The two songs that had me laughing hysterically were "Dainty June and her Farmboys" moment with the cow at City Center. To be fair, it was my first time ever hearing the number and the June was hilarious, as was deadpan Benanti underneath that cow head.

Also the song in Drowsy Chaperone that held the spit take, Love is Always Lovely in the End. The song itself might not have been funny, but that moment was a riot.

"I Am Adolpho" makes me laugh every time I hear it! "You Won't Succeed On Broadway" cracks me up, as does a bunch of stuff from Avenue Q and Urinetown.

"What Kind of Man?"-CURTAINS
"Rental Cruelty" and the title song from the off-Broadway revue SHOWING OFF.
Dorothy Loudon's insane rendition of "Losing My Mind/You Could Drive a Person Crazy"
Donna Murphy's hilarious "One Hundred Easy Ways" and "Conga" from WONDERFUL TOWN.
Audra McDonald's "Raunchy," I remember laughing so hard at the theatre during the line "I'll pour peroxide on my hea...no, I'm not doing that, no." Genius.


"Some people can thrive and bloom living life in a living room, that's perfect for some people of one hundred and five. But I at least gotta try, when I think of all the sights that I gotta see, all the places I gotta play, all the things that I gotta be at"

And "Love is My Legs"!

"A Little Priest," easily. I have listened to that song countless times and it never fails to have me laughing out loud.

Oh, and most of 'Evil Dead: The Musical'. It can be difficult when watching the films straight to realise that a lot of humour went into the making of 'em, but the musical really complements and confirms that. VERY true to the spirit, and VERY funny. :3
