"Gethsemane" is my number one (Ian Gillian is good but Steve Balsamo is incredible) but I love the entire Jesus Christ Superstar. Neal Morse just released a prog rock opera "Jesus Christ The Exorcist" which is inspired by the musical. I love Donna Summer's version of "Don't Cry for Me Argentina" - Madonna's version is too cold.
Whenever I hear Andrew Lloyd Weber's name, it's The Phantom of the Opera that comes to mind. He's a musical genius comparable to my favorite composers Schubert, Bach and Beethoven.
The phantom of the opera is my favorite musical of all time . Think of me is my favorite song from the show , I just love how it sounds like a dreamy music box . My mom told me that I use to go into like a trance like state when ever she would put on the cassette tape ( yes I am gonna be 31) ! As a performer myself I have always dreamed of playing Christine I have dealt with a lot of pain form my past and have always sang since I was a little kid, except I don't have a disfigured Genius madman obsessing over me lol. I also really love Jesus Christ superstar . I don't know how to love him gets me every time I listen to it .
kristen rock-I've never noticed that about Think Of Me before but now that you've mentioned it can I definitely see what you mean about it being like a tune for a music box, same with the song Masquerade. Phantom Of The Opera's my favourite musical as well😃 by the way, except I think my favourite song from the show is Music Of The Night, the whole score for Phantom is really beautiful to listen to.
I’m not as huge of a fan of Phantom as many here. That said, I had to give you thumbs up for beautifully baring your soul in your comment. That’s what art does, it moves us! And many of the greatest works of art ever created were inspired by pain indeed! So I hope that you keep on channeling your pain through music, and share that gift with the world!
I sang Christine's part in our schools concert. I'm a soprano and yrained in opera. I loved doing it but holly hell I swear I heard a pin drop for 4-5 minutes after we finished... Then I kinda jump scared when they started clapping...
@@WrenFaithBridger He means 'The Phantom of the Opera' the title song of the musical with the same name which is at number 5. I also agree that this should be number 1. It's much better than 'Music of the Night' of the same musical.
I remember when that was sung a lot at weddings. One day my mom went to a cousin's wedding and I went to a college friend's wedding the same day, and when we compared notes, we found out "All I Ask of You" was sung at both weddings.
I once saw Michael Crawford in concert. He sang MOTN along with songs from several other ALW shows. It was fantastic; I still remember it fondly even though it was 30 years ago.
My top 8 favourite Andrew Lloyd Webber Songs are: 8. No Matter What (Whistle down the Wind) Boyzone 7. Love Changes Everything (Aspects of Love) Michael Ball 6. Magical Mr. Mistoffelees (Cats) 5. I don't know how to Love Him (Jesus Christ Superstar) 4. Don't cry for me, Argentina (Evita) Madonna 3. Next time you fall in Love (Starlight Express) Greg Ellis & Reva Rice 2. Any Dream Will Do (Joseph & the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat) Jason Donovan 1. The Phantom of the Opera (The Phantom of the Opera) Sarah Brightman & Steve Harley This is the order I'd choose for these favourite Andrew Lloyd Webber Songs of mine.
If I'd done this list it'd be as follows: 10) Any Dream Will Do 9) Superstar 8) Gethsemane 7) Don't Cry For me Argentina 6) Beneath a Moonless Sky - (yes, really) 5) Whistle Down the Wind 4) Past the Point of No Return 3) Phantom of the Opera 2) The Music of the Night 1) Memory Phantom is my Personal Favourite🎭🎭🎭🎭🎭🎭🎭🎭 Note - I HATE Love Never Dies That one song is AMAZING and Memorable
I can’t. The high note in Gethsemane actually makes me shudder. Omfg it gives me chills every time I listen to it. It’s brilliant. Got to say. My favourite version in the 2012 arena version. Coz WOW.!! I can’t stop gushing about this musical. It’s by far my favourite out of every musical I’ve listened to
I agree that Music of the Night should be number one! It’s actually the song that drew me into Andrew Lloyd Webber’s music! My mother turned on CBS and the Tonys were running overtime-and Michael Crawford was singing it-and it absolutely mesmerized me! The next day I went and bought my first, but not last, Andrew Lloyd Webber cd!
@@AlanDSanborn From what I have read, neither will do the show without the other. And now that Anderson is dead, I doubt we'll ever have Neeley again. I've seen them perform the show together and no one can top them.
Glee showed me As If We Never Said Goodbye and I am truly thankful for that. That song is a work of art. It takes you on a journey and I think Chris Colfer really did a great job.
I was so lucky to see so many of these shows on Broadway so many years ago. I didn’t appreciate what I was experiencing. I have tears in my eyes hearing 💜💜💜💜💜
Pie Jesu (Requiem) is my all time favorite Andrew Lloyd Weber song, though not many know of it. It is hard for me to say which is my favorite, I personally don't agree with their list, but they are included in my top 20. Such a brilliant composer. He will be listened to through out history.
I agree that Heaven On Their Minds is the better song but there's no doubt that Superstar had, by far, the greater impact on the public. It's a crime that I Don't Know How to Love Him got left in the runner-ups.
I can’t listen to stick it to the man without feeling emotional it was the first school show I did in high school and now every song from the musical makes me emotional it was one of the best experiences ever!
Jesus Christ Superstar is underrated when it comes to its Songs.... Which has 3 of my Favorite songs-1.) Gethsemane 2.) Jesus Christ Superstar. 3.)I Don’t know how to Love him..... The truth ALL of my FAVORITE Musicals are all from Andrew Lloyd Webber... Its cause I can list a Long list, of his musicals that are my favorite musicals... I had to list my favorite songs from Jesus Christ Superstar separately.. Because they have a special place for me!! Here are my other Favorite’s 1.) All I ask of You 2.) Love Changes Everything 3.) Memory 4.) The Phantom of the Opera 5.) Close every Door 6.) Any Dream will do 7.) Don’t Cry for me Argentina 8.) As if we Never Said Goodbye 9.) Prologue 10.) Wishing you were somehow here again!!!
Chumpy The Bunny I personally think they all are ABSOLUTELY AMAZING composers but Webber and Sondheim totally dominated the 70s & 80s whereas R&H, Cole Porter, Irving Berlin etc were the geniuses of the 40s and 50s❤️ they can’t compare with each either, they are all so different and amazing 🙌🏽❤️❤️
I love ALW because he makes amazing shows. Sondheim is also high up on my faves cause his shows are much darker than Webber. Webber has live in most of them, Sondheim has death and much more adult themes.
Thank you! It is an intense, sad, beautiful vocal piece that expresses Joseph's true emotions through everything he is put through thanks to his brothers
Please do top 10s for the following: Stephen Sondheim, Rodgers and Hammerstein, Lerner and Loewe, the Gershwins, Cole Porter, Pasek and Paul, Stephen Schwartz, Kander and Ebb, Ahrens and Flaherty, Frank Wildhorn, Jerry Herman, Alan Menken
Even though it's from a lesser known musical, I would've added "Love Changes Everything" on here as well. You can't beat Michael Ball's voice on that song! And also "Til I Hear You Sing" from Love Never Dies." Best song in that show. You guys might need to do a second video of ALW songs.
I suspect Love Changes Everything being left off the list may have been due to an American bias. It was much better known in the UK than in the US, as was Aspects of Love, than in the US.
“All I Ask of You” (From “The Phantom of the Opera”) “Unexpected Song” (From “Song & Dance) - IMO these songs should have made the list of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s best songs
I personally think that If Only You Would Listen would also be a good choice. It's a really powerful song with the kids singing what they wish they could say to their parents but also to parents in the audience telling them to listen to their kids.
I love Ramin Karimloo as the Phantom. Yet I think the original cast Michael Crawford sang it more seamlessly. And if you remember near the end of the Phantom 25th Anniversary version when multiple singers were ending the Music of the Night, Ramin explicitly gestured to Michael Crawford as he sang "you alone can make our song take flight." I believe Ramin did that more than just being polite. Anyway, just sharing my thoughts. I certainly understand everybody has her or his own preference, and I am not here to start any argument.
The Music of the Night is my most favorite Andrew Lloyd Webber song of all time! My other two favorites are The Phantom of the Opera and Herod's Song from Jesus Christ Superstar.
Barbra's version of Memory really does tear right through me. It's incredible. Her entire Broadway Album is astounding. Her outtake of I Know Him So Well from Chess is epic. (I know Chess is Ulvaeus/Anderson/Rice so don't come at me to correct me :D )
@jelleebean I love Rum Tum Tugger and all but Mistoffolees seems a teensy tiny bit more iconic when it comes to Cats songs that aren't Memory. The music itself is just so dang catchy as he's dancing.
@@rosenrot234 it's been quite a while since i've actually heard either of them.. just recall adoring both, so i would have been happy to see either of them :) yay for youtube.. off to refresh the 'memory' :D
@@rosenrot234 yeah, i just went and listened to both... i'd completely forgotten how awesome mistoffolees was... and how in awe tugger was... now i'm in that wormhole of various versions of various songs from the production... currently listening to Collabro's version of Memory... :D
Close Every Door (from Joseph) is a haunting melody and I really like All I Ask of You from Phantom-- but it really works better when the singer is REALLY up to it (unlike some of the film versions).
Total so far: Phantom 15 times including NYC and a 200 yo theater in Denmark. And saw Paul Stanley bring down the house in Toronto. JCSS..7 times including performances with Sebastian Bach and Cory Glover. Evita..5 times. Joseph including the Royal Theather in London and a performance with Jon Sedca in the title role. CATS..21 times. Starlight Express 2 times..also in London. Sunset Boulevard..2 times Concerts with Betty Buckley, Sarah Brightman, and Mandy Patinkin..who performed ALW songs. And here's hoping to many many more performances.
1. Music of the Night 2. Memory (not my favorite, but no denying it's iconic) 3. Gethsemane 4. Don't Cry for Me Argentina 5. As If We Never Said Goodbye 6. All I Ask of You 7. Love Changes Everything 8. I don't Know How to Love Him 9. With One Look 10. Close Every Door My Honorable Mentions (or rather, some of my favs) 1. The Heart is Slow to Learn 2. Whistle Down the Wind 3. Tell Me on a Sunday 4. Unexpected Song
I think a great song to be mentioned would be "High Flying, Adored" from Evita. I love Antonio Banderas's voice when he sings that song, also its a great male ballad
I'm happy to see my favorite Phantom of the Opera song is No. 1. Let's agree that Michael Crawford made the best phantom...but if you have another favorite, that's okay too
Does anyone but me remember the SCTV "TV Trailer" for "Indira Gandhi," with Andrea Martin as Gandhi and Joe Flaherty as Slim Whitman doing excerpts from the "movie" such as "Don't cry for me Rawalpindi?" Seriously, ALW came up with some beautiful, almost operatic music for the plays and movies.
I remember having a copy of the movie for Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dream Coat, and I used to watch it non stop, until my older sister took it away.
What are your favorite Andrew Lloyd Webber songs? Let us know below!
"Gethsemane" is my number one (Ian Gillian is good but Steve Balsamo is incredible) but I love the entire Jesus Christ Superstar. Neal Morse just released a prog rock opera "Jesus Christ The Exorcist" which is inspired by the musical. I love Donna Summer's version of "Don't Cry for Me Argentina" - Madonna's version is too cold.
One of my favorite songs is Close every door from Joseph
Music of the night, phantom of the opera
MsMojo I like any dream will do and Jesus Christ superstar songs
Memory is my absolute favorite Andrew Lloyd Webber song especially since CATS is my favorie broadway musical of all time
I think we all know the Phantom of the Opera would be no. 1
I'd say Heaven on their minds instead
Agree
Kincső Keszi thats my fav song he’s ever written
@@atomicwaffles1254 Samee, one of his bests! That whole play is a perfection, my favourite from him. :)
Yes! Phantom of the Opera should be number one!!!
"Memory" is definitely the most iconic. It's been a common cultural phenomenon since I was a little kid in the early 80s.
Whenever I hear Andrew Lloyd Weber's name, it's The Phantom of the Opera that comes to mind. He's a musical genius comparable to my favorite composers Schubert, Bach and Beethoven.
For me, the first thing that comes to my mind when hearing ALW is "Jesus Christ Superstar".
Karen Fahel Same.
Cats was literally my whole childhood, but yeah Phantom is what comes to mind.
@@WrenFaithBridger for me it's both Phantom and cats
For me the first thing that comes to mind is "cats"

kristen rock I always get the goosebumps when I listen to the music from ’Phantom’. It’s my favorite musical aside from ‘West Side Story’
"A dreamy music box"-- that's a good description. I love reading people's descriptions of songs.

I Was SOOOO Happy When I Saw School Of Rock’s “Stick it to the man”
On here. One of the best songs I’ve ever heard.
I feel like I’m the only one here that loves the sequel to Phantom of the Opera, Love Never Dies... AND NOTHING FROM STARLIGHT EXPRESS?!?!
I loved Love Never Dies even though there are a few problems
I love love never dies. I got to see the US tour live.
Sophie Andrew I liked it too-I saw it on PBS and Love Never Dies is a classic. And yeah, I am the Starlight should be here.
ABSOLUTELY ADORE LND despite all its flaws❤️❤️
More operatic than when they were at the opera
The Phantom of the Opera should have been MUCH HIGHER. Like, Number 1.
Did you watch the whole thing? It IS #1.
@@WrenFaithBridger He means 'The Phantom of the Opera' the title song of the musical with the same name which is at number 5. I also agree that this should be number 1. It's much better than 'Music of the Night' of the same musical.
Most iconic riff for sure
Yeah!
Only if Pink Floyd goes like, Number 0.
Where is All I Ask of You????
IKR that’s definitely one of my favorites
sabbarena mayberry and violeta, they didn’t even put I don’t know how to love him on the list just an honorable mention
I remember when that was sung a lot at weddings. One day my mom went to a cousin's wedding and I went to a college friend's wedding the same day, and when we compared notes, we found out "All I Ask of You" was sung at both weddings.
The reprise is my favourite
The list is pretty laughable
When ever I hear Andrew’s name, I always think of the nanny
Neo Mphahlele Same for me!
@@Alphawolf2017 i do too though i heard of him long before.
Omg same. It’s really too bad Mr. Sheffield passed up CATS.
@@krystleurban7345 he was proud at first
I can't believe Maxwell passed on Cats. What was he thinking? If he has Fran then she could have talked him into it. Shame.... 😛
I will never get tired of Jesus Christ Superstar!!!
Thanks for all the love and support. Seriously blown away by the love from all of you.thank you
Michael Crawford singing Music of the Night is EVERYTHING ♥️
My mom got to see him in L.A. in this show!
I once saw Michael Crawford in concert. He sang MOTN along with songs from several other ALW shows. It was fantastic; I still remember it fondly even though it was 30 years ago.
My top 8 favourite Andrew Lloyd Webber Songs are:
8. No Matter What (Whistle down the Wind) Boyzone
7. Love Changes Everything (Aspects of Love) Michael Ball
6. Magical Mr. Mistoffelees (Cats)
5. I don't know how to Love Him (Jesus Christ Superstar)

3. Next time you fall in Love (Starlight Express) Greg Ellis & Reva Rice
2. Any Dream Will Do (Joseph & the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat) Jason Donovan
1. The Phantom of the Opera (The Phantom of the Opera) Sarah Brightman & Steve Harley
This is the order I'd choose for these favourite Andrew Lloyd Webber Songs of mine.
How was Masquerade not included, in my opinion the best piece he ever wrote along with Wishing you where Somehow here again.
Its BORING.
Omg I love masquerade
Yeah! "
Both are really good! Love All I ask of you! Also.
Personally, I always skip Masquerade.
If I'd done this list it'd be as follows:
10) Any Dream Will Do
9) Superstar
8) Gethsemane
7) Don't Cry For me Argentina
6) Beneath a Moonless Sky - (yes, really)
5) Whistle Down the Wind
4) Past the Point of No Return
3) Phantom of the Opera
2) The Music of the Night
1) Memory
Phantom is my Personal Favourite🎭🎭🎭🎭🎭🎭🎭🎭

I had a chorus teacher in high school who introduced me to Andrew Lloyd Webber’s works. And I’ve been a fan ever since then!
"All I Ask of You," should be on the list.
Memory should have been in the top 3 in my opinion, but I'm glad it made the top 5 anyway, and I'm glad Jellicle Songs was an honorable mention
The music of the night is so underrated in this comment section.
Imo it deserves to be in no.1
Music of the Night is my favorite song from POTO so I agree. It deserves the no.1 spot
Music of the night gives me shivers ...every time
Gethsemane sang by Ted Neeley is one of the best things I have ever witnessed in live theatre.
Color me insanely jealous. JCS is very important to me (for personal reasons) and I would love to be able to see Ted perform it live.
I got to meet Ted Neeley AND Carl Anderson backstage! And they are both just brilliant in the movie!
I'm so jelly!
@@AlanDSanborn From what I have read, neither will do the show without the other. And now that Anderson is dead, I doubt we'll ever have Neeley again. I've seen them perform the show together and no one can top them.

Yaaaas!! So happy Superstar made it! He and Tim Rice are a dynamic pairing 😍😍
Wow Betty Buckley singing Memory from Cats. Blew me away....Bravo
I know people love Stephen Sondheim or Steven Schwartz or even R&H, but honestly, none can compare to the beauty of the Lord Lloyd Webber's music.
Chumpy The Bunny I personally think they all are ABSOLUTELY AMAZING composers but Webber and Sondheim totally dominated the 70s & 80s whereas R&H, Cole Porter, Irving Berlin etc were the geniuses of the 40s and 50s❤️ they can’t compare with each either, they are all so different and amazing 🙌🏽❤️❤️
I love ALW because he makes amazing shows. Sondheim is also high up on my faves cause his shows are much darker than Webber. Webber has live in most of them, Sondheim has death and much more adult themes.
Where Did the Rock Go? from School of Rock is definitely underrated.

I love both Phantom Of The Opera and Music Of The Night!!!
the music of the night as webber's most iconic song
nobody:
me: OH YES IT IS
Thank you msmojo for blessing us.
I can smell the sopranos complaining that phantom isn’t #1 from here
This is such a needed list, but how have you not credited any of the singers for their work?
Close Every Door from JATATD is better than Any Dream Will Do IMO
YES!!!
He's written so much music, it's hard to remember all of the songs, but that one is one of his best.
Thank you! It is an intense, sad, beautiful vocal piece that expresses Joseph's true emotions through everything he is put through thanks to his brothers
PERIOD
Agree. When I hear Close Every Door I just gotta belt it out.
Agree
Please do top 10s for the following:
Stephen Sondheim, Rodgers and Hammerstein, Lerner and Loewe, the Gershwins, Cole Porter, Pasek and Paul, Stephen Schwartz, Kander and Ebb, Ahrens and Flaherty, Frank Wildhorn, Jerry Herman, Alan Menken
Taylor LaBau YASS YASS YASSS
Also do Irving Berlin, Jason Robert Brown, and Rodgers and Hart.
I’d love a Sondheim list!
I don't recognize the names Pasek & Paul, but if they did a list like this about them, I might learn something. :)
@@MomLAUPasek & Paul wrote the music for Dear Evan Hansen.
Soooo happy to see some Evita songs on this list!! Personally has most of my favorite songs from Lloyd Webber!! ❤️🙏💖🎶
Even though it's from a lesser known musical, I would've added "Love Changes Everything" on here as well. You can't beat Michael Ball's voice on that song! And also "Til I Hear You Sing" from Love Never Dies." Best song in that show. You guys might need to do a second video of ALW songs.

I suspect Love Changes Everything being left off the list may have been due to an American bias. It was much better known in the UK than in the US, as was Aspects of Love, than in the US.
"Gethsemane" should be number one. No arguments! LOL
That song is so powerful, especially when performed by the right person.
Yes.......just yes
Donny Osmond is my man. He'll always be my favorite Joseph ever
So great to hear Ted Neeley hitting that high A again. Love it!
I never heard about this, but it’s obviously GOOD. No music like this at Hogwarts!
@Bailey Rickman it’s really kind to say that! Luv u 2
Obviously you've never watched Starkid 😂😂
I'm so glad you mentioned Kurt's rendition on As If We Never Said Goodbye. :)
Til I hear you sing from love never dies should’ve been here.
That Guy it's a very underrated show. I loved LND.
Or beneath a moonless sky
And also the title song, Love Never DIes.
Its so iconic I can't 😍😍😍😍😿all of these touch me to the heart
Honestly I wouldn’t be upset if this list was only phantom of the opera
I would place Memory in number one spot without even thinking about it!
Um no, phantom of the opera should definitely be number one no questions asked.
@@Sh6sTh6Smok6 I'd toss up with Phantom of the Opera and Don't Cry for Me Argentina for number one
Bolero.
Very very great fun list I like it a lot and a lot of fun too great job mis mojo one of my very favorite list ever
“All I Ask of You” (From “The Phantom of the Opera”)
“Unexpected Song” (From “Song & Dance)
- IMO these songs should have made the list of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s best songs
Let's be honest though... something like All I Ask of You is more iconic than You Must Love Me...
Lov
exactly... in fact every song from phantom
of the opera is more iconic than all those other songs from the list
@@wenxiu1276 kind of true... accept for Memory and Don't Cry For Me Argentina
Music Of The Night is a fantastic song. Singing that to a beautiful woman is one of my fantasies.
I personally think that If Only You Would Listen would also be a good choice. It's a really powerful song with the kids singing what they wish they could say to their parents but also to parents in the audience telling them to listen to their kids.
Andrew Lloyd Webber is number 3 of my top artists on my Spotify
"numerous singers" may have covered "Music of the Night"
but only one CRUSHED it

Gotta love a person who knows his musicals. :)
"I Know Him So Well" is usually 2 women. Does anyone else sing with her?
Why is there no Close Every Door in this list, not even in the Honorable Mentions, I love that song
It is a great song!
I absolutely LOVE all the songs from The Phantom of the Opera and Joseph and the Technicolor Dreamcoat!! ❤️
Yaaas! Music of the night is no.1 Gerard butler is my favourite phantom.

Andrew Lloyd Webber is my fave composer!
Wow, MsMojo sure loves Jesus Christ Superstar...
Total so far:
Phantom 15 times including NYC and a 200 yo theater in Denmark. And saw Paul Stanley bring down the house in Toronto.
JCSS..7 times including performances with Sebastian Bach and Cory Glover.
Evita..5 times.
Joseph including the Royal Theather in London and a performance with Jon Sedca in the title role.
CATS..21 times.
Starlight Express 2 times..also in London.
Sunset Boulevard..2 times
Concerts with Betty Buckley, Sarah Brightman, and Mandy Patinkin..who performed ALW songs.
And here's hoping to many many more performances.
Haven't even seen it yet, and I bet #1 is Memory
Edit: Oh my gosh... I can't believe it wasnt...
us phans always prevail :)
I was hoping to see “Love Never Dies” from the show on here. That song is the best part of it. Even as an honorable mention.
BigGirl OnATreadmill agreeeeed! But beauty underneath is pretty good imo
Depends on which “beauty underneath” you listen to. 🤣 the second one is waaaay better than the first release.
Til I hear you sing again
Damn! I wasn't expecting JCS to make the list twice💗
I was praying you went with this one. I love the Phantom so much 😍
Wow, Becky, didn't realize you have your own channel! Just discovered and now subscribing to it. Thanks.

My Honorable Mentions (or rather, some of my favs)
1. The Heart is Slow to Learn
2. Whistle Down the Wind
3. Tell Me on a Sunday
4. Unexpected Song
I think a great song to be mentioned would be "High Flying, Adored" from Evita. I love Antonio Banderas's voice when he sings that song, also its a great male ballad
I agree with number 1, but I'd have put Memory at number 2. It's such a timeless song.
Glad Lee mead got a mention for Joseph and the technicolour dreamcoat feel like he is sometimes underrated
I'm happy to see my favorite Phantom of the Opera song is No. 1. Let's agree that Michael Crawford made the best phantom...but if you have another favorite, that's okay too
Does anyone but me remember the SCTV "TV Trailer" for "Indira Gandhi," with Andrea Martin as Gandhi and Joe Flaherty as Slim Whitman doing excerpts from the "movie" such as "Don't cry for me Rawalpindi?" Seriously, ALW came up with some beautiful, almost operatic music for the plays and movies.
phantom of the opera music of the night is my absolute favourite musical song and phantom of the opera is my most favourite musical ever
I liked Any Dream but also Close Every Door from Joseph. From Phantom... All I Ask of You... I also really like Love Changes Everything .
Memory Should be Number 1, Since this video is PreCOVID-19, I'll Hold My Honorable Mention.
He blessed us with Joseph and the Phantom🥰
Pie Jesu is good one as well. My friend and I are singing it for a music contest next week
Can you please do a part 2!? There’s just too many amazing songs!!!
I remember having a copy of the movie for Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dream Coat, and I used to watch it non stop, until my older sister took it away.
