I don't know about best, but my favorite is Prayer. 

 

I think lots of people will say Me and the Sky, but I found it out of place

"Stop the World" and "Somewhere in the Middle of Nowhere" are my favorites. I actively dislike "Welcome to the Rock" which has become the show anthem.

yes to The Prayer as well. Also, Me and the Sky; Something's Missing & Heave Away/Screech In.

A Chorus Line revival played its final Broadway performance on August 17, 2008. The tour played its final performance on August 21, 2011. A new non-equity tour started in October 2012 played its final performance on March 23, 2013. Another non-equity tour launched on January 20, 2018. The tour ended its US run in Kansas City and then toured throughout Japan August & September 2018.

Welcome to the Rock and Me & The Sky are the obvious choices. But Prayer was a completely gorgeous and creative song. And Something's Missing was so emotional and really hit home.

Just a few off the top of my head:

"Prayer" (which is ironic, because I'm an atheist)

"Heave Away"

"Welcome to the Rock" (which I'm surprised to say is really growing on me, as I didn't particularly care for it when I first saw it performed on TV)

I agree with those above but I also love 28 Hours/Wherever We Are and how it captures the initial fear and confusion turned insanity/madness of the passengers stuck on board the planes/

I catch myself repeating Heave Away a lot more than I expected... such a fun song. But the "best song" to me is hands down Me and the Sky.

While I agree with what everyone else has said, I am Here is one of the most beautiful songs in show. The desperation in her voice is heartbreaking. You can feel her pain which a lot of cast recordings dont convey

It is indeed hard to find a good song in CFA in my opinion, but I must admit I enjoy "Me & The Sky". 

Not sure why anyone would want to listen to a song with these vomit-inducing lyrics. But to each their own.

Make me a channel of your peace:
Where there is hatred
Let me bring your love
Where there is injury
Your pardon, Lord
And where there's doubt
True faith in you

 

 

Give me claws and a hunch, just away from this bunch.

Bro you know that's an actual hymn? They didn't write those lyrics, they brought in an actual song that means a lot to a lot of people.

"The Prayer" is actually four real hymns. One Christian(Catholic), one Jewish, one Muslim & one Hindi. It's really a breathtaking piece in the show.
