Favourite musical songs

[rkahic]

Inspired by the recent thread on favourite 70s songs, I wondered what would be people’s favourite songs from musicals to make a Spotify list with,some of my personal favourites would be,
somewhere west side story
on my own Les Mis
defying gravity wicked
Don’t lose your head six

Six (from Six), actually pretty much any song from Six!

Popular from Wicked
Satisfied-Hamilton
Tell me its not true- Blood Brothers

Pretty much anything from Hamilton - but especially Burn or Satisfied.

Rhythm of life from Sweet Charity
Most of the Sound of Music
When I Grow Up from Matilda

Anything from SIX! except Catherine Parr's (boring)
Jesus Christ Superstar... from the first electric guitar chord in the overture to the very last note... (I'm going to see it for the 9th time on thursday!)
Don't Cry for Me Argentina
Maybe this Time (Caberet)

On my own from Les Mis is an all time favourite! (Though the entire soundtrack is amazing and makes me cry)
Suddenly Seymour from Little Shop of Horrors
Defying Gravity from Wicked
When You’re Good to Mumma from Chicago

could go on and on but this is the top 4 at this moment in time 😂

I’m going to go with Hasa Diga Eebowai from Book of Mormon 😂

Love me a musicals playlist - off top of my head... (But would probably change tomorrow)
