"In theater, the process of it is the experience. Everyone goes through the process, and everyone has the experience together. It doesn't last - only in people's memories and in their hearts. That's the beauty and sadness of it. But that's life - beauty and the sadness. And that is why theater is life." - Sherie Rene Scott

I was listening to Amour when I got in a huge car accident that caused me not to be able to go to Light in the Piazza at the Ahmanson that night.
I still listen to Amour when I drive.
It's tinkly.

Although I am not yet a licensed driver, when my sister and I would go somewhere, we would always blast some showtunes in her car. I find that anything that has some songs that you can belt to are fun. In that spirit, I find that shows like Wicked, RENT, Hairspray, Beauty and the Beast, A Chorus Line, Dreamgirls, Mamma Mia!, The Lion King, even Phantom of the Opera can be great driving tunes. But then again, I listen to showtunes whenever possible, so anything will really work for me.

The london revival recording of Evita, what with it's awesome latin beats and rhythms, is awesome driving music. Who wouldn't perk up at hearing Roger's "Buenos Aires" ?
I say Jersey Boys and Dirty Rotten Scoundrels...I blast Great Big Stuff
It was 6 hours, I don't even like to have sex and eat bacon for 6 hours.

Avenue Q is, IMO, the best road-trip music. Those that know it sing along, and those that don't get a good laugh.
"If this is going to be a Christian nation that doesn't help the poor, either we have to pretend that Jesus was just as selfish as we are, or we've got to acknowledge that He commanded us to love the poor and serve the needy without condition and then admit that we just don't want to do it." -Stephen Colbert

hear my song; it was made for the time when you don't know where to go, listen to the song that i sing, you'll be fine..
Spring Awakening is nice and mellow, especially when stuck in traffic.

Today I listened to "The Witches of Eastwick" on my way to an audition - PERFECT!
On the way back I was satisfied with how it went, and put on "Marie Christine" - they were the absolute perfect combination.
I always say lots and lots of LaChiusa, though

Spring Awakening is so much fun to listen to while driving.
Especially blasting "Totally F*cked" while you're driving down the highway.
For me, Chicago is also really fun to listen to, as well as Evita (London Revival) and A Chorus Line.

THE best song to listen to while driving if you are in a rush is the overture to Dirty Rotten Scoundrels. Other than that, mostly what other people have said: Jersey Boys and Spring Awakening.
currently on my driving playlist:
Chicago
Copacabana
Hairspray
Rent
Spring Awakening
Swing!
Tick, Tick...BOOM!

The CD in my car at the moment has the following on it:
Various Adam Pascal solo songs
Aida CR
Cabaret CR
Tarzan CR
Chess Benefit Concert
The Producers movie soundtrack
Something else that I can't remember at the moment.
I really need to burn a new CD and spice it up a bit.
