Top 5:
"Someone Else's Story" --Chess OBC
"Lost In the Wilderness" --Children of Eden Off-B'way
"Lily's Eyes" --The Secret Garden
"I Still Believe" --Miss Saigon OLC
"Astonishing" --Little Women
"Finishing the Hat" from the Sunday in the Park with George workshop audio I have. (It's so perfect. The tempo Mandy takes, which is slightly faster than he did on Broadway and on the OBCR, is brilliant and his voice sounds spectacular)
"Home" from 70, Girls, 70 is bizarrely enough number two. I guess I can explain. Once you listen to it, you can't stop. It's THAT infectious.

"Sunday" - Sunday in the Park With George 2006 London Recording
and "Out Tonight" - Rent OBC seem to be tied. Hmm.
LOL Since my last post like two weeks ago, my former leader, A Little Priest has been knocked off by If Momma Was Married.
oh my god.. so was totally curious and the show tune winner is "No Good Deed"
I have listened to it a whopping 243 times. Wow. I'm a NY-er so my Ipod is my lifeline.. but still.
Mine is 'I Believe In Love' from the Actor's Fund Production of Hair. Played 78 times.
It's a short song and the vocals are incredible.
It is followed by 'My Junk' and 'The Bitch Of Living' from Spring Awakening.
Although I'm sure that, if iPods had existed when I was in public school, 'One Day More' from Les Mis would have been the winner. I listened to that entire album about 1,500 times.

1) If Only from the demo recording of The Little Mermaid with Kerry Butler and whoever sung for Eric...i fergot his name...
Ahhh the days of extreme mermaid obsession
2) My Junk...the song is like 2 minutes long of course it gets played a lot
3) Legally Blonde (the song)
Number one is too embarrassing, so I'm gonna skip that.
The Music and the Mirror - Donna McKechnie
I honestly didn't know what Theatre song was most played on my iPod (I have a Musical Theatre playlist with almost 700 songs on it, criteria being it must be in English, with no more than 5 songs from a musical, but I can include revivals, West End runs, and live performances/concerts as long as a person is playing the character all the way through (so no benifit concerts). I listen to this playlist constantly on shuffle mode in the car and on the bus ride to work.
So imagine my surprise when the most played song right now is "Magic" from "Xanadu"!
Second is "But Alive" from "Applause".
Third is "The Revolutionary Costume For Today" from "Grey Gardens" (Broadway Version).
Strange combo... concidering my top three favorite musicals are "Company" (OBC), "Sunset Boulevard" (LA Cast), and "Chicago" (Broadway Revival)...
Top 5
1. The Seven Deadly Virtues - Camelot
2. Manic Depressives - Prettybelle
3. What I've Been Looking For - HSM
4. Army Song - The Threepenny Opera
5. Funny - City of Angels
Ha. Ashley Brown's "A Change in Me".
