Posted: 12/26/10 at 11:49pmMy personal favorite is Les Miz and my favorite lyricist is Stephen Sondheim. Also, what is your favorite musical song lyric?
"Look I made a hat... where there never was a hat."
"Think of how I adore you, think of how much you love me. If I were perfect for you, wouldn't you tire of me?"
"Somebody, crowd me with love. Somebody, force me to care. Somebody, make me come through, I'll always be there, as frightened as you, to help us survive. Being alive. Being alive. Being alive!"
"There are worse things than staring at the water as you're posing for a picture after sleeping on the ferry after getting up at seven to come over to an island in the middle of a river half an hour from the city on a Sunday!"

Phantom. I love everything about it. Every song and every scene.

Posted: 12/27/10 at 12:07amI'm pretty partial to the music from both 'In the Heights' and 'Next to Normal'. Neither one is your 'typical' showtunes. 'Les Miserables' is always a favourite as well.

Wow. That's like who's your favourite child.
Okay, I'll play. Gershwin, first off. While OF THEE I SING is decent enough, I maintain STRIKE UP THE BAND (the play, not the abysmal movie) is his best Broadway score. If you dont know it, seriously, rush to Amazon or iTunes or whatever and look for the Smithsonian recording done about ten years ago. You will walk away convinced we need a revival of this show, even more than GYPSY or all the other redundant classics.
Sondheim. Well, everyone will say that. But it's the OCR of COMPANY that is on my desert island list.
And i have very fond memories of my university's production of YOURE A GOOD MAN, CHARLIE BROWN (not the least of which being I was madly in love with Schroeder before I even understood the concept of being gay) that I have to add that in there too.
