Track produced by Broadway Studio Orchestra
*Broadway Studio Orchestra*
We are Broadway Studio Orchestra and we love Musical Theatre, it's as simple as that, and that's why we decided to start making (what we consider to be) the best sounding backing tracks in the world for some of the greatest pieces of Musical Theatre ever written.
Our team is made up of Orchestrators, Sound Designers, Musical Directors and Actors who all work in the Musical Theatre industry around the world and we all got sick of listening to the same old tired, "Casio keyboard" backing tracks that performers have to use - because there is no other alternative. To us, Musical Theatre is some of the most beautiful and complex writing in the world and so it deserves to be performed with a backing track that adds to that performance and doesn't sound like it comes from a Drum Machine in the 1980s (unless it's the Phantom of the Opera Overture, in which case that is exactly what it is).
We are passionate about realism, it's as simple as that and we have spent years perfecting a workflow that gets your tracks sounding as close to a pit band in your Living Room (or wherever else you like to sing) as possible. So have a browse, check out the tracks and we hope you enjoy performing with them as much as we have enjoyed making them.

At words poetic, I'm so pathetic
That I always have found it best
Instead of getting 'em off my chest
To let 'em rest unexpressed
I hate parading my serenading
As I'll probably miss a bar
But if this ditty is not so pretty
At least it'll tell you
How great you are
You're the top!
You're the Coliseum
You're the top!
You're the Louver Museum
You're a melody from a symphony by Strauss
You're a Bendel bonnet
A Shakespeare's sonnet
You're Mickey Mouse
You're the Nile
You're the Tower of Pisa
You're the smile on the Mona Lisa
I'm a worthless check, a total wreck, a flop
But if, baby, I'm the bottom, you're the top
You're the top
You're Mahatma Gandhi
You're the top
You're Napoleon Brandy
You're the purple light
Of a summer night in Spain
You're the National Gallery
You're Garbo's salary
You're cellophane
You're sublime
You're a turkey dinner
You're the time of a Derby winner
I'm a toy balloon that's fated soon to pop
But if, baby, I'm the bottom
You're the top
You're the top
You're an Arrow collar
You're the top
You're a Coolidge dollar
You're the nimble tread
Of the feet of Fred Astaire
You're an O'Neill drama
You're Whistler's mama
You're camembert
You're a rose
You're Inferno's Dante
You're the nose
On the great Durante
I'm just in the way
As the French would say, "de trop"
But if, baby, I'm the bottom
You're the top
You're the top
You're a Waldorf salad
You're the top
You're a Berlin ballad
You're the baby grand of a lady and a gent
You're an Old Dutch master
You're Mrs. Aster
You're Pepsodent
You're romance
You're the steppes of Russia
You're the pants on a Roxy usher
I'm a lazy lout, who's just about to stop
But if, baby, I'm the bottom
You're the top
Have a few edits to the lyrics for this particular version, which seems to be the sung by the folks in th-cam.com/video/S5SRVXhyunM/w-d-xo.html. Almost the same as what @lesbianajones posted, but with some lines cut.
At words poetic, I'm so pathetic
That I always have found it best
Instead of getting 'em off my chest
To let 'em rest, unexpressed
I hate parading my serenading
As I'll probably miss a bar
But if this ditty is not so pretty
At least it'll tell ya how great you are
You're the top
You're the Coliseum
You're the top
You're the Louvre Museum
You're a melody from a symphony by Strauss
You're a Bendel bonnet
A Shakespeare sonnet
You're Mickey Mouse!
You're the Nile
You're the Tower of Pisa
You're the smile
On the Mona Lisa
I'm a worthless check
A total wreck, a flop!
But if, baby, I'm the bottom, you're the top!
[key change]
Your words poetic are not pathetic
On the other hand, babe, you shine
And I can feel after every line
A thrill divine, down my spine [slow]
Now gifted humans like Vincent Youmans
Might think that your song is bad
But I got a notion, I'll second the motion
And this is what I'm going to add
You're the top
You're Mahatma Gandhi]
You're the top
You're Napoleon brandy
You're the purple light of a summer night in Spain
You're the National Gallery
You're Garbo's salary
You're cellophane!
You're sublime
You're a turkey dinner
You're the time
Of the Derby winner
I'm a toy balloon
That's fated soon to pop!
But if, baby, I'm the bottom, you're the top!
[key change]
You're the top
You're an arrow collar
You're the top
You're a Coolidge dollar
You're the nimble tread of the feet of Fred Astaire [musical interlude for dancing]
You're an O'Neill drama
You're Whistler's mama
You're Camembert
You're a rose
You're Inferno's Dante
You're the nose
On the great Durante
I'm just in the way
As the French would say, "de trop"
But if, baby, I'm the bottom you're the top!
[no singing for one verse: dancing]
You're the top
You're a dance in Bali
You're the top
You're a hot tamale
You're an angel, you're simply too-too-too divine
You're a Botticelli
You're Keats
You're Shelley
You're Ovaltine!
You're a boon
You're the dam at Boulder
You're the moon over Mae West's shoulder
I'm the nominee of the G.O.P.
Or GOP!
But if, baby, I'm the bottom
You're the top!
You're the top
You're a Waldorf salad
You're the top
You're a Berlin ballad
You're the boats that glide on the sleepy Zuiderzee
You're an old Dutch master
You're Lady Astor
You're broccoli!
You're romance
You're the steppes of Russia
You're the pants
On a Roxy usher
I'm a broken doll
A folderol
A blop!
But if, baby, I'm the bottom [pause]
You're the top!
