Anything in the Wild Party
Well to join the rest of the crowd, I agree that "You Can't Stop the Beat" is a pretty infectious song.
Other favorites include:
"Sugar" - TICK, TICK... BOOM
"Run, Freedom, Run" - URINETOWN
"Forget About the Boy" - THOROUGHLY MODERN MILLIE
and basically anything from ALTAR BOYZ :)
Jellicle Songs for Jellicle Cats, it always makes me want to dance and kick like they do!
