+AlejandroInTheTux I can't agree with this. Not because i think that phantom's title song fails to bring the house down, it does that and then some, but rather because I can't say which is better: Phantom of the Opera, or Music of the Night. Both are iconic and deserve this list.

I understand why Memory got #1, even if Cats isn’t the best musical, Memory pretty much is one of the most iconic Broadway songs of all time, probably right up there with One Day More, On My Own, Music Of The Night, Seasons Of Love, etc.

There’s a line or two that emphasize hope. “But still I dream he’ll come to me And we will live the years together” She’s hopeful during those lines, but when all is said and done, it’s really a song about how cruel life can be to someone.

I don't understand why you used the movie version for so many of these songs when you explained in the beginning that the list was focused on songs originally made famous by their theatrical renditions. The theatrical renditions are more impressive in that they weren't cut and edited.

For many of these songs, original performance video doesn't exist, so they use one of the best-known renditions or a recent Tony/award/special filming. It doesn't detract from the amazingness of the songs, at least.

The Wizard of Oz movie did not use any of the music from the 1902 musical of the same name, which is why "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" and other songs from the movie weren't considered. The 2004 movie version of Phantom pretty much is the stage show, only with a few better special effects that can't be done live. The songs are all the same. Probably it was easier for Mojo to get clips of the movies than of recordings of the stage productions for some of them, too. I mean, has anyone ever seen a recorded stage production of Rocky Horror?
