Rest in peace, Stephen Sondheim, he really was a lyrical and musical genius. "No One is Alone" is one of my personal favourite tunes of his, I'm delighted that it made the Honourable Mentions.

[elisarosario]

Thank you for giving “Kiss Me” its credit where credit is due. Most people think that song isn’t as memorable as the others in Sweeney Todd, but personally, I think it’s perfect.

[LaLayla]

"No More" from Into the Woods. I was livid when they cut it from the movie.

[SteenAZ]

Fantastic list. Thanks for calling out Every Day a Little Death. That song kills me every time.

Loving you- Passion

Don't Laugh- Hot Spot

More- Dick Tracy

Goodbye for Now- Reds

With So Little to Be Sure Of- Anyone Can Whistle

The beauty is that Sondheim's work is so diverse that there's something for everyone.

[Molson-xghs]

Sondheim’s my forever favorite Broadway composer…entirely clever, often emotional, always brilliant. Enjoyed this list and some great choices to seek out.

[pauljensen]

"Anyone Can Whistle" -one of my favorites (and one of Sondheim's also I believe)

[thomasbradley]

Passion is an underrated show. It’s fairly dark but the music is gorgeous. And Loving You breaks my heart every time and needs more attention. It’s short but says so much

[LioninWinter]

If you can find them, I absolutely recommend tracking down the "Putting it Together" revue or Sondheim's 80th Birthday Concert... both are fantastic collections of his deep and wonderful repertoire performed by stunning singers

[battlegirldeb]

I first heard "Unworthy of Your Love" in the musical revue "Putting it Together". It came out on my birthday in 2001. A year later I finally hear the song in context with "Assassins" and could not believe how weird it felt now I knew the song was about a man crazy enough to shoot someone to get attention.

Merrily We Roll Along is perfection! 💖💖💖

[samuelcollantes]

Of course i agree with these pics. Have a happy saturday morning, Emily. Take care and God bless you, greetings from Colombia to you as well.

No one is alone from Into the woods and that beautiful song it's made me watering eyes of tears and that is a good Broadway song and thank you Stephan Sondheim

[peterd.]

Everyday a little death is my favorite on this list. ❤

[tomlanderos]

Take Me to the World is just beautiful. And desperately underrated

[bookemdano]

Underrated… I’d say “What Can You Lose” from the film Dick Tracy. Beautiful, heartbreaking song. “More” is a fun filled song also!

[musicalsingingboy]

Assassins is Sondheim's most underrated musical, if ur into villains and villain songs, check the musical out

[amybeerbower]

I love this list! But I was really hoping to see “The Miller’s Son” from A Little Night Music. It’s a brilliant song that I think most overlook.

Who said that "No One Is Alone" is under appreciated?
