I love their Titanic spoof, but then again that show holds a special place in my heart. But my fav has to be ALW singing "Hate Me" to the tune of Memory:
Hate me Why does everyone hate me? Alan Lerner once told me Its because it saves time...
I liked overall volume 2. I loved Teeney Todd, Hey Bob Fosse, The Phantom of the Musical when Llyod webber becomes Mickey Mouse was hysterical and they also did a thing where Liza sings to the tune of jonny one note and that was funny to.

"I am sorry but it is an unjust world and virtue is only triumphant in theatricle performances" The Mikado
" You know the part where I sing AHHHHHHHHHHHH. You know the part I mean? Oh You do? Darling I love you, Both of You!"

I love Into the Words. We played it at the cast party when my theatre camp did Into the Woods and the song was hilarious. I also like the "how we gonna get seats to Rent song" lol.
I Don't have one favorite. My oldest favorite was called Chita/Rita. The newer ones: Wickeder- I call it Defying Chenoweth. It was outstanding with Jen Simard as Chenoweth. I also love "It Sucks To Be You" "Let's Ruin Times Square Again" " You Can't Stop My Seat" I love almost every skit in every Forbidden Broadway, except the La Cage one. Forbidden Broadway is my favorite show of all time.
I also love the ASSASSINS number and the I Am My Own Wife number.
Jen Simard did a very good impersonation of Bernadette Peter's, another favorite. (But, I thought Bernadette was brilliant in Gypsy, she just sounds exactly like her and that was fun)

I love the Sarah Brightman spoof in the current SVU version. Also, "It Sucks To Be Us" is hilarious! Plus, all of the Tony Awards spoofs are fantastic!
From other volumes: I also love the "Ann Miller - I'm still Wierd" parody and "Beauty's Been Decreased." Felicia Finley's Heather Headley is also pretty hysterical.
Jennifer Simard's Bernadette Peters is brilliant on SVU, but I don't think the the writing of the actual parody is very good.
Speaking of - the best spoof lyric Alessandrini ever wrote is probably the Julie Andrews spoof from STAR on FB Strikes Back which was never used in the show, only played at the end as the audience left the theatre.
I'm on the "Liza One-Note" bandwagon, and the Merman-Martin parody, when Merman says "Swell! Wasn't that Swell? Now, who'd like to hear ME sing a duet?" LOVED IT!
