[@Omar-wq9dz]

I always liked watching Classic Hollywood musicals. Whenever musicals get made now, they just don’t hold a candle to what came before, even when good

[@ChezRougey]

I think I like the older ones because they are closer to traditional theatre; if not directly adapted from an existing play or musical. A lot more focus on performing *for* the audience rather than completely ignoring the fourth wall.

[@shenran9164]

Lot of movies are like that

[@garymeise673]

I was born in 1965. The year of the Sound of Music. My parents had the soundtrack. Basically all of the first songs I ever learned. Do Re Me being the first.

[@cliffsheets73]

Ahem!!! Les Miserables, Phantom of the Opera, Wicked.

[@user-rq2es2io8y]

Musicals died with the old studio system, alas. The last quality musical made was THE SOUND OF MUSIC.

I love all the old musical songs. The dancing was so good and looked incredibly flawless yet hard at the same time, the singers were all talented, the outfits were classy and beautiful, and it was all just so fun and happy! Which is always good!

[@lavern007]

Ask anyone about Gene and Fred, they worked their butts off in the real world. No CGI, special effects, or a quick cut to animation.

[@rubygracemoseley8144]

@@lavern007 CGI wasn’t even a thing back then and special effects were barely a thing at all. Which is why old movies are so much more impressive to me in some ways because the actors actually danced and sang and had real talent

I grew up watching these musicals with my dad in the 80s. Its amazing that I can still correctly remember 99% of these song lyrics. Including "Trouble" from Music Man.

Judy Garland was just 27 when she made Summer Stock, but she always managed to sound mature beyond her years with every song she’d sing. Oh, and by the way, it’s pronounced BernSTEEN.

I feel like you missed “They call the wind Maria” from “Paint your wagon”. Not necessarily the greatest movie, though I do like it, but the song is hauntingly beautiful.

[@leecarlson9713]

I agree wholeheartedly! Haunting!

[@veredwg]

Agree but also Wand'rin' Star from the same movie

What will I be humming? Pretty much every song from Sound of Music, Mary Poppins, Oliver, and West Side Story. The soundtrack of my youth.

[@georgiahogue8588]

Thank you so much. Fun to go back and remember all these unforgettable songs. Now i want to spend my whole day watching old musicals.

[@LisjeVal]

Also one of my favorites, as well as get me to the church on time.

[@astrotherapist]

"Singin' in the Rain" should be number one! It's the best! Gene Kelly is unforgettable in that number. You blew it!

Wrong! Absolutely totally overrated. The lyrics and melody can not compare with a couple dozen others here.

[@AzucaNegra16]

No she did not blow it. This is her list. You can also create a video with your own list and put who you think should be at the top.

[@songsmith31a]

The song that epitomises the sheer joy of the Hollywood musical. Never bettered. GIven a riotous tribute by the famous British comedy duo Morecambe and Wise - praised by Kelly himself.

[@chelseacanales8763]

Classic Musical are so good and magical. My late grandmother and my mother loved them ❤❤❤❤❤

[@markwiese1165]

I always liked “they called the wind Maria(I can’t spell). From Paint your Wagon.

[@rhusradicans2122]

Your spelling is correct! But in the song, the name Maria is pronounced Ma-rye-ah (a long "i"), which is different from the usual pronunciation Ma-ree-ya (with a long "e") (like the song from West Side Story). But both are spelled the same. I noticed that in the 1995 BBC adaptation of Pride and Prejudice, Maria (Charlotte Lucas' younger sister) is pronounced with a long "I; in the more recent BBC production of Belgravia, Sophia is similarly pronounced with a long "i" rather than a long "e". Maybe it's a British thing?

@@rhusradicans2122 It is also sometimes pronounced MAR-i-a (accent on first syllable).

[@rhusradicans2122]

With all the great songs to pick from you could have chosen 50 or 100 songs and not have gotten everyone's favorites!! My favorites include "They Call the Wind Mariah" from Paint your Wagon, "Old Man River" from Showboat, and "If Ever I should leave you" from Camelot!!

[@Solena55]

Yes to Old Man River

[@jonnarobinson7541]

[@normanwhite6677]

I'd go with "What Do the Simple Folk Do" from Camelot.

[@leonoranicolaysen2784]

My kids grew up on the classics. And they all graduated college with honors. Coincidence? (Spooky music plays)!

[@ZoeBlacktail]

West side story is one of the musicals I got to see live and I loved the songs.

[@MarkRaphaelson]

Obviously everyone's list would be different, but this is by far the best MsMojo video to date. These were almost all excellent choices for the topic.

[@tsukune007]

all the songs from Mary Poppins were great. i enjoyed all the songs from that movie.

[@yoclark2723]

America All the way! They are all fabulous but I love that dance number from Rita and the girls. I did love every song in West Side Story along with the Sound of Music.

[@rubygracemoseley8144]

I listen to The Trolley Song probably weekly. I actually listened to it like two days ago. It makes me so happy and it’s so fun. It’s one of the first songs I ever remember hearing actually. It was on a CD my dad got from his grandfather and I heard for the first time when I was 5. Now almost 15 years later it’s still one of my go-to songs. It makes me so happy and has such charm and fun in it. Judy Garland absolutely crushes the song

[@BillingsJT1]

Nothing from “Yankee Doodle Dandy”?

[@ursexicowgirl]

Lots of Elvis songs like Viva Las Vegas and Jailhouse Rock. Hair Let the Sun shine. RHPS Time Warp. The Muppet Movie, any song. Bye Bye Birdie Put On a Happy Face. Annie Get Your Gun Anything You Can Do. White Christmas.

[@deadandburied7626]

"Singing in the Rain" is my no.1 🎉

[@hotnsct7743]

Don't forget Hair! - lot's of great songs from that movie! Also not as upbeat as some of your list but If Ever I Would Leave you from Camelot is one that stays with you. Great list overall 💥 ❤‍🔥

[@rubygracemoseley8144]

My sister and I watched Hello Dolly for the first time about a year ago and we absolutely loved it! It’s so fun, funny, entertaining and charming! We cracked up over young Michael Crawford because we know him as the Phantom who’s much more…sinister 😂

[@LJB103]

Unfortunately, Danny Lockin who played Barnaby Tucker was brutally murdered. If you haven't seen it, you should also watch the original "The Matchmaker" with Shirley Booth as Dolly and Paul Ford as Horace Vandergelder (plus Tony Perkins, Robert Morse, Shirley MacLaine)

[@fayesouthall6604]

It’s fantastic and still looking amazing

[@BethelAbba]

I was waiting for "I could have danced all night" to show up. A beautiful song, beautifully sung, and danced to by the amazing (and beautiful) Audrey Hepburn. Her acting during the song is spot on and makes me swoon myself, every time I watch it. Great pick, @MsMojo.

[@LymanPhillips]

I hate to burst your bubble (because I love Audrey Hepburn also) but AH's singing in My Fair Lady was dubbed by the wonderful and versatile Marnie Nixon. Who also dubbed Natalie Wood in West Side Story, and so many others.

An American in Paris is probably my favourite classic musical. So many brilliant songs in that film, not just I got rhythm. Gene Kelly was a big hero of mine as a kid.

An American in Paris is a true gem of classic cinema! The songs, the dancing, and the timeless romance all come together to create an unforgettable experience.

Fiddler and My Fair Lady still make me so sad….Julie and Zero should have been in the movies!

[@chrisstevens410]

Yes to both. Topol was a bit young and the small Yiddish theater play was too overblown. It was OK. My Fair Lady was lovely. Audrey and Marnie Nixon did a great job blending voices. There are some recordings of Audrey doing pretty good. Reportedly at the Oscar's she told Julie she would not have taken the part if she knew that would dub her singing. A Julie performance would have been great. Marilyn was good in Gentleman Prefer Blonds, but the role was originated by Carol. Channing. Hello Dolly was long, somewhat over done, but had it's charm. Barbara was fine, but gave the impression of a young Jewish woman dressed for Halloween as a middle aged Irish lady. It was entertaining. Dolly was originated by Carol Channing. It would have been a better movie This recasting is not uncommon. Sometime the aging Broadway stars are too old. Voice dubbing is OK.

@MsMojo, no honorable mentions? Maybe I'm one of the youngest people commenting but I must say that if these are classical move musicals then I guess your list is okay. But were there any movies you left out like "The King and I" Shall We Dance and any songs from Calamity Jane, Doris Day? or what about Carmen Jones. I don't remember any of the songs. I have to look into my archives

I do agree about shall we dance. I could’ve easily replaced several of the selections.

Being born in '60, I have heard a lot of what went on in the '50s and '60s
