If you asked me a month ago it would have been:
"It Sucks To Be Me" not anymore so i am not sure.
Hopefully it would not be Everything Is Only For Now.
I thought about it:
I'm 30 Years Old- (Gerard's version of Tommorrow)
Glosse Fosse Them
Purpose
I Hate Ben
I AM Chita and not Rita
Gimmee Gimmee (Gerards version)
You Can't Stop My Seat
I Used To Be The King
I Want To Be A Producer
Short People Have No Reason To Live
Dreamgirls
Fantasies Do Come True!

For Good from Wicked
Blood on the Ground by Incubus (can I use non-musical songs?)
Seasons of Love and Rent from Rent

That's all I can think of now.

The Stud/Babe song from LPC.
"He Called Me" from LPC.
"Wishing you were somehow here again" (only, not in relation to my dad)
"Painting Her Portrait" from Jane Eyre
and "B*tch" by Meredith Brooks
followed by an amazing rendition of "New York, New York" performed by Frank Sinatra, and "Stupid" and "Full of Grace" by Sarah McLachlan...the musical would end with the final notes of Sarah McLachlan's "Last Dance"

Wait, so I don't get to pick a cast of characters??? That's not cool... I might just have to do that anyway.. This requires too much thought though... I think I have to go away, figure this out and get back to you.

Thank you for giving me something to entertain myself.... cause I'm bored out of my freaking mind right now lol

Avenue Q pretty much sums up my life. But if I had to assemble songs from a whole list of musicals, my song list would look something like this:

"It Sucks to be Me" - Avenue Q
"Purpose" - Avenue Q
"There's A Fine, Fine Line" - Avenue Q
"You Can't Stop the Beat" - Hairspray
"On My Own" - Les Miz
"Role of a Lifetime" - Bare
"Are You There" - Bare
"Being Alive" - Company
"The Last Night of the World" - Miss Saigon
"Losing My Mind" - Follies
"Maybe This Time" - Cabaret
"Elaborate Lives" - Aida
"Where Is Love" - Oliver

in regards to CJR-u can create a cast if u want-its kinda freaky to think who you'd have to play YOU

Dunno about the complete score, but certainly "Mr Cellophane" and "The Roads You Never Take" (from Follies) would seem appropriate. Actually, almost anything from Follies would seem appropriate. :)

"Purpose"- Avenue Q
"La Vie Boheme"- Rent
"On My Own"- Les Miserables, but who doesn't need this song at one time?
"Climbing Uphill"- L5Y
"Bring On the Men"- Jekyll and Hyde
"Who I Am"- Jekyll and Hyde
"A Lot of Livin' to Do"- Bye Bye Birdie
"O Suave Fancuilla"- La Boheme, although it doesn't really fit. Still, it would be awesome to have that and "Quando Men Vo" in there.
"Little Spaceman"- Convenience, another one of those "everybody should have this one" type songs

Wow, this was harder than it looks. I may post more later... Updated On: 7/21/04 at 01:25 AM
