Skimbleshanks and Macavity. But this is subject to change depending on my mood, lol.

Mr. Mistoffelees, even though I'll admit its extremely repetitive, I like horns and they really get featured in this number. Tied with that is Jellicle Ball. Then again, I'm a dance nut so the thrill I get hearing these pieces is undoubtedly related to the fact that they have such awesome choreography (generally).

My favourite song is the Broadway Mungojerrie and Rumpelteazer (even if I don't spell it that way...) because the sax is just so fantastic. In the video I love Grizabella the Glamour Cat, because Aeva May is just a great singer... That said, The Jellicle Ball is excellent because of the brilliant choreography... XD

Grizabella the Glamour Cat (movie version), I have to admit is very good. I thought it was creepy, but I liek to sing along to it. It's really fun. =D

And I like actually most "Mungojerrie and Rumpleteazer"s. The movie version is good, the Broadway version is good, the London version is good, hell I like the Russian version too! (I can't speak Russian buuuut...) Though I didn't like it on this one CD I bought... It's called, like, Hilights from CATS or something... It sounds like they snatched a Moulin Rouge beat and stuck Mungojerrie and Rumpleteazer lyrics on it... blegh.

The jazzy version? I like that one better, and it was the original. The original Broadway version horrifies me, and I can tolerate/like-but-not-as-much-as-other-songs the Vienna version (which is the one in the video and all/most modern productions).

I'm astonished nobody has mentioned the Jellicle Song for Jellicle cats - I guess that one is my favourite. I mean "delphi-oracle cats"? It's just brilliant. =)

I also love Macavity and the chorus line of Gumbie cat. Skimbleshanks is great to, it has a very fun melody which gets stuck in my head when I'm in a very good mood (I don't really like thinking of the time I screamed "Skimlbeshanks the railway cat" across the whole bus though ^^').

Memory, Old Deuteronomy and Gus are great songs, but I can't hear them as often. The same with Mr.Mistoffelees, which is very fun but just isn't as..I don't know, I doesn't sweep me off my feet like the others.

I've always loved The Rum Tum Tugger. It's just so nice to sing along to! X3

Hey what about Nameing of Cats? I think I forgot to put that down

I like the movie MJ and RT. I don't like the Broadway version. And I love Memory. The ELaine paige version, that is. I cannot stand Betty Buckley's voice. Actually... I lvoe all the songs in Polish. ^_^

Tie between Growltiger (gotta love that Bari Sax line in the beginning... just gorgeous!) and Macavity (Trumpet line just... rocks)

...Yes. I'm a band-geek. ~_~

Forgot one... I really like the Italian Aria during Growltiger's Last Stand that Growltiger and Griddlebone sing together.
