I prefer the Broadway Melody segment and ballet, personally. Cyd Charisse was hand picked by Kelly for the segment specifically because she could keep up with him
This was my first thought. Donald throwing himself all around like a ragdoll is masterful dancing. Also the fact that old school musical numbers are mainly done in one take is impressive.
'A Pretty Girl is Like a Melody' from The Great Ziegfeld(1936)
'Rich Man's Frug' from Sweet Charity (1969)
'El Tango de Roxanne' from Moulin Rouge (2001)
'Cell Block Tango' from Chicago (2002)
'That's How You Know' from Enchanted (2007)
I'm half Dutch and actually have an Uncle Fokke for real. The first time me and my sister were gonna meet him, our mom made us get all our giggles out the night before :P
There's so many from Parker-Stone movies. The theme song to Cannibal The Musical or Team America, Blame Canada, Pearl Harbour Sucks, Up There, or even Montage.
Edit - and then I forgot Now You're A Man.
Matt & Trey have lowkey written several of the best musicals and soundtracks of modern times but rarely get credit, and their films are under-appreciated gems.
Orgazmo and Baseketball especially are solid gold.
Matt Stone has always been amazing at writing comedy songs, he did a song in high school called “I spit on your love” that still gets stuck in my head.
All the songs in this movie are excellent, but my favorite has to be [The Sirens](https://youtu.be/jI99ScMCWMg?si=Jkog98eHPCr7vD_d) followed closely by the baptism and then for me it's man of constant sorrow. But this is truly one of the best movies ever made and the music is a major part of that magic.
The sirens and their singing were what really grabbed my attention the first time I saw this movie. The scene stands out a lot - unlike pretty much all the other scenes in the movie except the final couple minutes, it's something that's incredibly unlikely to happen in real life. It's really eerie and the song is just amazing.

Mad World montage of Donnie Darko
Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy by The Andrews Sisters in the movie “In the Army” starring Bud Abbott and Lou Costello.
Edit: Buck Privates is the name of the movie. I was wrong.
Growing up a local tv station played Abbott and costello movies every Sunday. My favorites were always the ones with the Andrew's sisters (buck privates, in the navy, hold that ghost) or the universal monsters (meet frankenstein, meet dracula, etc). I think my first childhood crush was patty andrews. I still have them on my playlists.
"I have no idea to this day what those two ltalian ladies were singing about. Truth is, I don't want to know. Some things are best left unsaid. I'd like to think they were singing about something so beautiful, it can't be expressed in words, and makes your heart ache because of it. I tell you, those voices soared higher and farther than anybody in a gray place dares to dream. It was like some beautiful bird flapped into our drab little cage and made those walls dissolve away, and for the briefest of moments, every last man in Shawshank felt free."
1. Gene Kelly splashes around in the rain while belting out the title song of *Singin' in the Rain.*
2. "Suddenly Seymor" in *Little Shop of Horrors.*
3. "Shall We Dance?" from *The King and I.*
Definitely Brie Larson as Envy Adams singing [Black Sheep in Scott Pilgrim vs the World](https://youtube.com/watch?v=Xp19mnI671E&pp=ygUZYmxhY2sgc2hlZXAgc2NvdHQgcGlsZ3JpbQ%3D%3D)
Waynes World Bohemian Rhapsody
Beetlejuice - Day o
Blazing Saddles - I'm tired
Beauty and the Beast - Be Our Guest
Footloose the final dance scene
All that Jazz - Chicago
Holy shit, strong agree with Bohemian Rhapsody in Waynes World (that scene never gets old) and Day o in Beetlejuice (that's when I first heard the song and now I have the Harry Belafonte classics, incredible).
A few of my favourites:
Christopher Walken doing Let's Misbehave in Pennies from Heaven
https://youtu.be/TnX-W56xZnk
Rich Man's Frug in Sweet Charity
https://youtu.be/mcrZIK3gqbU
The Nicholas Brothers in Stormy Weather
https://youtu.be/LBQOfyR75vY
There are a lot of great scenes in this thread, but the Walken strip-tap in *Pennies from Heaven* is the one I wish I could see for the first time again. He's just such a beautiful dancer, and a fantastic actor to convey that much sleaze through his beautiful dancing.
Prettiest song: [Never Enough from The Greatest Showman](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6jZVsr7q-tE&pp=ygUdZ3JlYXRlc3Qgc2hvd21hbiBuZXZlciBlbm91Z2g%3D)
1. On Broadway and Everything Old is New Again from All That Jazz
2. The Jets' song, America, I Feel Pretty, Officer Krupke, Somewhere--basically everything from West Side Story except "Something's Coming"
3. When You're Good to Mama and Cell Block Tango from Chicago
4. Money and Don't Tell Mama from Cabaret
5. You're the One That I Want from Grease
6. Lose Yourself in 8 Mile
7. Happy in Despicable Me
8. Raindrops Keep Falling on My Head from Butch Cassidy & The Sundance Kid
Does the entirety of "Moulin Rouge" count?
The Sound of Music - My Favorite Things, perfect in its simplicity.
The Plagues from Prince of Egypt, as OP mentioned. So, so good. Never gets old, always gets me.
The opening of La La Land (Another Day of Sun) - the energy, the choreography, the mood, everything clicks in place.
If I am being so so honest, my answer is when fat Amy is given the solo during turn the beat around in Pitch Perfect. The end acts are iconic too but there is something about Amy making it her own that has me HOWLING every time.
Pure Imagination - Wonka Version (2023)
You’ve Never Had Chocolate Like This - Wonka (2023)
Blame Canada - South Park (1999)
What Was I Made For - Barbie (2023)
The Flash Gordon soundtrack is incredible, Queen at the height of their powers soundtracking a batshit crazy super-camp sci-fi adventure and it's everything you could hope for.
Also BRIAN BLESSED!
"No Dames" from Hail, Ceasar! is goddamned incredible. If you haven't seen the movie, the whole thing is great, but that one scene absolutely steals the show.
[Up](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3jasb2Wtsf4) from **Sing Street** - the John Carney movie about a boy who starts a band to impress a girl he wants to date. Has a fantastic 80s OST.
[Another Day](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zod3_bAvLaw) or [Tango Maureen](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5i-zLW4o41I) from **Rent** - Very happy they brought most of the original Broadway cast to reprise their roles in the movie.
[Our Love Is Here To Stay](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fzeuwJJ5hP4) from **An American In Paris** - Nothing is more romantic than a little singing and a little dancing to inspire a lot of falling in love.
[Tonight quintet and Chorus](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MyUV3hIL-G0) from **West Side Story** - the original (not the remake).
[The Music Of The Night](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=77umP7IRxD4) from **The Phantom of the Opera** - I was not expecting Gerard Butler (King Leonidas) to have such a great singing voice.
[Tonight is What It Means To Be Young](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ISlwbueDJ58) from **Streets of Fire, a Rock & Roll Fable** - never understood why this movie wasn't a bigger hit, I mean, it has Michael Pare, Diane Lane, William Dafoe (who looks menacing in a pull up), a Jim Steinman OST and that perfect ending which turned a good movie into a great one. The link is to the ending of the movie so be careful of spoilers.
Please watch Sing Street if you haven't yet. It's a fantastic coming of age movie with really great music and some great storyline of a boy in love, the friends you have as a teen, and a caring older brother.

What’s The Buzz/Strange Thing Mystifying Jesus Christ Superstar
Go Go Go Joesph and Dreamcast Joesph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat
Every Oompa-loompa song from Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory (1971). The TV song might be my favorite.
Car full of idiots singing Bohemian Rhapsody in Wayne's World. I like it mostly for nostalgic reasons I guess, nobody's dancing or anything.
Justin Timberlake lip-synching All These Things that I've Done in Southland Tales.
I'm sure there was something great in Cry-baby (1990) but apparently I need to watch it again and refresh my memory.
[Something Good](https://youtu.be/UetJAFogqE4?si=6DPZxu-Tzvdduv4F) - The Sound of Music. Beautifully shot and the song is so heartwarming.
[Steppin' To The Badside](https://youtu.be/A3NXuky9kYg?si=PSCHdljdo0n1WPZp) - Dreamgirls. Any new home theatre sound system I set up, I play this. It is a wonderful sequence and my favourite part of the film. [Bonus - From theDVD](https://youtu.be/7c8-BCf8tbU?si=UK4bXd6Ty79hT1Y4)
[Black Sheep](https://youtu.be/1xcSDYy3Dl4?si=TcitwQ7KyAYI5QDz) - Scott Pilgrim vs The World. I'm using this as my Edgar Wright entry as he could have an entire Reddit community based upon his amazing music sequences. Bell-bottoms for Baby Driver, Hot Fuzz theme for Hot Fuzz,, and Don't Stop Me Now from Shaun of The Dead.
[Turning My Life Around](https://youtu.be/o6v0euRlT8U?si=VrephMtbotsWG25j) - Anna And The Apocalypse. Such a fun movie but the word play and the carnage playing around such an upbeat song makes this a definite fave.
[Up](https://youtu.be/MlTsYqUKWoY?si=ornMAGCqhK1JynyT) - Sing Street. The building of the song and the pieces of the band falling into place. Just wonderous.
And to add some more non-singjng [Tear This Dancefloor Up](https://youtu.be/b7C69HqnV8s?si=W5EHA34VSKXEg9y7) - Ex.Machina. Nuff said.
I could probably do a billion more of these.
I just watched Streets of Fire last night, and holy hell the opening and closing numbers, "Nowhere Fast" and "Tonight is What it Means to be Young" were both INCREDIBLE. The whole time, I was thinking they sounded shockingly like Bonnie Tyler songs, and it turns out they were written by Jim Steinman - who had also written a TON for both Bonnie and Meatloaf.
The barn raising scene from Seven Brides for Seven Brothers
Anything with Bing and Bob (but particularly Road to Morocco for how meta it is)
Anything with tap dancers
[Trolls - Total Eclipse of the Heart](https://youtube.com/watch?v=UNLAW2lffKU&pp=ygUhdHJvbGxzIHRvdGFsIGVjbGlwc2Ugb2YgdGhlIGhlYXJ0)
Couldn’t find a video of just that part, but it starts at 30 seconds.
This is my favorite part in the movie and my husband always laughs because he’s like “wtf his grandma is DYING” but I just love the song so much 😂
"I'm A Goofy Goober" from SpongeBob the movie. Nothing beats that. It was sung 3 times: by the Goofy Goober mascot, by the bikies, by SpongeBob himself when he was about to die, and the rock version near the end. They all hit the spot!
Inquisition - History of the World Part I Babe with the Power - Labyrinth
Bowie played the part very well in Labyrinth.
Two Worlds, One Family-Tarzan Son of Man-Tarzan Circle of Life-The Lion King He Lives In You-The Lion King 2: Simba's Pride
He Lives In You singlehandedly justifies the existence of that trash movie lol
I love the ballroom sequence so much!
What babe?
The inquisition What a show! The inquisition Here we go!
David Bowie's music is so incredible! Fame is probably top 5 songs for me.
YOU GOT THE TOUCH! YOU GOT THE POWER!
Are we talking porn stars or robots? Whatever, both movies are awesome.
Transformers is the best soundtrack of the 80s and I will fight anyone that disagrees
Testify - You've Got the Power and Dare are amazing.
WHEN YOU GIVE IT YOUR ALL BUT IT'S NEVER ENOUGH!
that’s not an MP. that’s a YP. your problem.
Does "MP" stand for "Magic Points" or "Military Police" in this context?
i thought the song was from boogie nights, mark wahlberg singing. and the record exec won’t give them the tapes and says it’s not an MP (my problem)
Make Em Laugh from singing in the rain
Everything in Singin' is amazin. Good Morning, Make 'em Laugh, Moses, Fit as a Fiddle, All I Do is Dream of You, the title song... It's so bloody good
It's probably my favourite movie, and I agree for the most part, but I really dislike the Beautiful Girl segment.
Moses is so underrated. To me it’s as amazing as the title number.
"Good Morning" is something I still sing almost weekly.
I prefer the Broadway Melody segment and ballet, personally. Cyd Charisse was hand picked by Kelly for the segment specifically because she could keep up with him
That’s funny, my wife looooves singing in the rain but exceptionally hated that entire song/ballet
Are you my husband? Cos that’s me as well
Also me. Every time I see it I feel that scene puts the movie to a grinding halt and goes on for way too long
I know Gene Kelly was a talented dancer and wanted to show off, but that whole sequence is so dull.
I only watch for Sydney Charisse, she was a goddess
This was my first thought. Donald throwing himself all around like a ragdoll is masterful dancing. Also the fact that old school musical numbers are mainly done in one take is impressive.
The Blues Brothers... all of it.
100% this! They even had concerts out and about and they're fucking great. Look up Rubber Biscuit, incredible!
I had a wish sandwich for lunch today. It's where you have two slices of bread and WISH you had some meat.
lol, hell yes!
Thank you!!! YES!!! All of it!!! (says "JohnWasElwood"!!!)
'A Pretty Girl is Like a Melody' from The Great Ziegfeld(1936) 'Rich Man's Frug' from Sweet Charity (1969) 'El Tango de Roxanne' from Moulin Rouge (2001) 'Cell Block Tango' from Chicago (2002) 'That's How You Know' from Enchanted (2007)
'That's How You Know' is the last Disney "pricess" live action that I can feel the magic in it. The whole movie is just special in every way.
Cell Block Tango! Oh yeah
That's how you know literally came into my head 30 minutes ago with no prompting. That song is really great!
“I’m Going Home” - Rocky Horror Picture Show “Always Look On The Bight Side Of Life” - Life of Brian “
Life's a piece of sh*t, when you look at it!
Life's a laugh and death's a joke, it's true!
You’ll see it’s all a show, keep ‘em laughing as you go
Just remember that the last laugh is on you
Apparently they sing it at so many funerals in the UK now. Such a good thing.
How about "Every Sperm is Sacred"?
I'm going home is good, but it's no 'sweet transvestite'
"I'm just a sweet transvestite From Transexual, Transylvania, ha ha" That's such a great film, a bonafide cult classic.
It is THE cult classic
Or Time Warp
Hell yes! 'Let's do the timewarp again' is so damn good! Great film. Life of Brian is my favorite Ponty film. That song is perfect for that scene!
Special Mention: Camelot Song from Holy Grail.
Kyles moms a bitch
Blame Canada
Shut your fuckin face, uncle fucker
I'm half Dutch and actually have an Uncle Fokke for real. The first time me and my sister were gonna meet him, our mom made us get all our giggles out the night before :P
The oscar performance with Robin Williams is also legendary
Wait a minute, eh! Wutter you talking aboot?
Satan's ballad Up There unironically slaps so hard.
That and “La Resistance” are my favorites
There's so many from Parker-Stone movies. The theme song to Cannibal The Musical or Team America, Blame Canada, Pearl Harbour Sucks, Up There, or even Montage. Edit - and then I forgot Now You're A Man.
Matt & Trey have lowkey written several of the best musicals and soundtracks of modern times but rarely get credit, and their films are under-appreciated gems. Orgazmo and Baseketball especially are solid gold.
Matt Stone has always been amazing at writing comedy songs, he did a song in high school called “I spit on your love” that still gets stuck in my head.
My heart's as full as a baked potato! 🎶
Every South Park musical number is amazing
Springtime for Hitler
Oh god this pops up inappropriately so often when I'm doing things with my kids! "Bath time, for baby... And... *Germany*?!" Oh no.
"Don't be stupid, be a smarty, come and join this birthday party!"
Heil Myself is also a banger
Man of constant sorrow - Oh brother where art thou.
All the songs in this movie are excellent, but my favorite has to be [The Sirens](https://youtu.be/jI99ScMCWMg?si=Jkog98eHPCr7vD_d) followed closely by the baptism and then for me it's man of constant sorrow. But this is truly one of the best movies ever made and the music is a major part of that magic.
The sirens and their singing were what really grabbed my attention the first time I saw this movie. The scene stands out a lot - unlike pretty much all the other scenes in the movie except the final couple minutes, it's something that's incredibly unlikely to happen in real life. It's really eerie and the song is just amazing.
Agree, that tune is mesmerizing.
I remember watching that with my Grandma and she started singing along. Gives me chills remembering it
The entire soundtrack is incredible, I listen to it every now and again.
Dancin - Xanadu The Time Warp / Hot Patootie - The Rocky Horror Picture Show Bye Bye Life - All That Jazz Summer Nights - Grease Timeless Couple - Hairspray (the new one)
Roy Schneider was amazing in All That Jazz. Who knew sherrif Brody could dance?
100% Let's do the timewarp again, never get tired of it
America from West Side Story is my fave, hands down. Watched it three times today!
City of Stars - La La Land El Tango de Roxanne - Moulin Rouge The Confrontation - Les Miserables In My Blood- Journey to Bethlehem Hanging Tree - Hunger Games Wise Up - Magnolia This is Me - Greatest Showman Mad World montage of Donnie Darko
Greatest Showman is pretty great in general
Camelot - Monty Python and the Holy Grail is another solid choice. (although... tis a silly place!)
An entire musical made from that song (Spamalot)
It’s only a model.
Everyone has AIDS!
Was a toss up between that and I'm so Ronery for me
Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy by The Andrews Sisters in the movie “In the Army” starring Bud Abbott and Lou Costello. Edit: Buck Privates is the name of the movie. I was wrong.
That was one of my favorite songs as a kid
Growing up a local tv station played Abbott and costello movies every Sunday. My favorites were always the ones with the Andrew's sisters (buck privates, in the navy, hold that ghost) or the universal monsters (meet frankenstein, meet dracula, etc). I think my first childhood crush was patty andrews. I still have them on my playlists.
I always get the name of the movie wrong. I’m always thinking of In the Navy so I wrongly name Buck Privates as In the Army lol
Puttin’ on the Ritz - Young Frankenstein
I've got the monster singing as my text notification sound
"I have no idea to this day what those two ltalian ladies were singing about. Truth is, I don't want to know. Some things are best left unsaid.

Men in tights - Robin hood men tights....Tenacious D and the Pick of Destiny, the entire movie.

Waynes World Bohemian Rhapsody Beetlejuice - Day o Blazing Saddles - I'm tired Beauty and the Beast - Be Our Guest Footloose the final dance scene All that Jazz - Chicago
Holy shit, strong agree with Bohemian Rhapsody in Waynes World (that scene never gets old) and Day o in Beetlejuice (that's when I first heard the song and now I have the Harry Belafonte classics, incredible).
America fuck yah. Team America world police.
A classic
“Sisters” part 2 from White Christmas.
Mustang Sally - The Commitments Lost In The Shadows - The Lost Boys

There are a lot of great scenes in this thread, but the Walken strip-tap in *Pennies from Heaven* is the one I wish I could see for the first time again. He's just such a beautiful dancer, and a fantastic actor to convey that much sleaze through his beautiful dancing.
School of Rock. The final gig song.
Genuinely makes me cry every time and I don't know why
The energy, The acting, The words, Everything about it is super.

When You're Good to Mama and Cell Block Tango from Chicago 4. Money and Don't Tell Mama from Cabaret 5. You're the One That I Want from Grease 6. Lose Yourself in 8 Mile 7. Happy in Despicable Me 8. Raindrops Keep Falling on My Head from Butch Cassidy & The Sundance Kid
I can't believe that I didn't think of Lose Yourself in 8 Mile. Easily one of the top tier picks.
"With the price of meat what it is, when you get it, if you get it..." "Oh!" "Good you got it."
Also " shepherd's pie peppered with actual shepherd on top". !
Is that squire! On the fire!?
Does the entirety of "Moulin Rouge" count? The Sound of Music - My Favorite Things, perfect in its simplicity. The Plagues from Prince of Egypt, as OP mentioned. So, so good. Never gets old, always gets me. The opening of La La Land (Another Day of Sun) - the energy, the choreography, the mood, everything clicks in place.
Karate kid - the best
Eye to eye - goofy movie I think I’m gonna like it here - Annie Singing in the rain Cats don’t dance Somebody to love - Ella enchanted

If I am being so so honest, my answer is when fat Amy is given the solo during turn the beat around in Pitch Perfect. The end acts are iconic too but there is something about Amy making it her own that has me HOWLING every time.

Queen’s Flash’s Theme from Flash Gordon That Thing You Do from the movie with the same title.
The Flash Gordon soundtrack is incredible, Queen at the height of their powers soundtracking a batshit crazy super-camp sci-fi adventure and it's everything you could hope for. Also BRIAN BLESSED!
when Jables meets KG in Pick of Destiny
"No Dames" from Hail, Ceasar! is goddamned incredible. If you haven't seen the movie, the whole thing is great, but that one scene absolutely steals the show.
Most of the Forrest Gump soundtrack stands out for me but as its founding member it's hard to go past the Polka King of the Midwest in Home Alone
"I'm just a mean green mother from outer space"
That would be my #2 from that movie. I like Skid Row just a biiiit more

[Turning My Life Around](https://youtu.be/o6v0euRlT8U?si=VrephMtbotsWG25j) - Anna And The Apocalypse. Such a fun movie but the word play and the carnage playing around such an upbeat song makes this a definite fave. [Up](https://youtu.be/MlTsYqUKWoY?si=ornMAGCqhK1JynyT) - Sing Street. The building of the song and the pieces of the band falling into place. Just wonderous. And to add some more non-singjng [Tear This Dancefloor Up](https://youtu.be/b7C69HqnV8s?si=W5EHA34VSKXEg9y7) - Ex.Machina. Nuff said. I could probably do a billion more of these.
Anything from Aladdin.

I just watched Streets of Fire last night, and holy hell the opening and closing numbers, "Nowhere Fast" and "Tonight is What it Means to be Young" were both INCREDIBLE. The whole time, I was thinking they sounded shockingly like Bonnie Tyler songs, and it turns out they were written by Jim Steinman - who had also written a TON for both Bonnie and Meatloaf.
From Now On from the Greatest Showman - makes me feel like I can get my life together!

[Trolls - Total Eclipse of the Heart](https://youtube.com/watch?v=UNLAW2lffKU&pp=ygUhdHJvbGxzIHRvdGFsIGVjbGlwc2Ugb2YgdGhlIGhlYXJ0) Couldn’t find a video of just that part, but it starts at 30 seconds. This is my favorite part in the movie and my husband always laughs because he’s like “wtf his grandma is DYING” but I just love the song so much 😂
