So, my internetgrandmother posted a meme. See, she was looking through her musicals, and seeing if she could come up with a favourite for every letter.

A is for Assassins
B is for either Big River or Blood Brothers (Happy mood, sad mood!)
C is for Chicago (as much as I want it to be Commentary! or Cats)
D is for Dr. Horrible's Sing Along Blog
E is for Evil Dead the Musical (Unless you're my dad, then it's Evita)
F is for Fiddler on the Roof
G is for Guys and Dolls
H is for anyting that is not Heisman, ohmyfuckinggod. Actually, as much as I like HMS Pinnafore, um...H is for High School Musical. *hides!*
I is for Into the Woods
J is for Jekyll and Hyde, which I manage to like more than Jane Eyre. (Though, if Jane Eyre has period dance, I may have to be biased towards it for reasons of I do like Regency dance)
K is for Kiss of the Spider Woman (Morphine Tango. It's like Zydrate Anatomy from the eighties.)
L is for Little Shop, Little Shop of Horrors (Bop-she-bop, little shop of terrors...)
M is for Mary Poppins, which doesn't have a bang¹, but ought to.
N is for... um... I don't have any N musicals. Yes, I am properly ashamed.
O is for Once Upon a Mattress, although Once More With Feeling is pretty damn wonderful too.
P is for The Producers because I don't have Parade, and can't let it be Phantom. (Thanks, movie.)
Q is for Avenue Q, because I don't have any real Q musicals, either.
R is for ..ohgod. R is for Rent, or Repo!, or Rocky and I just can't decide. Probably Repo!, since I've not seen the stage version of Rocky and Rent is not as good as tick, tick...BOOM!.
S is for Sweeney Todd, because Sweeney Todd is officially my favourite musical. (But it's also for Seussical and Shock Treatment and Spamalot, and Scarlet Pimpernel, all of which I love to some extent as well)
T is for every T musical I have is amazing. Prrrrrobably [Title of Show] right now, but I really really like tick, tick...BOOM! a lot, just because it has amazing music. [Title of Show] is more cheery, though, and I do like cheery. (See j7y, not ALL my musicals are depressing. >.>)
U is for Urinetown. Like there could be any doubt! I love that show. <3
V is for my third of four fails. ErikaErikaErika, show me Victor/Victoria sometime so I can put something here?
W is for Wicked because I deeply dislike West Side Story (no, I'm really not sure why either) and I'm just not familiar enough with War of the Worlds. And because, I mean c'mon. Wicked. It's an Oz retelling and significantly better than the book, and has omgcostumeslustwant.
Xanadu is the only musical I know of that begins with X, and I haven't seen or heard of it yet.
Y is for nnnnnprobably You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown, since I haven't heard thrilling things about Young Frankenstein.
Z is for Zombie Prom. It's like Grease, only actually awesome.

And, because I am hella too verbose for my own good, I've decided to see if I can narrow it down to just one track for each letter of the alphabet.

Or rather, I did decide, and then wound up with 25 tracks for A and B. We'll see over the next couple days if I can't get it down to, say, ten tracks to each letter or something. Sigh!

Your turn! Put it in the comments or your own journal, tell me why I am wrong wrong wrong about my choices, and further educate me!

MOOP!

1: Bang = !. It's quicker and faster than saying exclamation point, and also more fun. *spends several minutes digressing about the drink !!! with anyone who'll get it*

I've only just found out about "the last five years" in the past month, and I want a copy SO BAD! It sounds amazing.

I am totally unfamiliar with Elegies, though. *clicks on shinylink*
