march of the falsettos came out in 1981 and falsettoland (the second part) came out in 1990. i have both albums on cd and they are genuinely some of the best lyric writing and most interesting music composition i’ve ever heard. it’s hilarious and depressing and i cry every time i listen to it all the way through. the new 2016 version is also amazing (and has christian borle my king in it)
falsettos will forever be my favorite musical not only because the characters are pretty relatable, but mainly because the music absolutely slaps man. none of it is ever skipped when I am listening
1. Rocky Horror Picture Show is one my favorite movies of all time so obvi it‘s first on the list.
2. Rent (the movie and any live stage performance)
3. Falsettos
