Thread Name: Favorite Broadway show tunes (songs)
Subject: RE: Favorite Broadway show tunes......
Finnegan's Rainbow is a favorite. I like "Look to the Rainbow" and "That Old Devil Moon." Also Camelot, for the title song, and "I Wonder What the King is Doing Tonight." I also love Mary Poppins,especially "Chim Chimany" and "Feed the Birds". Hair had some good tunes, including "Let the Sun Shine In",Where Do I Go", and "One." West Side Story for "Maria","America","When You're a Jet", and "Tonight." I have great affection for "I Was Born Under a Wanderin Star" from Paint Your Wagon,especially as sung by Lee Marvin. If I have a bad hangover or a miserable cold,I can approximate his tone. "Summertime" from Porgy and Bess is one of the greatest songs ever written. "Sit Down Yer Rockin' the Boat" is great from Guys and Dolls.

What was the heart-rending tune from Oliver,sung by the kid in the title role? And another from Man of LaMancha,sung by DonQuixote, that was very inspirational?
