If you had to choose between the three urchins from little shop, the trio from Caroline or the Dynamites from Hairspray, who would you choose (I'm not including the Trio from TBFO cuz they don't really have solos, they're more featured back-up singers, but if you like 'em more, I guess it counts)?

How about Crystal, Ronette, and Chiffon? (LSOH) I believe that those are the names.

Oh trust me--I know the names (cuz they get my vote).

Oh snap, I didn't read it correctly.
They get my pick, or the Caroline girls. Hairspray Dynamites- last place.
awww i liked the dynamites... but then i haven't seen the other 2 shows, so i guess my vote doesn't count much...
the urchins
I love the Dynamites from Hairspray! They get a chance to belt it like nobody's business!

w/out a doubt THE RADIO FROM CAROLINE!!! they rox my sox!
As an ex-Seymour I have to give props to my sexy spunky trio of Urchins. I love those girls and they can be the highlight of the show.

urchins, dynamites i havent seen coc
As a former Crystal (yes, in little surburban towns like mine, 4'11" red headed white girls get to be Crystal!) I would have to say the Little Shop trio. I saw all three shows on Broadway, and the Dynamites really didn't have MUCH to do...they weren't memorable like the urchins are. The Radio from Caroline or Change is great, but they just didn't make me scream and woo hoo like the awesome Bway Little Shop gals did...and I think the LSOH gals also get my vote because they each have a character and personality that the audience can distinguish them as separate people and not just a group, which is awesome, because lots of times where there are "groups" it's hard to distinguish different personalities.
gotta go with the Urchins!

the urchins from LSOH are the best, they steal the show every night
Have seen all 3...gotta go sixteen feet below sea level. Talkin' to the washer and the...radio! Those girls rock. Their harmony is impeccable.
the urchins then the Dynamites in close second... one of them is making the switch from urchin to dynamite do.. it's all good! lol
I haven't seen Hairspray yet (a crime, I know) but I'm going to pick the girls from Little Shop. They're amazing!
The Radio are(is?) the hottest trio ever.
I am mega-fawning for them.
AGH, aammaazziinngg.
Truly spectacular...

They must be better live, cuz I didn't think the Radio was that impressive on the CoC cast album, I thought the Urchins were better. I haven't seen or heard Hairspray (altho I've bought the album twice and given it as a gift lol), so I can't judge the Dynamites.
Hey, I have the best girl group: Hugh's backup singers at the Tony's opening number (and, yes, I know, it was all three groups!) They were really good together!
you diiiiid not.
how can you say that The Radio is not impressive on the recording?!?!
AGHHH!!!
"The Radio"
"Santa Comin' Caroline"
"Salty Teardrops"
Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat?
-d.b.j-
Salty Teardrops....the best! And it blew me away live! There is a thread on here regarding the broadcast and possible DVD of the show. I can't wait!
1) Urchins
2) Radio
3) Dynamites
They are all phenomenal, though.
(The Dynamites I saw the second time I say Hairspray after Marissa left were really not that good. Compared to the previous, roof-blowing dynamites, they had nothing on them.)
I would have to say that Idina, Kristin and Kristin's head make up the best girl trio.
