Don't get me started - am a HUGE fan of musicals . I love, love, love 'you are my lucky star'(had an old friend who used to sing it to me) from singing in the rain and almost all tunes from 7 brides. I'm a bit of a fan of old films, there's a song in 'blythe spirit' called 'always' which I love too.

This one's a bit obscure, but unbearably lovely. Mario Lanza singing Moonlight Serenade from the Student Prince.

And we also have the soundtrack to Easter Parade in the car. I love Easter Parade.
