Lately I have just been OBSESSED with show tunes! I don't know what it is about these songs that make me so happy!

"Guys and Dolls" is one of my favorite musicals! In a way that a lot of musicals I've seen don't, the songs fit right into the storyline and don't take too much away from the dialogue of the characters.

"The Sound of Music" is literally my favorite musical ever. I can remember watching this as a little girl and realizing that Do-Re-Mi hadn't been around forever. It blew my mind that it came from a movie! I know all the words to every song and even had Edelweiss as my ringtone for a while.

Thoroughly Modern Millie is so underrated and (in my opinion) really unique. I played in the pit orchestra for my high school's production of this and I can remember being so curious about how everything played out. I had heard the songs but didn't know the plot! At our first full run through I actually missed a few cues because I was watching the show!

If you haven't seen/read/listened to Wicked before, you are missing out! I heard the soundtrack first when I was in middle school and read the book within a year. I still haven't made it to a live production of this one, but I am planning on going the next time it's in Central Florida! "Wicked" tells the story of the Wizard of Oz from the perspective of the Wicked Witch of the West--Elphaba. It is a lot of fun to listen to and I really enjoyed the book.
Do you enjoy musicals? What is your favorite? Do you listen to soundtracks of shows you haven't seen yet? Let me know in the comments!
