What's your favorite Sondheim song?
"A Little Priest"
Unless it's an automatic, in which case, it's "Finishing the Hat."

UGH. I should say that Gerard Alessandrini's "INTO THE WORDS"
Is even funnier. And I love his Assassins number.
"I would do anything for you, Stephen darling"

Overall: "Any Moment/Moments in the Woods" - Into the Woods.
Lately: "Move on" from Sunday in the Park
What can I say? I'm a sucker for the carpe diem theme!

Posted: 7/25/05 at 12:33amThe Ballad of Booth is great too. Half comedic and half serious and moves between the two perfectly.

Posted: 7/25/05 at 3:41amAll of the ones mentioned I agree with. One that hasn't been mentioned yet: "Losing My Mind" from FOLLIES which has to be the most neurotic love song ever written.
Cast albums are NOT "soundtracks."
Live theatre does not use a "soundtrack." If it did, it wouldn't be live theatre!
I host a weekly one-hour radio program featuring cast album selections as well as songs by cabaret, jazz and theatre artists. The program, FRONT ROW CENTRE is heard Sundays 9 to 10 am and also Saturdays from 8 to 9 am (eastern times) on www.proudfm.com

"Not a Day Goes By"!!!!! ::drools::
But there are sooo many. I have a very strong attraction to "Sorry-Grateful", just because everytime I listen to it I think about how damn good the lyrics are and it just reminds me how much I love my Sondheim. <3
