Working Title: The Shipoopi: From YKTTW
Tabby: I want to make some comment about — in live performances, at least — this being the song that allows everyone to settle back into the "Okay, I am watching a musical" feel after returning to the "real world" (or at least its bathrooms) for the intermission, while also being something you can safely miss if the bathroom line was a little long, but my brain is seriously failing to work right now and I can't come up with an intelligent way to phrase it.
Air Of Mystery: I cut out the Spamalot example about ...Bright Side... because it is relevant, despite being a re-use of a song.
Evalana: I took out the Sunset Boulevard example because This Time Next Year is actually the last song of Act One, not the first of Act Two.
