Better "A Class Act" (Check this one out if you haven't heard it, you'll see why Ed Kleban's contribution is what made the " Chorus Line" score work.)

Nowadays "Chicago"

Something Wonderful "The King and I"

Til We Reach That Day "Ragtime"

I'd Give My Life For You "Miss Saigon"

[jv92]

Posted: 10/7/06 at 10:02pm

1. I'm Still Here (Follies)
2. Soliloquy (Carousel)
3. When You're Good to Mama (Chicago)
4. Loads of Love (No Strings)
5. Lesson #8 (Sunday in the Park With George)

My opinion will probably change by tomorrow, but I do really love those songs. A top ten would be easier.
