We must have different Gods. My God said "do to others what you would have them do to you". Your God seems to have said "My Way or the Highway".

"Someone Else's Story" - CHESS
The entire score of Taboo is great
"The Oldest Profession" - THE LIFE
"Easy Money" - THE LIFE
"Use What You Got" - THE LIFE
Any songs from Sondheim flops are incredible.

"Everybody says Don't" ANYONE CAN WHISTLE
"Forever Yours" "Waiting for Life" ONCE ON THIS ISLAND
Most of LITTLE WOMEN especially "Astonishing" "Somethings are Meant to Be" "Small Umbrella in the Rain" and I personally like, "The Weekly Volcano Press" Thank god Suttons performances are perserved on the album. :)
"Not a Day Goes By"
I dont know if you want to consider LONE STAR LOVE a flop since it didnt make it to broadway, but it was schueduled to go to broadway. it got canceled after seattle. I saw it in seattle and loved the score. Highlights: "Count on my Love" "Prairie Moon" "World of Men" "Texas Wind" "Carry me Home"

"Someone Else's Story" - Chess
"Nobody's Side" - Chess
"Whistle Down the Wind" - Whistle Down the Wind
EVERYTHING from THE WOMAN IN WHITE!
And I could name a bunch of songs form the huge finicial flop of SUNSET BOULEVARD, or the finicial flop of JEKYLL & HYDE, but I figure those shows really shouldn't be considered flops (maybe Sunset?!).

Garlic? A "great" song? With lyrics like this, somehow I doubt it:
Garlic, garlic, the secret of staying young
Garlic, garlic, it's why we're so well hung
DOTV is so hilarious

ScaryWarhol, yes, the Metropolis musical IS actually about the Fritz Lang film. It is a musical adaption by, guess who... "In my Life" creator Joe Brooks.
But it has a few decent songs in the score. Not too many though in my opinion.
