OK, so on Facebook, there's a thing called the 30 Day Musical Theatre Song Challenge where every day you pick one song from musical theatre under a specific title...I was thinking I'd ask you guys every day to name one song each for every title for a bit of fun :)

So, day one is...

A song from your first musical.

Okay, don't through any books at me, but

Memory "Cats" *winces*

After the long phase of watching dancing cats I learned to appreciate a good score, which is something this one ain't!

Well, it'll have to be 'One More Angel in Heaven' from Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat. It's the first musical I remember knowing and that's still my favourite song from it. XD

Oh, I thought you meant first Broadway musical...
Well, if it's just first musical in general, "Be Our Guest", Beauty and the Beast".

I did kind of mean Broadway. Or West End, for us Englishmen (and women).

My first West End show was Chitty, so... :)

My first musical was the tour of Bye Bye Birdie w/ Tommy Tune. But if you're not counting that it would be Miss Saigon.
