3. Much Ado about Nothing.
Oh wait, that's not a musical. Of course if O said it was, the MSM would take his word for it.

19. Sorry, stole it from Letterman.
It was in a compliation of top ten lists from 1989ish. The seem to remember the catagory being least successful Broadway productions.

12. None. The Obama campaign reminds me of a certain punk band
Edited on Mon Feb-04-08 11:59 AM by Tarc
as strange as it may sound. While watching a bit of The Alternative of VH1 Classic last night (anything to get away from sports talk about my pathetic Patriots), the Sex Pistols "Anarchy in the UK" came on. It was fun to see the 70's era kids in the crowd shots, all black-haired, mascaraed, paper-clips trough noses, ears...it was loud, different, thumbed a big "fuck you" to the bloated establishment of the time...Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, the Stones...who couldn't help but be swept up by that, the newness and the freshness for a change?

But in the end it was all flash and no substance as the Pistols imploded, and the kids moved on to the New Wave and then the new thing after that, and after that, etc...while the others carried on in one form or another.

Just sayin... :)

20. The Ballad of Sweeney Todd
(Prologue)

Swing your razor wide!
Sweeney, hold it to the skies.
Freely flows the blood of those who moralize.
His needs were few, his room was bare.
A lavabo and a fancy chair.
A mug of suds, and a leather strop,
an apron, a towel, a pail, and a mop.
For neatness he deserves a nod,
does Sweeney Todd,
the demon barber of Fleet Street.
Inconspicuous Sweeney was,
quick, and quiet and clean he was.
Back of his smile, under his word,
Sweeney heard music that nobody heard.
Sweeney pondered and Sweeney planned,
like a perfect machine he planned,
Sweeney was smooth, Sweeney was subtle,
Sweeney would blink, and rats would scuttle
Sweeney was smooth, Sweeney was subtle
Sweeney would blink, and rats would scuttle
Sweeney was smooth, Sweeney was subtle,
Sweeney would blink, and rats would scuttle
Sweeney was smooth, Sweeney was subtle,
Sweeney would blink, and rats would scuttle
Sweeney! Sweeney! Sweeney! Sweeney!
Sweeney!

Sweeney Todd
