What is "Taylor the Latte Boy" from? I found a random audio clip of Cheno singing it on the Rosie O'Donnell Show from several years ago.

Te cubrire.

Betrayed from The Producers

BSoBW2: I punched Sondheim in the face after I saw Wicked and said, "Why couldn't you write like that!?"

I believe that Latte Boy is not from a show.

What about "Ring Them Bells"?

govener - you are correct - taylor the latte boy is not from a show - it's a song by the team Goldrich and Heisler

Cheno did sing it on Rosie and plans to record it on her upcoming second album, but Susan Egan also does her own rendition of it on her new Coffee House

a lot of broadway people have performed it at various benefits - john tartaglia actually sang it at Empty-Handed - it was hilarious!!!

The Schmuel Song from L5Y is such a good story song!

My first thought, too, was Meadowlark--seems like a good "showy" audition song. (Is that good?)

I think "Elegies" and "New World" are great ideas too. "Stars and the Moon" is short and very pretty.

If anyone ever tells you that you put too much Parmesan cheese on your pasta, stop talking to them. You don't need that kind of negativity in your life.

"Life Story" from Closer Than Ever. The most beautiful, and chucklingly (I made that word up) song ever written for the stage.

"Do you know what pledge time is, Andrew"? said the PBS Executive. "Yes", Lloyd Webber replied. "My 50th birthday special must be one program that gets done a lot." "No", mused the man from PBS heedlessy. "Not so much. Our Stephen Sondheim Carnegie Hall concert. That's a big one." Spoons, forks and knives seemed suddenly to suspend their motion in horror, all around the table.
