Sunday Morning/Lot's Wife/ Salty Teardrops-- Caroline, Or Change
This is so intense with the visit from Dottie and how Dottie is almost a foil to Caroline, pursuing her dreams and going back to college. That lead into Lot's Wife (the emotional climax of the show) and then Salty Teardrops with the instrumental introduction where Caroline and Emmie embrace!!! That is love.

Urban quite literally took the words out of my mouth with:
Your Daddy's Son/The Courtship/New Music/Wheels of a Dream - RAGTIME
I also really like the I'll Cover You (Reprise)/Halloween/Goodbye Love block of RENT.

"Pretty Women," "Epiphiny," "A Little Priest." Undoubtedly the best threesome in musical theatre history - maybe the best 15 minutes in the history of American theatre, but that's another thread.
It's followed, though not closely at all, by "Your Daddy's Son," "New Music," and "Wheels of a Dream." Thought it's a lot closer than any other set.

Posted: 12/22/05 at 6:15pmI'm a little confused by some of these posts - are you telling me that "Upon These Stones" is REALLY one of your favorite songs? One Day More and On My Own, yes, but they're not TRULY linked by a great song as some others that have been mentioned. That's a bit of a cheat...
