Make Me Happy- Lippa's Wild Party

I'm obsessed with that song. That's a great one.

I was wondering when someone would say "Your Fault". That's the first one that popped in my head.
Also, maybe "Could You Use Me?" from Crazy For You. It's wooing confrontation, though.

No one is alone.

I agree with a lot of them, but I'd like to add "Another National Anthem" from Assassins.

"You're the worst thing to happen to musical theatre since Andrew Lloyd Webber!" --Family Guy

"Shut up! It's been 29 years!!!" --the incomparable Patti LuPone in her MUCH DESERVED Tony acceptance speech for Gypsy.

Laura/Glyde Confrontation in WIW is my favorite, plus it was staged very well.

How to properly use its/it's: Its is the possessive. It's is the contraction for it is...

I think "The Life" must be the show that has the most confrontation:

Go Home
I'm Leaving You
My Way or The Highway

If anyone ever tells you that you put too much Parmesan cheese on your pasta, stop talking to them. You don't need that kind of negativity in your life.

Stay with Me- Into the Woods is kinda confrontational.
