Okay,
When I was in 4th grade & chorus was mantitoary fro everybody, our (pretty lame but a nice guy) music teacher made us sing "Do You Hear The People Sing" from Les Mis. And it had always been stuck in my head as one of those kind of annoying chorus songs...but it did get me to want to read the book & see it someday, but I just wasn't a big fan.

When I listen to it now that's still the 1st thing that pops in my head, but of course now I heart Les Miserables.

Same thing with "Seasons of Love" (5th grade), I still cringe a but when they hit the chorus.

"Whatcha Got?" from Zanna Don't. I didn't like it when I first listened to it, and I skipped over it for the longest time. And then, inexplicably, I grew to really like it.

The Schmuel Song from L5Y
"This table, he is over one hundred years old. If I could, I would take an old gramophone needle and run it along the surface of the wood. To hear the music of the voices. All that was said." - Doug Wright, I Am My Own Wife

I thought I posted this already, but guess not.

Popular from Wicked. But then I finally listened to the whole recording and it grew on me.

Season of Love - Not that I didn't like it when I first heard, more that I got sick of hearing it when I first heard it! Love the song, but too much is too much!

I didn't really like "My Unfortunate Erection" from Spelling Bee at first, but now I love it.

I used to skip over "How I Am" on my Little Women cast recording, and now that I've done the show it's my favorite!
"The stage is where I live and come alive and act out all the things that go on in my life. It's not just what I do for a living, it's my shrink and my love affair. No one in my life has ever or ever will kiss me on the mouth like this lover called my relationship with my performance."

The entire revival CD of Chicago. I had been introduced to the show through the movie and I preferred it over the cast recording, but the more I listened to it I just fell in love with it, and now I barely touch my soundtrack to the movie.

"Fantasies Come True" from Avenue Q.
"Who says you can't bend over backwards and eat bugs if you want to? I guess the bugs would probably say you can't do that that, but assuming that they are willing and consenting bugs, then there's no problem. Let's wig out eating bugs." -RuPaul

I hated all of RENT at first...it's still not my all-time favorite, but I can stand it.

"By the Sea" - Sweeney Todd. Now I think it's my favorite.

Did not care for any of the songs from Into the Woods at first but now I'm hooked.

Used to hate Statues and Stories but now, again, hooked.

I used to haate "I'll Cover You". I though it was so tacky and didn't fit in with the rest of the show. Now I think it's wonderful, and I love listening to it.

"Defying Gravity". The first time I heard it was the Tony awards. I decided then and there I never wanted to see "that stupid Wicked show." Then someone got me tickets to the tour for my birthday last year and now I'm a crazy addict.
