So with another Escapist covering Disney songs I'll take it upon myself to cover the great songs that didn't come from Disney. To kick off:

Just pick one from this, and you're all set.

Also, there's this little piece of awesomeness.

Just one? That covers an awful lot of room. Kind of like asking "What is the best non-Beatles song of all time?" I really don't think I could narrow it down to just one.

You Won't Succeed on Broadway - Spamalot

Phantom of the Opera - Phantom of the Opera

Brand New Day - Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog

Magic Dance - Labyrinth

My Favorite Things - The Sound of Music

I could easily have listed more. Especially since I specifically included only one song from Andrew Lloyd Webber and Rogers and Hammerstein, to avoid having them dominate the list.

What Keeps Mankind Alive


Pirate Jenny


Both from Threepenny Opera by Brecht and Weill. Badass as all get out.

You didn't think you'd get away with a thread like this without a dash of My Little Pony, did you? :p

Officially one of my favourite songs of all time.


Also, winter needs to take this hint and buzz off, I'm already sick of the cold! xD

EDIT: I read the thread title as 'songs that could fit the bill for a musical', not 'songs from musicals', so if only the latter were sought after here I apologize for the misunderstanding. :\

You cannot deny the awesomeness that is... Mr. Feeney as John Adams, going on a tirade and kicking the asses of the incompetent and lazy congress.


I don't know if you can say this is the best musical ever, but it is for damn sure my favorite. This is the musical I grew up with. The humor is fantastic, you can't help but fall in love with the characters. It took me so long to find a DVD of this, but it was worth it to have it in my collection once again.

Normally I'd be all about the ponies but right now I'm really wondering...

Even though we are talking about ANY non Disney song, and even though FiM has plenty of songs.

Smile, Smile, Smile to stick with the FiM theme. It honestly helps me on days that just suck.
