I'm not asking for your favorite song, or necessarily for your favorite 'loud' song. But what are some of the best songs to listen to in the car that you can just BLAST?

My list starts with:

Casualty of Love - WEDDING SINGER
One Day More - LES MIZ
It's Your Wedding Day - WEDDING SINGER
Without Love - HAIRSPRAY

My sis and I like to crank up "Great Big Stuff" in the car. And we try to recreate Norbert's Tony performance. Hard to do while keeping your hands on the wheel.

Yeah, we're dorks. But it's tons of fun.

Also, "Pinball Wizard" and "Acid Queen" make for some good speaker blasting!

"Let the little girl go, and that poor little dog? Dodo." That's my favorite line in the whole show (Wicked). My next favorite line is "Oh! It seems the artichoke is steamed."

^Totally agree with those two Hair songs. Even adding on Gavin Creel's "Going Down."

Also "Let it Go" from The Full Monty.

I like the Overture and The Phantom of the Opera from The Phantom of the Opera. RENT also has a few good songs to blast on the car stereo.

Oh, what a great idea for a thread! "Right in Front of Your Eyes" from The Wedding Singer is my favorite, of course i sound nothing like Amy Spanger. I liked also "Defying Gravity" and "No Good Deed" awhile back...yeah...i can't believe im so cheesy.

It's Your Wedding Day, Casualty of Love, Saturday Night in the City, Right Infront of Your Eyes, and Let Me Come Home - THE WEDDING SINGER

Uuuh... quite a bit from JERSEY BOYS (especially this one), RENT, and ALTAR BOYZ. Umm. I'm sure if I had the cast recording to WE WILL ROCK YOU that would be on this list, too. re: Best Songs to Blow Out Your Car Stereo Haha. Because, uh, blaring Queen rocks. Even if it's not Queen performing it.

I tend to do it with my windows closed so as not to get strange looks, but Make My Garden Grown from Candide sounds INCREDIBLE when you blast it.

LOL So true. I like hearing those big brassy songs cranked up a little on car stereo mostly.

I do enjoy La Vie Boheme in the car. Once, I was at a red light and my windows were closed, but I was listening to it and singing and dancing in the car. I looked to my right, and this old couple in the car next to me were staring and laughing.


Hear the words I sing: war's a horrid thing. So, I sing sing sing... Ding a ling a ling.

To add to the Wedding Singer list..."Not That Kind of Thing"!

Also, if you are in a hurry to get to a meeting, "Racing With the Clock" from Pajama Game is always fun.
