Nope, I didn't go with "Luck Be a Lady." This one's a lot more fun. I like it when musicals have really fun songs.
|
 |
I thought The King and I and The Sound of Music were the same thing for the longest time. This song especially convinced me. It's such a Sound of Music song. Rodgers and Hammerstein really needed to diversify.

Click click fsss.

See, if I knew more about musicals, I wouldn't keep learning about the origins of songs like this.
|
 |
I felt I should feature one My Fair Lady song, but it's not really a musical I'm intimately familiar with. I do know this song though, so that should count for something!
|
 |
Finally, some Sondheim! Now these are the songs I know. West Side Story has the best songs and three of them come one right after another in the show, starting with the fantastic "Maria."
|
|
I said I liked fun songs. This one makes me want to live in America.
|
|
But this show provided more than just the fun songs. "Tonight" and "Somewhere" are just two great love standards.
|
|
I had to drop "I Feel Pretty" for this one. So enjoy it!
|
 |
Hey, this is the first musical that I actually like the whole way through, music, story and all. It only took until 1957 for Broadway to get it right. This signature song really sells it for me.
|
|
But, like I said, it's all about the fun songs.
|
|
Yep, fun songs or bust.
|
 |
"Only one Sound of Music song?!" This is my list and I like West Side Story and The Music Man a lot more, sorry. "Yeah, but 'Do-Re-Mi' is the one you picked?!" Shut up, it's my favorite.
