off the top of my head...
Real Live Girl from Coleman's Little Me is a waltz version of Stouthearted Men
Sondheim's best post-Sunday song, No One Is Alone, is the ballad version of The
Candy Man from Willy Wonka.
3 Sunny Rooms from Strouse's Rags is the first time Song on the Sand from La
cage aux folles has had a complete lyric
My mother's favorite song, Victor Young's My Foolish Heart, reminds me of
Weill's Here I'll Stay (not to be confused with Weill's Foolish Heart, which
is something different entirely)
I keep hearing Schmidt's Poker Polka from 110 in the Shade in Sondheim's
Pirelli's Miracle Elixer and God That's Good.
A song I've heard on solo violin (Fascination?) sounds like I Could Have Danced
All Night to me.
And don't get me started on Andrew Lloyd Webber, the worst thief of all.
