I always tear up at "A Little Fall of Rain", since Eponine deserved so much better, and Marius only realises Eponine's feelings for him before she dies. She tried to help him and Cosette, only to get killed for her trouble.

"Shadowland" is such a soulful and beautifully haunting song that I really wish was in the original _Lion King_ movie. I would've loved Nala to have her own number, and it definitely would've been the next best thing to a "Be Prepared Reprise".

I would have fixed the remake a bit by adding the version of "Be Prepared Reprise" that was supposed to introduce the hyenas to the lionesses, have Beyoncé sing "Shadowland" when Nala leaves to find help, Childish Gambino sing "Endless Night", and swap "Spirit" and the end credit version of "He Lives In You" with each other

VERY TRUE

Giants In The Sky from Into the Woods. "And you think of all of the things you've seen and you wish that you could live in between..." just love that.

“We Both Reached for the Gun” is my favorite song from Chicago! When I first watched the movie, I kept repeating the musical number and rewatching it while singing along.

“Will I?” makes me cry EVERY TIME.

SO glad "Will I" is on this list. Rent is my favorite show, and I would say that's my favorite song because of its simplicity and haunting melody.

How come LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS never makes these lists??? “ Downtown (Skid Row)” and “ Suddenly Seymour “ both are awesome, and Ellen Greene sings the living hell out of Suddenly Seymour! Her unconfident voice blossoming into a confident, belt heavy behemoth of a voice always gives me chills❤️

Maybe Skid Row, but I think this list is highlighting the songs that aren't the main songs of the show (not just underappreciated show). I'd argue that "Suddenly Seymour" and "Somewhere That's Green" are Little Shop's most notable songs. I'd put "Don't Feed the Plants" as not as many know that one, but it's stellar.

Well it’s their practice to leave the musical productions as their own thing and not include any songs from them in the re-adaptations. They don’t do that with any of them.

Good list. I loved seeing Hurricane and Will I on it. I would have added Superboy and the Invisible Girl from Next To Normal. It’s a powerful song and one of the few times Natalie gets to shine.

Great list, but there was one song it was missing: "I Wish I Could Go Back To College" from Avenue Q. It's a beautiful, heartbreaking ballad about regret and fear of the unknown. I'm sure everyone who went to college can relate to it in some way.

"One Short Day" is actually my favorite song from the show. 😁

“wishing you were somehow here again” is one of my favorites. Even before I felt the meaning. It’s amazing.

Wholeheartedly agree on We Both Reached for The Gun! When my class and I watched Chicago for an assignment and while everybody gushed on And All That Jazz, Roxie, Double Act, and even the Hot Honey Rag sequence, I hummed to We Both Reached for the Gun just because it was so clever both as a musical piece and it's narrative purpose! The allegories it had were so cleverly tucked into such a catchy beat. (And it's the only song I can sing that'll sound decent even as someone not good with vocals!)

I'd have to say that the song from "The Phantom of the Opera" that never gets love is "Music of the Night." I don't think one of my favorite musicals would count for this list, but it is a song that needs to be loved more - "Chase the Morning" from "REPO: The Genetic Opera." It's so beautiful and haunting.

Big YES to Shadowland!!! Beautiful song and absolutely perfect!

Hurricane does seem unimpressive when listened to in the cast recording. It's quite short and isn't that catchy or hype like the others, but when i finally saw it with the staging and everything on disney+ i was so blown away. It's one of the numbers with the most impressive staging and lighting imo. I really gained a newfound appreciation for it

Great suggestion!

This was a great list! I agreed with most of the choices! I would have loved seeing songs from more underground musicals...underrated and unpopular musicals. But i did love this!!❤

My school just did The Little Mermaid and If Only quartet wasn't in it, Triton had a small solo to the same melody but the entire quartet wasn't in it. Made me very sad for the girl who played Sebastian because I feel like that is when we finally learn why Sebastian has stuck around for Ariel's entire journey.

I think switch #3 with #1 as “Will I” is probably the best song Jonathan Larson ever wrote and it fits the time period during the AIDS Crisis when getting HIV/AIDS was still a death sentence.

I came onto this video looking for Confrontation, and DID NOT expect to see We Both Reached For The Gun! I just watched Chicago for the first time recently and it immediately became my favorite song. Didn't know it was possible for it to be underappreciated! I mean, the choreo, the synchronization, it's so good!!!

I liked a lot of these songs: Without Love, Will I?, If Only (Quartet), One Short Day, Hurricane. I also think these songs are under appreciated: . Who I’d Be (Shrek) . When the Going Gets Tough (SpongeBob the Musical) . Solla Saloo (Seussical) . Human Again (Beauty and the Beast) .What Do You Know About Love? (Frozen)

Who I'd Be is probably my favorite song from Shrek

What a great list! All solid choices. I'm so glad to find "Do You Love Me?" here! (Also, thanks for pointing out my biggest beef with the film "The Lion King": Nala's underwritten role. It's good to know the stage version gives her more substance. Why is it the stage adaptations of Disney's musicals slap so hard while the live-action cinema remakes of those same films almost invariably suck?) A few other songs I feel deserve more love: "That Would Be Enough" (Hamilton) "We Kiss in a Shadow" (The King and I) "Everything I Know" (In the Heights -- I'm VERY salty that this song was cut from the film version) "There But for You Go I" (Brigadoon) ""Drink With Me" (Les Miserables) "All I've Ever Known" (Hadestown) Yes, I like ballads. Hard to guess, right?

It truly is insane HOW every song on here is INCREDIBLE & just doesn't get the same chatter as the rest! LOVE THIS LISTTTT!!! :33333

Both Reached For The Gun is on this list?? How?? This song gets so much love.

"People Like Us"= from the wild party "rosie"= from bye bye birdie "get out and stay out" and "shine like the sun" from 9 to 5

a little fall of rain is one of, if not my favorite song from les mis, it's so powerful and beautiful

'Sal Tlay Ka Siti' from The Book of Mormon should for SURE be on here. It's such a funny song and yet it's SO FUCKING beautiful I tear up every single time I hear it. Absolutely breathtaking song.

ONE SHORT DAY is my favorite song from WICKED!!

Thank you for including Hurricane, though personally I might have put it as #1. Edit: I also adore Hurricane as it was one of my favorite karaoke songs because my sister said I put so much emotion into it and that made me happy.

Oh I LOVE “We Both Reached For The Gun”! It’s a big highlight of “Chicago” for me. And good call on the mention for “If Only (Quartet)”.

We Both Reached for the Gun from Chicago is so good. It’s upbeat.

"hurricane" from hamilton is one of my faves. "Will I?" from rent makes me tear up a bit. especially watching the off broadway 2019 live event and after the song ends the crowd is completely silent and holding candles 😢

Here’s another suggestion I gave for Top 10 musical related video: Top 10 Songs Written for Musical Film Adaptations.

This is a great list! I was so happy to see We both reached for the gun. Would’ve loved to see Stay with me from into the woods and Green Finch and Linnett Bird from Sweeney Todd.

"Do you love me?" is an excellent pick! Love that song.

Yes! Someone who also finds “Be a Lion” to be one of The Wiz’s underrated songs. Such an emotional musical number and moment with Dorothy comforting the Lion and helping him find courage even if he thinks he lacks some which leads to a great duet at the end. It’s nice seeing the Lion actually finding courage for a moment without him realizing it. I hate that 2 videos of high school productions of the musical that I’ve seen cut it. It is such an ESSENTIAL and POIGNANT number in the musical and further develops the Lion’s character as well as Dorothy’s as a mother figure. If there was a song they wanted to cut to save time, then they should’ve gone with “Who Do You Think Are?”, as that song, unlike the others, doesn’t really further the plot or give character establishment/motivation and could easily be cut and replaced with regular dialogue without effecting the plot and wouldn’t even be missed considering I find that song to be the weakest in an otherwise great song list.

Just a little personal opinion the two biggest problems with the movie version of Chicago is that the didn't have Queen Latifah belt Matron Mama Morton's big number "Go a Little Motto", and bigger still they cast Rene Zellweger.

I love all your choices, but I'd like to see "Meadowlark" and/or "Where is the Warmth" from The Baker's Wife.

This was a good try, but you need to go back further than the 1980's for some truly excellent shows, as well as some memorable, if underappreciated, songs. With that in mind, let me suggest two that should have been included in this listing from more bygone days. The first definitely under appreciated song is 'Carefully Taught' from South Pacific. It was pertinent and pointed in 1949, and it is just as gripping today. The lyric has lost none of its bite or its truth, and it deserves to be on this list. My hands-down nominee for the number one spot is another R&H classic: 'Love, Look Away,' from Flower Drum Song. True, the show has not aged very well, but the 2002 revival, with a rewritten book, did a masterful job with the music. If any song from any show has been overlooked and underappreciated, 'Love Look Away' is at the top of the list. It is poignant and powerful and still gives me chills. When Lea Salonga sang it in the revival, she knocked it out of the park. You simply have to hear it, it is just that good.

Not a bad list But Almost anything from Miss Saigon seems to get ignored by most everyone, especially MsMojo. But The American Dream would be my recommendation for this list.

I know that there are so many good shows on Broadway and different things. But unfortunately I haven't been able to hit any of them. This is mainly due to the fact that I live really far away from broadway kind of stuff

Your take on AC Odyssey is so real but I do think it's a really good game, for people who like that experience. Some things I've developed after playing it. You have to play as Kassandra. Alexios's voice acting sucks and Kassandra's is so well done. She also fits into the world better because she is meant to be the protagonist. Some of the levelling system is trash, spongey enemies are annoying and levelling can be annoying. However, because of the system, level caps aren't the final say, if you poured all your points into assassination, then you can do a level 10 mission at level 7. The third and final until I think of another one, because of AC settings, AC Odyssey isn't for everyone, but if you're a nerd about Ancient Greece the game is for you. Anyway, I loved the video Bizly! Just giving some stuff in case someone's on the fence about playing Odyssey

On the last one,? I didn’t think that “Empty Chairs At Empty Tables” was quite “neglected”?? I always considered it Marius’ signature solo - same as On My Own and I Dreamed a Dream for those characters- which captures survivor’s remorse better than practically any other piece of music. I like most of the choices here (though there are others, of course), but anyone else here disagree that it’s neglected??
