1. Gotta be White Christmas for me... Great performances and the best selling song of all time.
2. Singing in the Rain... This is the quintessential Hollywood musical. It takes you somewhere.
3. Oklahoma... Fell in love with it as a kid and never lost that love. "Po Jud is dead..." Has some dark stuff hidden in the songs and story when you really listen to what's going on.
4. Wizard of Oz... Another quintessential movie. Who doesn't know the songs?
5. Tie... Willy Wonka (subversive) and Music Man (classic Broadway)

Yes!! It was released quite a while ago, so I doubt it's still in print, but I'm sure you could find a copy.
