Just been listening to 'Bring Him Home' from Les Miserables. I think it's got to be my most favourite song from all the musicals. Brings a tear to my eye every time!! Such amazing lyrics.

What's yours?

Do You Hear the People Sing - Les Mis
Defying Gravity - Wicked

Couldn't pick a favourite out of those three as all are amazing.

The finale of the first half of West Side Story, where everyone is singing different things.

I wanted to join in, but could not find just one song I loved. Each musical has songs I love - Empty Chairs and Empty Tables, All That Jazz, There's a Place for Us, On The Street Where You Live, Gethsemane ... There are so many!

'Stars from Les Mis.'

Such a wonderful song. Really helps you to understand a very difficult character. Lots of very powerful songs in Les Miserables actually

Love most of Hamilton but Guns & Ships or The Battle For Yorktown are enduring favourites. Oh and Who Lives Who Dies Who Tells Your Story.

Really can't choose one song but am listening to the Chess soundtrack atm. Very much overlooked IMO.

There are some absolute crackers there.
Someone Else's Story
Anthem
You and I

Think a playlist of everyone's favourites is in order!
