20 Musical Songs With That “One Day More” Feeling
For my Les Mis fans out there looking for something new to listen to :) Click the titles to listen, and message me any additions!
Fun Fact: The phenomenon that all these songs have, where two or more distinct melodies overlap to create harmonies and a new melodic structure, is called polyphony!
- One Normal Night from The Addams Family - We’ll Go From There from Anastasia - At the Ballet from A Chorus Line - Getting Married Today from Company - Chant from Hadestown - Non-Stop from Hamilton - Esmeralda from The Hunchback of Notre Dame - 96,000 from In the Heights - Your Work And Nothing More from Jekyll & Hyde - Goodbye Until Tomorrow/I Could Never Rescue You from The Last Five Years - Skid Row (Downtown) from Little Shop of Horrors - Meet the Plastics from Mean Girls - I Still Believe from Miss Saigon - Prima Donna from The Phantom of the Opera - We Can Do It from The Producers - Johanna (Quartet) from Sweeney Todd - Why Did I Listen to That Man? from Urinetown - Quintet from West Side Story - One Short Day from Wicked - Tangled from Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown *explicit*
ALSO:
- A New Argentina from Evita (thanks, @daring-to-fall!)
Quick Note: This one has a polyphonic overlap between the orchestra and the singers, not singers over top of each other, but it really does have that revolutionary “One Day More” feel so I had to include it :)
- No Control from Spongebob Squarepants: The Musical
