I'm going to have to go with Wicked as well. I'll always love it, no matter how popular it gets. Or I might just take out the screaming teeny bopper fangirls. *shrugs*
Starlight Express (adored the LV production, although I was 12/13 at the time)
Legally Blonde (thoroughly enjoyed it after wanting to leave after the first 5 minutes)
I would have to say...
Wicked
Legally Blonde
Cats (this musical really got me into musical theatre)
Seussical
taboo, tarzan, and chess
Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat. It's the only ALW I've listened to more than once!
legally blonde and rent :)
Anyone familiar with 'Paris', about the siege of Troy? Absolutely dire. I love it wholeheartedly.
I hate to admit how much I love a certain blonde girl in a pink dress
Wicked, Annie, Thoroughly Modern Millie, The Pirate Queen
Are you talking about Kristin Chenoweth or Laura Bell Bundy?
I was refering to Laura Bell, but Kristin could apply too (however I don't feel so guilty for loving her)
wicked (i saw it before everyone else and their brother did)
jesus christ superstar (yes, i said it)
joseph
legally blonde
mary poppins
into the woods (old school, for me at least)
Rent Remixed. My friend wanted me to get into RENT so he invited me to his house to listen to an audio he got. Turns out, the audio was Rent Remixed. I endded up likeing some of the songs (especially Happy New Year, RENT and Tango Maureen "my favorite out of those 3") I was impressed with myself that I liked some of the songs.
I have been somewhat inexplicably addicted to the Legally Blonde CD for months now. But it is just so utterly charming that I can't feel all too guilty for that.
Lestat.
Although I admit the stage production (or at least the Broadway one) was seriously flawed, I love Elton's demo recording of Lestat and play it all the time. It's a real shame that the music wasn't allowed to shine on stage, constantly being cut short or faded out for dialogue, never giving the audience a chance to applaud some great performances. Many missed opportunities including the lack of a cast album - recorded but never released.
