    “Time Warp” deserved to be in the list (and is, imho is a classic,) but there could only be 20, so there you go. I think that “the sun will come out tomorrow” is more iconic in Annie, but that’s splitting hairs. I agree with the general consensus that “somewhere over the rainbow” and “rainbow connection” should be included. There’s just so many great songs from musicals, it’s hard to narrow them down

    For me, born in '84 in Portugal and first exposed to "The Sound of Music" at a very young age (about 6/7), I can never forget that. It is so foundational to me. Everything about t was so amazing: the wonderful music and lyrics, learning about all the similarities and analogies between myself/my family and the von Trapps, learning about people outside my immediate proximity, learning English and how English could meld into wonderful melodies and English, learning about Austria and Germany and WWII (which I was to process over the course of many, many years) and everything together building an awareness that the World was much more wide than the immediate vicinity of my parents and my family and my town - all this melding with the riveting Music and song....
    The US have truly made a huge contribution to Humanity, no matter how many problems they have (which have been under scrutiny in recent decades but really are the same that Humanity have always had). I'm thankful to all the creators that have made all this possible.
    FOLLOWED CLOSELY BY Mary Poppins! When I was young some of the lyrics were hard to understand but through the years all those melodies and lyrics and situations in life were so remarkable to me. Not to mention, OMG, the animated characters are interacting with the real actors?? OMG THIS IS MAGICAL AND AWESOME!
    EDIT: yep, in retrospect, I got a thing for the lovely Julie Andrews! And I'm, proud I do, too!

    How's about these songs be classic and catchy from movie musicals:
    1. Movin' Right Along- The Muppet Movie (1979)
    2. The Happiness Hotel- The Great Muppet Caper (1981)
    3. I'm Gonna Always Love You- The Muppets Take Manhattan (1984)
    4. Hosanna- Jesus Christ Superstar (1973)
    5. Let's Hear it for the Boy- Footloose (1984)
    6. Hot Patootie (Bless My Soul)- The Rocky Horror Picture Show (1975)

    Walt Disney’s favorite was “Feed the Birds (Tuppence a Bag).” So much so, that he had it played at every meeting. My most catchy song is “Que Sera, Sera” by Doris Day from The Man Who Knew Too Much, not necessarily a musical, but about the most catchy song by a songstress not to even appear on this list. Judy Garland’s “Trolley Song,” from the great “Meet Me In Saint Louis” ought to be number one on this list, at least according to my daughters. Then she tops it off with one of the most memorable Christmas songs of all time, “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas” that will make the coldest of souls melt to tears.

    Over the Rainbow (cut from Wizard of Oz, then reinserted) is widely named the greatest movie-musical song of all time.

    As much as I love "I could of danced all night", the most catchy song in My Fair Lady is "I'm getting married in the moring". Also where is "You got trouble" or "Shapoopi" from The Music Man.

      @@petereggers7603 For me, the My Fair Lady soundtrack is one of those soundtracks where every song is an absolute winner. The same goes for South Pacific, and probably a few others as well that I can't think of off the top of my head.

    There are so many catchy songs from classic movie musicals that it's impossible to narrow it down to just 20! I'm thrilled you picked a song from Easter Parade (one of my favorites), but I would have picked either the title song, Easter Parade, or We're a Couple of Swells because those are the ones that are my biggest ear worms from that movie and I can't help singing them at various random times during the year. Also, I would've picked: 1) Tomorrow from Annie (instead of Hard Knock Life) and 2) Over the Rainbow from Wizard of Oz (instead of We're Off to See the Wizard). I think White Christmas should've been in there somewhere too, as well as Secret Love (from Calamity Jane), Time Warp (Rock Horror Picture Show), Little Shop of Horrors, and Cabaret. You really need to do a follow up to this with at least 20 more!
