Rose's Turn (2003) is definitely the best. Also, My New Philosophy.

Kristin Chenoweth did give a very cute Tony performance when she sang "My New Philosophy."
Another performance I love was about 30 seconds long but more memorable than all the performances we have seen in the past couple of years: Anita Morris dancing and singing "You Gotta Get a Gimmick" during the Sondheim tribute in 1984, I believe. The way she moved her hips, sang the song, and popped the head just blew me away. What an impressive performer.
Dorothy Loudon was a crazy performer, she just owned the stage, owned the songs, owned everything about the performance. I love the way she says "rotten orphan" in the lead-up to "Easy Street" at the Tonys.

I thought that Kristin's "My New Philosophy" was nothing special.

"Where You Are" from the Kiss of the Spider Woman was amazing. It was my first time watching Chita Rivera perform and I loved it!

"Turkey Lurkey Time" was pure fun. I also like both the original and revival's performance of La Cage aux Folles.

Titanic's and Ragtime's are my favorites, too.
