I think Giants in the Sky is a wonderful song.

I really can't stand Surabaya Santa from Songs for a New World, and People from Funny Girl (not a Barbara fan..sorry). I think Hairspray, in its intentional campiness, is one of those things you have to be SEEING to appreciate. Its not quite a musical masterpiece, it just is what it is. Still, Baltimore Crabs is particularly obnoxious.

Music of the Night is way overplayed. I'm getting tired of hearing it every where. Heck, yesterday I was at Best Buy and it was playing. And it was like, a pop version. Ahhh!

Absolutely #1 has to be 'Tomorrow' from Annie. If for no other reason I refuse to ever watch the movie.

'I'm Just a Girl Who Cain't Say No' from Oklahoma- and also on the Western theme-
'Doin' What Comes Natchurly' or however the hell they spell it, from 'Annie Get your Gun'

And my all-time stinker- 'I Enjoy Being A Girl' from Flower Drum Song, which I had to sing in 7th grade choir and permanently traumatized me.... 'I'm a girl and by me that's only great! I am proud that my silhouette is curvy, that I walk with a sweet and girlish gait, with my hips kind of swivelly and swervey...' I wanted to crawl under a rock every time I had to sing it.

Sarabaya Santa? Annoying? I find that song hysterical!

>I am going to have to say all the Music from :

>Bye Bye Birdie!

Y'know, I did Bye Bye Birdie (in High School, but I did it.) and I was getting ready to fire off a major defense of the show until I stopped and thought about that damn score.

You're right. Almost every song in that damn thing was annoying! It was like, they were trying to do a deliberate slam on "pop music." Well, they wrote it in the 50s-60s, maybe they were!

Two of the most annoying songs ever written in the history of mankind were little ditties written for a movie musical version of "Shangra La " called "Lost Horizon". Thhey were "Question Me An Answer" & "The World Is A Circle". This score has to be one of the worst ever written for stage or screen & these 2 songs are the worse of a bad batch.

A lot of what is being sung in The Boy From Oz.

Music of the Night from Phantom

Into the Woods is an excellent score, but it contains two the worst songs Sondheim has ever written, the saccharine No One Is Alone and the totally useless The Last Midnight.

Memory from Cats, unless sung by Elaine Paige.

By The Sea in Sweeney Todd.

Mr. Roxy, at the risk of being labelled over-picky, "Lost Horizon" is a musical version of "Lost Horizon," not "Shangri La." "Lost Horizon" was originally a novel by James Hilton that was filmed by Frank Capra in the 1930s.

Point well taken but it basically was a musical of the Shanra La story - They are still 2 annoying songs

*Anything from "Cats" (even Memory has been beaten into the ground)
* Tomorrow from "Annie"
*Ribbons Down My Back
*Anything from "Mama Mia"

I absolutely DESPISE Memory from Cats with a passion! Once upon a midnight dreary I was obsessed with that song, but now I can't even bear to think about it! LoL.
Castle On a Cloud- and Les Mis is my favorite show! I have the 10th anniversary recording and the girl playing young Cosette frightens me.
Without You- RENT is my baby, but I just CANNOT stand this song. That's the only song I never bothered to memorize on the entire recording.
The Impossible Dream- Don't even get me started...

I'm sure there is much more, I'm just having a huge brain fart.

Princess MimiChica: I absolutely love RENT with all my heart, but you have to realize that not everyone is a RENTHead like us. I think it's only necessary to defend the show if someone slams it without even giving it the slightest chance. You do have good points though. PM if you ever want to talk about the show! :)

OH! I forgot the ENTIRE recording of Mamma Mia... I know it's wrong to say, but that's just whack yourself upside the head with a blunt object annoying. Sorry if I offended anyone!

I really am sick of hearing RENT being called "annoying"! obviously if she songs were annoying, it wouldnt still be on Broadway!
Anyone who can call the entire score of that show annoying is really kidding themselves and trying too hard to be different and go against something thats popular.
Oh well, let the flames begin!

There are things called O-P-I-N-I-O-N-S. Anf if EVERYONE on the board decided to defend their favorite show in this thread just because one or two people said they didn't like it, imagine the chaos. CALM DOWN.

Seasons of Love -- RENT

Posted: 11/30/03 at 7:05pm

I TOTALY agree with MimiShaqa! If you think Rent is annying you are just trying to be different by not likeing what is popular becaus evrybody knows that if something is poplar it has to be good!! So just liten up and keep negativity to yourself and be happy!! LOL!!

That song from Oklahoma.."She went about as fur as she could go" Not sure of the title but it makes me want to scream.

"Memory" from Cats...The girl who sang this in some talent show had this whiny annoying voice and I've hated it since, even with someone else. Eesh.

Anything & everything from Sound of Music- I was Liesl in it awhile back...enough said.

Also, I went through this Annie phase when I was little and I cannot listen to anything from it anymore.

Princess MimiChica: I'm a huge fan of RENT too, seen it multiple times and everything. But it's sort of a show that you either love love love or can't stand. I find the entire score of Annie & Sound of Music horribly bad, so people can think all of Rent is pretty much the same. And about 'if it was annoying it wouldn't be on Broadway'...CATS ran for a long, long time, and it was pretty damn annoying. People are allowed to have their own opinions and not be flamed for "trying too hard to be different". That's what message boards are for. Need I go into the spiel of "If we were all the same, the world would be boring"? I think not.

I'm going to have go with ye old standards of "Tomorrow", "Castle on A Cloud", "Memory" becuase I have heard way too many kids singing them at auditions! Scary! And "Baltimore Crabs" just because I can't stand it!
