Posted: 1/2/07 at 11:49pm"Where is the Tribe for Me?" from Bajour. It's hard to describe it, but mental breakdown might not be a bad description.

Yes, "And I Am Telling You"
And I break down every time I listen to the cast recording of Fame (for those of you still in high school, trust me: hearing that record after high school is practically killer. It is a brilliant album; one of the greatest cast recordings in history; but it is extremely heart-wrenching!) ... but "Bring on Tomorrow" is the most emotional showtune "ever!" I totally break down, mentally and physically, and even trying to sing it without wanting to cry is a challenge.
