I haven't heard any songs from this yet, but I actually have the Cast Recording ordered and am waiting to recieve it (stupid amazon.com and their delayed shipping!)
Anything sung by the glorious Mary Testa.
I love the music so much, it changes on a daily basis, but I think my favorite song would have to Rising Up. I just love the melody and the way the voices build like the storm they are describing. that song gives me chills every time I listen to it.
Curiousity also stands out to me. What fantastic lyrics.

BroadwayGirl ... I want to be Lily too! So what we must do is just split the songs and have a revue.
I call No More. And maybe Coffee. But No More is miiine. *clutches it*

Then I totally call the actress. Coffee is mine, almostfamous. Plus, I love the harmony in Second Message.
CQ already has dibs on The Janitor...

I really do love this CD! The song "Kesa" is just pure genius and I love "See What I Wanna See", "Big Money", and "No More"! It's such a diverse CD and it is great!

Did anyone else get a PM from Michael John LaChuisa? After I posted here complimenting SWIWS, he sent me a message. I'm not sure if it's actually him, but how awesome would that be if it was?

Finally recieved this last week and I love all of the songs. I particuarly like "See What I Wanna See" , I'm not some kind of crazy Idina Menzel fan but I like pretty much all of her songs. I also seem to be playing "There Will be a Miracle" a lot lately.
I love the entire CD and just can't get enough of it! My faves are Kesa / Morito...couldn't get them out of my head since I left the theater last October!!!
Is it wrong of me to say how much I miss hearing this show sung by the original WTF cast? Nothing compares to Michael C. Hall doing the thief or "Curiosity" or Audra McDonald as Kesa for that matter... And just the thought of Tom Wopat doing the harmonies in the husband's statement with Mary Testa still gives me chills...
i honestly can't choose just one song that's my favorite because i am in love with the entire score. kesa/morito, see what i wanna see, coffee, gloryday, curiosity, there will be a miracle, and rising up all top my list (and my most played list too haha).
really wish i would have been able to get to the city before it closed.
I just recently bought the cast recording and I love it! My favorites are See What I Wanna See, No More, and Coffee.
There isn't anything I constantly skip over. The title song is great. Mary Testa is of course brilliant.
I wish there was sheet music to Central Park, I'd love to attack that song.
YESSSS PLEASE GOD PUBLISH SHEET MUSIC FROM THIS SHOW
Gloryday is fantastic. I also like the title song.
