ALW has written some amazing songs. My favorites are the phantom of the opera, the overtures from phantom and JCS, last supper, Rum Tum Tugger, Memory, Gethsemane, Judas’ death, the temple, and the money kept rolling in, point of no return, close every door, Joseph Megamix, and all i ask of you (the reprise is one of my favorite scenes in any show). My high school did a thing called “Broadway Night” where we got to sing whatever songs we wanted to from whatever show we wanted. One year I performed “till i hear you sing” and “the phantom of the opera” and the next year I performed “damned for all time” and every performance was so much fun for me and my friends involved (the first two were during covid so we filmed our own videos and sent them to an editor to make the show a livestream. I have the two songs i performed that year on my channel you guys should totally check them out)

The Phantom fo the Opera is the best, hands down !
More User Perspectives
this is totally biased. Regardless of our personal taste, we all know that Phantom should be number one
@Ana-ll1piPhantom of the Opera is what truly got me into music theatre. I can’t ever imagine it being on any list lower than #1
@mariaochenas3634Nope! Don't agree. Phantom of the Opera will always be number one. Then Cats, Evita, Joseph, Sunset Blvd.,
There are various songs from Song and Dance, Starlight Express, and Whistle Down the Wind that always seem to come through my head. Why Geeves and the one about a team?
JCS has God on its side.
Gotta be number one.
are you sure youve heard music of the night or anny song from phantom? PHANTOM OF THE OPERA IS NO. 1! Starlight express and Love never dies are underated but how is phantom number 2?👻🤔
@asaharris3134I think Love changes everything from aspect of Love is also in one of memorable songs from.ALW❤
@funiculifunicula1011I find it funny here how Jesus Christ superstar is after the phantom of the opera, but on the 10 best Broadway musicals list Jesus Christ superstar was nowhere to be seen and Phantom was 2. This was really contradicting.
@nathanzettel5852Kudos to Germany for giving Starlight Express its due respect. Honestly, the scene in The Lion King where Mufasa's spirit talks to Simba seems like it's ripped straight out of the "Starlight Sequence".
@jp3813IT'S A PIG
@legallytwosetHey there Mojo Fans! Andrew Lloyd Webber is an amazing composer! I once did one of his shows(guess which one it is). My favorite musicals by him are Cats, Phantom, Jesus Christ Super Stars, and so much more!
@legallytwosetYou just discredited yourself by not listing Phantom as #1. It’s not the longest running musical of all time for nothing!
@aerofool66Cats will always be my favorite! Phantom and Jesus Superstar are #2 and #3
@legallytwosetI saw Joseph in Melbourne two weeks ago. So catchy
@Star_VA_728The Phantom of the Opera should have been #1, Cats at #3, Joseph at #4, Jesus at #5, and Evita at #2.
@michaelmonthey5974starlight express was a head of its time and its the most futuristic musical in the world
@lordtraxroystarlight express is massive in germany
@lordtraxroyIt should be illegal that Phantom is not number one!!!
@brittanymcmullan3188He doesn't consider Love Never Dies a sequel, but a second story featuring the same characters.
Is that not a sequel?

@tonychaseiamnotgaynotnever2043yhe government is still burning me with satellites and it causes damage everytime 8-13-22
@tonychaseiamnotgaynotnever2043I love Phantom but I really think it is highly overrated……. As far as musical theater composers go, I think Andy is very second rate!!!
@Fortissimo76This list is horseshit.
@ryanmclaughlin512As a Pink Floyd & Andrew Lloyd Webber fan, I’ll never get over how Webber managed to practically steal the main riff from Echoes for the Phantom theme.
@trekgreenwood6743Jesus Christ Superstar and Chess had songs in them that were top 40 hits by Murray Head
@jiml5141Y'all, just because Phantom is the longest running show in Broadway doesn't mean it deserves number 1! IMO, not Jesus Christ Superstar and Evita are vastly superior to it both musically and plot wise. Listen to "Gethsemane" and tell that's not more emotional and powerful then "All I Ask of You."
@elichaitman3294I have to say, these are some impressive musicals, especially phantom of the opera
@carterhurd5263JCS is at 1st spot instead of Phantom? Instant like from me
@gnadov4506Phantom tied with Evita tied with school of rock
@amyclarke41Whistle down the wind is such an underrated musical in my opinion. I believe it should’ve made the top 10
@danielgill2593Cats is my running Nr. one but why phantom of the opera was below jesus christ superstar is hard to figure out for me...
@womenabovetheageof42smashI wish you guys would stop using the awful Phantom movie for examples. It was horrible. Please use the stage show footage. Thank you.
@ChristineovisonI’ve never seen Phantom of the Opera but I already know it deserves a #1 spot
@MonkRoach13Nice to see Jesus Christ superstar getting the credit it deserves
@GeoffVenturesJESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR FIRST PLACE DESERVED
@tiaowo642I agree. Jesus Christ Superstar is number one. My number two would be Evita.
@mattpdx2What is wrong with you? Jesus Christ Superstar is definitely NOT number one.. I'd seriousley not even put it in the top 3. My top 3: 1. Phantom 2. Cats 3. Evita or Sunset Boulevard.
@summermeitschiPhantom is #1
@rebeccahancock7406How does Aspects of Love not even get a mention? I really liked that show. I actually got to see the original London cast.
@13blackcatzzzAlthough I agree with the topw three, I don't agree with order: For my personal likings, Evita is his best work (and one of Rice's top work as well)
@loferxwhy is no one talking about Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat!!! everyone should go watch it right now 🤣💞
@joannekathleenagad8473I don't care what anyone says, JCS absolutely deserved the number 1 spot
@valdiaz4599GUYS THIS IS THE CORRECT LIST: 😊😊
The masterpieces and the best works
1. PHANTOM OF THE OPERA
(it's to big to be compared even with the other masterpieces. It's too much legendary and majestic) 😍😍😍😍😍
2. CATS
3. EVITA
4. JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR
5. LOVE NEVER DIES
6. SUNSET BOULEVARD
The other good works just bit less hits 😂😂😂
7. JOSEPH & THE AMAZING TECNICOLOR DREAMCOTS
8. STARLIGHT EXPRESS
9. SCHOOL OF ROCK
10. JEEVES
Actually also Aspects of Love is great but it was not in this list so I do not include (it would be at n. 7 for me)
I had no idea that Lloyd Webber did School of Rock.
@philippaharris8951I can't get music of the night out of my head either. I love it. I love phantom of the opera.
