Jerry Likes My Corn from Grey Gardens. It's so weirdly entrancing. And it kills me when she says "Mountain Dew, Super Bowl"

"She Used To Be Mine" and "When He Sees Me" from Waitress (along with most of that concept recording) as well the as the score to Bright Star, especially "Asheville" "Bright Star" and "Woah, Mama".

I find the songs I listen to most lately are "Welcome to Our House on Maple Avenue" and "Ring of Keys" from Fun Home, and "Hair" and "The Flesh Failures" from Hair.

I can't stop listening to Astonishing from Little Women. The ending, starting with "I'll go and start a riot, be anything but quiet" is so triumphant.

The bright star cast recording

forget about the boy- thoroughly modern Millie

london Matilda cast recording, especially that part of miracle with the parents which didn't make it to the Broadway version.

Not "obsessed" but my favorites right now are "So Familiar" from Bright Star, "Opening Up" from Waitress and "Selling Out" from American Psycho.

I also can't stop listening to "Waving Through A Window" from Dear Evan Hansen. I need to see this show 1000x more.

I've been listening to the whole Bright Star recording, but my favorites that I tend to repeat are Woah Mama, Asheville, and I Can't Wait. 

[pupscotch]

Posted: 5/20/16 at 10:07am

Waving Through A Window from Dear Evan Hansen, most of the Waitress concept album (especially She Used to Be Mine, Bad Idea, I Didn't Plan It, Opening Up, When He Sees Me, and Never Ever Getting Rid of Me), and I've currently been listening to the Drowsy Chaperone a lot, especially Show Off, Toledo Surprise, and Bride's Lament.

Is this only for albums from new seasons? If yes, then it's been The Color Purple Revival, for sure.

 

But I also re-discovered Follies recently, and have been fussing over Dorothy Collin's "Losing My Mind" and Alexis Smith's "Could I Leave You?". A LOT.

The entire Bright Star cast recording. I haven't listened to anything else in a month. Oh and on top of that, Carmen Cusack, whose performance has crept into my bones and STAYED there.

I'm still stuck on Fun Home. Maps and Flying Away are my favorites. I am so happy they had their season and did not have to compete with Hamilton. Fun Home is such an important show and I'm so glad it didn't get lost in the Hamilmania.

Maybe not an obsession, but I will admit that I am still mesmerized by what I saw at the Schoenfeld last Saturday night.  Went out to dinner with a friend last night and was playing a few songs from the London recording of American Psycho and my friend was transfixed as well.  I know it's not everyone's cup of tea, but I was thoroughly entertained and find myself going back to some of the songs on my iPod repeatedly.
