What songs from musicals do you live your life by?

Surely Funke asked:
In the broadest sense — if any song has any impact on how you see the world, what is it? Or perhaps multiple songs?

“Epiphany” from Sweeny Todd, specifically, although really anything from that show works for me. Of course I’m talking about the Angela Landsbury production not the upcoming Depp one.
Also, anything from Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, a holdover from my childhood.

Angry Inch from Hedwig and the angry inch. Live like you’ve got one.
Either that or Springtime for ****** from The Producers.

“Good Morning, Baltimore,” apparently, because I can’t get it out of my head, but I keep thinking the line “every day’s like an open door” should be “every day’s like an open sore.” Also, Joanna from Sweeney Todd, not sure why except that it was the first show I ever saw on Broadway, and I saw the original cast, and here comes Johnny Depp and the movie version (almost 30 years later).

It ***** to be Me, from Avenue Q. Best song ever and it totally mirrors my life (loosely).

I’d have to say either “For Good” from Wicked or “Hold Me Bat Boy” from Bat Boy: The Musical. Both songs make you wonder if you’re really living the best life you can. One makes you begin to appreciate your friends, and the other makes you look more closely at strangers and people who are different from you. Those 2 would have to be the most touching for me.
