British chorus dancers usually are not as sharp and clean as Americans.
