Master of the house
quick to catch yer eye
Never wants a passerby to pass him by
Servant to the poor, butler to the great
Comforter, philosopher and life long mate...

Oh, and the other one:

I believe in love
I believe in love
I believe in love
I do believe in love
I believe that now is a time for all good men to believe in love...

I guess that depends on which arrangement you hear of "I Believe in Love," but the one they did at Encores! was so damn catchy.

"The Game" - Damn Yankees
"The Rain in Spain" - My Fair Lady
"You Did It" - My Fair Lady (Oh my lord. When I was in this show, all it took for this song to get stuck in my head for HOURS at a time was for someone in passing to say "you did it," and they didn't even have to be talking to me)
"Fabulous Feet" - The Tap Dance Kid
"Go Into Your Dance" - 42nd Street

Lately, "The Gods Love Nubia" from Aida has been stuck in my head CONSTANTLY but I don't know how much of that is about it being catchy and how much of that is about being a Nubian in that show.

ANYTHING from La Cage! I've had "With Ann On My Arm" stuck in my head from the minute I walked out of church this morning. Don't know why. Yesterday it was "La Cage Aux Folles" and "Put A Little More Mascara On."
Other candidates: "Oh What a Beautiful Morning"; and "Oklahoma" from Oklahoma; "America" and "I Feel Pretty" from WWS.
I guess that's a lot of tunes, but they all get in my head and require divine intervention to dislodge.

I Feel Pretty...Ihave forgotten the backstage pain of hearing that song every night.

KRISTEN CHENOWETH To show my gratitude, I'll offer you this pointy black hat, which is just like the one Original Wicked Witch Margaret Hamilton wore in the movie! IDINA MENZEL What a great idea! How about throughout the play, you continue to offer me things like a black cloak, or a black cape, or a broom to make me look more and more like Margaret Hamilton did! These attempts at humor will be painfully predictable from a mile away! AUDIENCE collectively groans.

"Popular" - Wicked

I've known people who have only heard the song once, but will spend the next few days walking around singing the "pop-u-ler" part.

From a classic musical: My Fair Lady (I have grown accostumed to her face)
From a modern musical: DRS (Love sneaks in)

Norbert Leo Butz quotes about John Lithgow: "He's really clumsy. One of the joys in life is to watch a great big huge man totally wipe out backstage. It takes John about three minutes to hit the floor. It's like watching a Great Sequoia falling gracelessly."

Sorry, this may be a tad late, but shouldn't it be "catchiest" instead of "most catchy"?

This is my signature.

Aigoo, I am myself a grammar fiend, but I am unsure of "catchiest" or "most catchy." The general rule in English is that if the word contains two or more syllables, it is proceeded by "most." According to this rule, it would be "most catchy."

I also agree with "You Can't Stop the Beat." What do you think of "Willkommen" from Cabaret? Whenever I hear that song I can't get it out of my head.

You cant stop the beat... or more specifically, the "motion of the ocean" line.
