The more musicals I watch and hear, the more I realise how addicted I am to 'em.
I was introduced to Les Miserables at around 6 or 7 years old, because my mum had the "Dream Cast" album, with highlights from the 10th anniversary concert in 1995. This album was usually played around bathtime, so sitting in the tub singing along with Fantine as she died was a great tradition in our house. Les Mis is still my favourite musical. Phantom of the Opera, Chicago, The Sound of Music, Grease, Moulin Rouge, Jesus Christ Superstar, The Wizard of Oz, Calamity Jane, Once More With Feeling, and the classic Disney films from the early 60s (The Sword in the Stone, anyone? The Aristocats?) till the early 90s (up til Pocahontas) -- they're all great, but can't quite reach the bar set by Les Mis. It's a sentimental thing, probably.
