i'm sure there are like 28,000 threads like this (so i exaggerate) but I'm just wondering what your tastes are.
Mine right now that I can't get out of my head is "The World Has Gone Insane" from Jekyll and Hyde. I just love the orchestration of that song.

Posted: 5/12/08 at 6:20pmFor some reason I've been on a big A Little Night Music kick lately, so it seems like there's always one line or another from "A Weekend in the Country" running through my head.

Posted: 5/12/08 at 6:59pmI like a lot, it would be almost impossible for me to pick a runner but but as for my first choice "What You Own" is and always will be my favorite... something about that song just gets me every time, I love it.

All er nothin-Oklahoma
Wouldnt it be lovely-My fair lady

Usually, the last three shows and the next four have songs which I almost purposely stick into my head, so right now it goes something like this:
"I love a moo cow, a true cow, a new cow named Caroline"
"Moo moo moo moo"
(Patti walks across the stage)
"Moo mooo moo moo"
"I'm Electrifying, and I ain't even tryin"
"ME"
"I Did something wrong... once"
"Misery"
"I'm....... Infected"
"Tragedy"
"Come and join the Anti Polio picnic!"
"helpless, Hoplessness"
"I'm a little upset!"
"Heartache and woe"
"Screw loose"
"Nothing bad"
"It won't be long now!"
"En Washington Heights"
"Learning the ropes in America"
"96,000"
"I remember the praise, (something here is in spanish) My parents they waved and said, Nina, be brave and you're gonna be fine!"
"Sunday!"
"Putting it together"
"Sunday!"
"Right under the tit..."
"Sunday!"
It's hot up here!"
And then of course, I've been on a sondheim diet lately, so throw in a Little death, Weekend, Send in the clowns, and the glamourous life.(la la la) Also, i've been obsessed lately with Lothlorien from LOTR, truly beautiful song, really.

Posted: 5/13/08 at 6:41amOy. I've had "mutter, mutter, mutter, mutter - yes Jerome? mutter - no Jerome! mutter, mutter, mutter, mutter" stuck in my head for the past week because my ipod is stuck on the OBC recording of "Merrily We Roll Along". I even started muttering it out loud today while teaching a class. Not cool.
