Sometimes, while I'm driving, I'll spontaneously start singing show tunes
Show tunes are popular songs originally written as part of a score of show.  Very singable.
Usually once I start singing, whoever I'm driving with will start singing too
I like to sing songs from South Pacific.  That was before rock and roll.
Do you like Rock and Roll?
I do, but I think I might prefer show tunes.  Probably because they were part of a story.
what is your favorite?
I really like anything from South Pacific and The King and I.  Rodgers and Hammerstein.
good choices, i really like the king and I too
I saw Yule Brenner in one of his last performances of The King and I; Rodgers and Hammerstein's 5th musical.
