^^^ I can get behind all those, but I'd like to add Cabaret. Just about any incarnation of it is grand.

Miss Saigon. It stays with, haunts, and becomes part of me. I would never forget the first time I heard Kim singing Dju Vui Vai in her confrontation with Thuy and it hit me so deep.

Absolutely Miss Saigon.
The way it is written is very haunting and the singing never feels out of place or musical-parody, as in most other shows.

Personally, I think Cabaret. It's so subjective though.

Are we talking just stage musicals, or do screen musicals count?
Because if screen musicals count, I'd say "Singin' in the Rain."

I've got to go with Gypsy. Perfect score (even Little Lamb). Perfect book. Amazing parts for great actors.

RAGGEDY ANN or INTO THE LIGHT. It's always a toss up between those two.

Why not My Fair Lady? It is, in my opinion, a great piece of theater and a near-perfect musical.
Other great musicals: Sweeney Todd, Carousel, Chicago, Gypsy, Follies, Guys and Dolls

That's kind of like asking "What's the best hip-hop musical ever...Do not say Hamilton"
