If we're talking about the N.B.C. Recording of LSOH, 'Call Back in the Morning' is a rather fast song. Also a lot of the Rent songs...which I just realized were already mentioned.

Well, I know Suleen would probably agree with me: The best fast song is "Can't Stop Talking" from the Betty Hutton-Fred Astaire film LET'S DANCE.

Ooh, "We're Okay" from Rent is fast and rather entertaining..I dunno, I'm pretty easily amused.

OMG, thanks you all for the fantastic suggestions. Keep em coming because I do not have some of the recordings that some of your suggestions are coming from. Thanks a million.

Sondheim ususally includes at least one fast song in all of his scores. Examples:

Company - Getting Married Today
Sunday In The Park With George - Color And Light (gets fast)
Into The Woods - Your Fault
Assassins - How I Saved Roosevelt
Sweeney Todd - Kiss Me

I'm sure there are more.
