okay im gonna hvae to add my vote to carrie.... thos mother/daughter songs, so epic.
My next contribution is on the stipulation that it gets a reworking back to its original London version(with perhaps a couple minor changes). The musical I am talking about is CHESS... Its, without a doubt, time for this musical to be shown on broadway wiht a good book that can fit its amazing score!!!
The original London had a couple of flaws but worked so much better then any of the other rewrites.

"Gerard needs to put back Chita and Rita in FB"

That song should never, ever be removed from Forbidden Broadway! It's probably my favorite one.

Speaking of "Paint Your Wagon" lol I was watching The Simpsons last night when they have the musical clip show, and they mock Paint Your Wagon. Very funny episode.
