I've reached the point in my life where I rarely listen to popular mainstream music. I almost exclusively listen to songs from musicals. I like the storytelling aspect attached to songs that progress a plot. I've come to find there is a showtune for every mood or occasion. Here's a list I've complied so you always have a song ready for every moment in life.

1. When you're about to go to a lit party

"Big Fun" - Heathers the Musical

"Halloween" - Be More Chill

2. When you just got back from the world's best first date and you think you might have caught the feels

"Helpless" - Hamilton

"I Love the Way" - Something Rotten

3. When you like someone but they don't like you back

"I'm Not That Girl" - Wicked

"On My Own" - Les Misearbles

4. Or you're not sure if they like you

"Mix Tape" - Avenue Q

5. Or you don't even know if you want a relationship

"Being Alive" - Company

6. When you're thinking about how much you appreciate your BFF

"Two-Player Game" - Be More Chill

7. Or when you and your bestie are beefin'

"I'd Rather Be Me" - Mean Girls

8. When you want to feel like a boss ass bitch

"Dead Girl Walking" - Heathers the Musical

9. When you feel like sobbing

"Falling Slowly" - Once

"Finale" - Phantom of The Opera

10. Right before you loose your virginity

"Baptize Me" -The Book of Mormon

11. And right after

"Changing My Major" - Fun Home

(Mostly kidding about those last two, but they are great songs.)

There's never a wrong time for musical theatre. There truly is a song for every occasions, far too many too list here, but hopefully this is a good start.
