I can't remember the name of it, but the song the cops sing in URINETOWN was the funniest thing i can ever remember seeing.

Speaking of that show 'Urinetown' and 'Run Freedom Run' were pretty darn funny too.

Producers in general is funny.

The two songs that I think I cried becheause they were so funny are:"Find your Grail" but you had to see it to think it's funny. "You won't succeed on broadway"...is funnier.

In Altar Boyz I had tears during the song "Epiphany". I don't know why but I think it was everything that led up to it. But when it comes to funniest it's probably "everybody fits" or "Something About You"

It's gotta be "Springtime For Hitler." You can joke about gay guys, internet porn, Jews, laughing at people's misfortune, or songs that go like however. But never will there be another song about Hitler. I mean, think about it. I'm sure in the future there'll be more gay and Jewish songs. But every other Hitler song will be related back to this one, the origin of Broadway's funniest music.

To me the funniest is "Over The Moon".

All of Ave Q
Much of DRS (esp. Norbert's few lines it "Nothing Is Too Wonderful To Be True")
Some of Spamalot
"Keep It Gay" from the Producers, and "King of Broadway"

As someone who has enjoyed Spamalot hugely in the past year, I have to say I'm surprised not many people have mentioned 'Not Yet Dead' as their funniest song. Esp Christian Borle! Maybe it's funnier on stage than on the soundtrack (and it's pretty early on in the show)? I also love 'The Song That Goes Like This', 'Find Your Grail', 'All For One' and 'You Won't Succeed on Broadway'.

Of the other Broadway musicals I've seen (admittedly a limited number compared to the West End), my faves have been 'Great Big Stuff', 'Springtime for Hitler' 'All About Ruprecht' and 'Dance 10, Looks 3'.

After reading this thread I'm looking forward to seeing Avenue Q and Spelling Bee when I return to NY. (Hopefully! As well as Curtains and The Drowsy Chaperone).

I Am Adolpho...Danny Burstein is just TOO much in that song.
Am I seriously the first person to mention that one?

Big A$$ Rock, I cracked up completely! (And that was only the cast recording).

The Song That Goes Like This is hilarious live.

I was with my grandma and my cousin when I first saw Spamalot...and we're all jewish. MY GRANDMOTHER HAD TEARS IN HER EYES she was laughing so hard.


I love that song so much.
