Wicked: Something Bad & Sentimental Man
Hairspray: Timeless to Me & I Know Where I've Been
The Last Five Years: The Last Ten Minutes (I HATE this song and I have no idea why)
As a side note am I the only one who listens to "A Message From John Lithgow" when listening to DRS? It always cracks me up :)

Hehe...me too...and it's only like 20 seconds, so it would be ridiculous to skip it.

Posted: 12/29/05 at 10:40pmI think I just said in the other thread that I can listen to "Sunday in the Park With George" the whole way through, but I totally lied. I tend to skip "Day Off". It drives me crazy. I try to give it a chance and then I'm all, "Yo, stop being a dog, it's weird."

Hairspray - Hairsrpay and Cooties.
Wicked - Emerald City and Dancing Through Life. To tell the truth, I close my eyes and plug my ears for these in the theater as well.

I remember days
Or at least I try
But as years go by
They're sort of haze
And the bluest ink
Isn't really sky
And at times I think
I would gladly die
For a day of sky

And Starbucks will use the words 'large' and 'small', not pretentious crap like grande and tall.

I hate to admit this but I usually skip over "Special" from Avenue Q. Its my least favorite song in the show, not my least favorite performance though! 
Happy...Everything!

Posted: 12/30/05 at 1:41amI generally try not to skip over tracks, but something about 'Castle on a Cloud' (from Les Miz) creeps me out! :-P
#35re: What tracks do you skip over?
Posted: 12/30/05 at 2:18amI skip "Purpose" in Ave Q. I like it in the show just fine, but I like listening to "If You Were Gay," "Everyone's a Little Bit Racist" and "The Internet is for P0rn" as a little group, w/out "Purpose" being in there.

Almost every song that Chita is NOT in on the "Kiss of the Spider Woman" OBC (or was it an OLC??)
I listen to the whole thing on the Vanessa Williams OBC Alternate though, I liked the men better on that one and they left in more dialouge.
I also alway skip most of the "Betty Schaffer" tunes on "Sunset Blvd."

There are too many songs from too many Cast Recording that I skip. But I'll list a few:
Agony(both) Into the Woods. Hate that song. Ironically I played Repunzil's Prince.
Somewhere that's Green. LSOH
Any slow song in The Music Man (but Marian the Librarian)
Little Lamb Gypsy
I like the songs Wonderful and Something Bad from Wicked, but I can't stand Sentimental Man and Thank Goodness

I HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE the song "Letter to the Governer" from Parade.
i always skip it.
You must think I'm still sixteen.
I dropped out of high school for a reason.
And I don't care if you're pretty. I'm not admitting you are right.
My soul is not a stage.
I won't pretend I'm anything I'm not

OH!!! This is a perfect time to put out there my one song theory! I believe - i don't know if any agree with me - that every musical has at least one song that so doesn't need to be there. Sometimes they are crucial to the plot but you just wish that they weren't there coz they're so painful to listen to. some of mine are:
maison des lune - b&theb
Mr Cellophane - chicago
dancing on the sidewalk - fame
morning report - lion king
dog eat dog and castle on a cloud - les miz
cooties - hairspray
like father like son - aida
to name a few.

Not to sound snobbish or anything - but some of you really put your taste in question with the songs you skip... Suddenly Seymour and Somewhere That's Green? Music of the Night and All I Ask of You?
"Slow songs" in Music Man - like Goodnight My Someone and My White Knight??? The Last Ten Minutes and The Schmuel Song?
Honestly, I'm not getting this at all! I mean, some songs listed here are pretty baaaaaaaaaaaad....

Posted: 12/31/05 at 3:22pmUsually I skip over I Should Tell You, so that I can get to La Vie Boheme B faster.

Posted: 12/31/05 at 3:31pmThe only reason I skip Over The Moon is so I can get to La Vie Boheme sooner, but I do almost always skip it. I also skip What Was A Woman To Do on DRS because I want to get to Great Big Stuff. And also, Schroeder from YAGMCB. Is that the name? It's the one Lucy sings on the 2nd track. The combination of her purposefully annoying voice and the slow song is just painful.
