 Re: Post your favorite songs from each Sondheim show!
The last 5 months have been a crash course on Sondheim, and it's been a blast. (I'd only seen Into the Woods and the Sweeney film before that.)
West Side Story: America, Something's Coming, Jet Song
Forum: Everybody Ought to Have a Maid, Comedy Tonight, Lovely
Company: Another Hundred People, Getting Married Today, Sorry-Grateful
Follies: You're Gonna Love Tomorrow, Could I Leave You, Losing My Mind
Pacific Overtures: Someone In a Tree, A Bowler Hat, Poems
Sweeney Todd: A Little Priest, By The Sea, The Ballad of Sweeney Todd
Sunday in the Park: Color and Light, Children and Art, Move On
Into the Woods: No More, It Takes Two, I Know Things Now
Assassins: Ballad of Guiteau, Ballad of Czolgosz, How I Saved Roosevelt
Passion: not a big fan. Can I say "the orchestrations"?
I know there's a few essential shows I still have to hear!

 Re: Post your favorite songs from each Sondheim show!
Sweeney Todd: Epiphany, Ballad of Sweeney Todd, My Friends Follies: One More Kiss, Beautiful Girls (one of my favorite openings ever) ....that overture is amazing too. Sunday: Color and Light Into the Woods: "Greens! Greens! And nothing but greens!" That's as far as I've gotten with Sondheim.  Only one I've seen live is Follies, in concert. It was thrilling.

 Re: Post your favorite songs from each Sondheim show!
Funny Thing: "Free"
Anyone Can Whistle: "Me and My Town"
Evening Primrose: "I Remember"
Company: "Another Hundred People" (all-time favorite song, incidentally)
Follies: "The Right Girl"
Night Music: "The Sun Sits Low"
Frogs: "The Frogs"
Pacific Overtures: "Someone in a Tree"
Sweeney Todd: "Johanna (Quartet)"
Merrily: "Old Friends"
Sunday: "Finishing the Hat"
Into the Woods: "No More"
Assassins: "Ballad of Czolgosz"
Probably a pretty basic list- I can't imagine my picks for Pacific through Sunday being that out of the ordinary.
