Your Top 5 Favorite Showtunes

[americanboy99]

Posted: 9/30/06 at 9:47pm

List, in order (1 being the best), your all-time favorite showtunes and the show from which they come. This may take some hard thought, but it should be interesting to see how many of the same song show up and how many of one composer shows up.

My Picks:

5. The Beauty Is (THE LIGHT IN THE PIAZZA)
4. Suddenly Seymour (LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS)
3. One Day More (LES MISERABLES)
2. All That Jazz (CHICAGO)
1. Cabaret (CABARET)

Wow! That was very hard!
