So I had my "Rent" phase, my "Wicked" phase, My "Secret Garden" phase, and I'm now back on to my "BARE: a pop Opera" phase complete with never ending Michael Arden phase. so... What is your current Obsession?

Rent (and Anthony Rapp) Not sure I'll ever get over it. I'm starting to like Wicked but it will never replace Rent
You must think I'm still sixteen.
I dropped out of high school for a reason.
And I don't care if you're pretty. I'm not admitting you are right.
My soul is not a stage.
I won't pretend I'm anything I'm not
my Phantom obsession has been going on for like 2 years now...i don't know if I'm ever going to get pass it!
Back, he spurred like a madman, shrieking a curse to the sky. With the white road smoking behind him and his rapier brandished high! Blood-red were the spurs i' the golden noon; wine-red was his velvet coat, when they shot him down on the highway, down like a dog on the highway, and he lay in his blood on the highway, with the bunch of lace at his throat...

I second the Mikey in the scarf and cute keppy cap phase!
What a punim!

Not Broadway (well, semi-related), but Matt Caplan's "Overtones" has been playing absolutely non-stop on my ipod.

Fiddler on the Roof.... I never knew how amazing the show was until I sat down and listened to both cast albums in their entirety... absolutly bbeautiful.

I'd have to agree with "The Last 5 Years." I just bought this recording a couple weeks ago and was blown away. "The Schmuel Song" is great!! And I also have to admit that my Taboo recording has snuck up on me and made a comeback after laying dormant on shelf for quite some time...it hasn't left the CD player in my car for a while.
our school has a "facebook" group titled 'i have memorized all of rent' with ~250 members... and everyone in there knows just about every word of the libretto. i guess i'm obsessed with that. and ditzy food network personalities.
and what not to wear is amazing in the "i hate you clinton & stacy for being so mean... oh you do have some good advice..." etc sort of way.
