    I love the musical "The Phantom of the Opera". I just saw it Sunday and the music won't leave me in peace. And the phantom himself his songs are hauntingly beautiful. So which ones do you love?:lol:

    I really liked Phantom of the Opera. My all time favourite however is Wicked.

    Wicked is the best. Ever. I mean the song "Defying Gravity" is just breath-takingly done. My boyfriend and I saw it when we went to San Francisco this summer and I was absolutely amazed. My family hasn't seen it, so we are probably going to try and take them when it's in Houston or Dallas this summer.

    The Sound of Music is pretty amazing too.

    "My Fair Lady"
    "The King and I"
    "A Christmas Carol" (the Albert Finney version)
    "The Little Shop of Horrors" (some versions are musicals, including all of the ones I've seen in theater)

    I've compiled a list of the full soundtracks on my iTunes. Mind you, I've left out the musicals from which I only have one or two songs:
    Avenue Q - Original Broadway Cast
    Dr. Horrible's Sing-A-Long Blog
    Grease - Movie Soundtrack
    Kiss Me, Kate
    Les Miserables - 10th Anniversary Edition
    Little Shop of Horrors - Movie Soundtrack
    Moulin Rouge
    The Nightmare Before Christmas
    Once More With Feeling - Buffy the Vampire Slayer
    Reefer Madness: The Movie Musical
    The Rocky Horror Show - 1973 London Cast
    Spamalot
    Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street - Original Broadway Cast

    Whew. So I like musicals, mmkay?
    But my favourite has to be Les Miserables. It is the perfect musical.

    - Mamma Mia!
    - Moulin Rouge!
    - Phantom of the Opera
    - Rent
    - Rent (Live on Broadway)
    - Repo: The Genetic Opera
    - Rocky Horror Picture Show
    - Sound of Music
    - Sweeny Todd
    - The Producers
    - West Side Story

    ...and i know i have one or two more that i just cant think of at the moment :frowning2:

    As for musicals i dont own but i love just the same...

    Yes, Cheyenne IS amazing. *swoon* Anything he is in instantly turns to gold.

    Enchanted does not count because Ida Menzel didnt even SING and they stopped singing less than half way in it seemed :frowning2:

    And i loved Grease 2 (bought it for 6 dollars haha!) and i agree it was WAY more cheesy and fun. "Were gunna s-c-o-o-o-r-e tonight! Were gunna S-C-O-O-O-O-R-E TONIGHT!" haha its so epic. But the music from Grease is still better IMO

    I'm not a huge buff on musicals, but i loved My Fair Lady and Grease.

    My favourite of all time would have to be Sweeney Todd though.
