as much as i hate these things, i also find them irresistable.

as a purest, i went with on those pieces he wrote the music and lyrics; no order:

"Send in the Clowns" from A Little Night Music
"Sorry/Grateful" from Company
"Move On" from Sunday in the Park with George
"Loving You" from Passion
"No One is Alone" from Into the Woods

How can I not include something from his masterpiece "Sweeney Todd"? (I also love "What Can You Lose" from Dick Tracy) and "Assassins" and ..........
