Thirty Song Challenge III
#2
I'm gonna port over the musicals only one I had going for myself since I didn't really get it started.

I've been on a musicals binge and kept going ~ooh, I'd love to make a thread outta that so I decided to pick my favorite song from 30 different musicals mostly from the 1930-1950ish era (actually 29 because I couldn't choose between two songs from State Fair >.>) and will be making threads out of 'em which will be linked once I've done them. Included are some lyrics from the song that I'll delete once I've made it into a thread.

I also made a  youtube playlist of all the songs listed below
  1. The Trolley Song from Meet Me in St. Louis
    Clang, clang, clang went the trolleyDing, ding, ding went the bellZing, zing, zing went my heart stringsFrom the moment I saw him I fell
  2. Isn't It Kinda Fun from State Fair

  3. It's A Grand Night For Singing from State Fair
    Quote:It's a grand night for singing,The stars are bright above.The earth is a-glowAnd, to add to the show,I think I am falling in love!Falling, falling in love!
  4. Goin' Courtin' from Seven Brides for Seven Brothers
    Don't forget to turn the other cheek,Soon you'll both be larkin',Goin' sparkin'Goin' dancin'At a fancy ball or minuet.Goin' dancin',You'll impress her with your etiquette.
  5. Singing In The Rain from Singing in the Rain
    I'm singing in the rainJust singing in the rainWhat a glorious feelin'I'm happy againI'm laughing at cloudsSo dark up aboveThe sun's in my heartAnd I'm ready for love

    The best things happen while you're dancingThings you would not do at homeCome naturally on the floorFor dancing soon becomes romancingWhen you hold a girl in your armsThat you've never held before
  7. Anything You Can Do from Annie, Get Your Gun
    Anything you can do,I can do betterI can do anythingBetter than you.Anything you can beI can be greater.Sooner or later,I'm greater than you.

    I am sixteen going on seventeenI know that I'm naiveFellows I meet may tell me I'm sweetAnd willingly I believeI am sixteen going on seventeenInnocent as a roseBachelor dandies, drinkers of brandiesWhat do I know of those
  9. Getting to Know You from the King and I
    Getting to know you,Getting to know all about you.Getting to like you,Getting to hope you like me.

  11. If I Were A Rich Man from The Fiddler on the Roof
    If I were a rich man,Ya ha deedle deedle, bubba bubba deedle deedle dum.All day long I'd biddy biddy bum.If I were a wealthy man.I wouldn't have to work hard.Ya ha deedle deedle, bubba bubba deedle deedle dum.If I were a biddy biddy rich,Yidle-diddle-didle-didle man.I'd build a big tall house with rooms by the dozen,Right in the middle of the town.A fine tin roof with real wooden floors below.There would be one long staircase just going up,And one even longer coming down,And one more leading nowhere, just for show.
