Many songs from Broadway musicals have been taken out of the context of the play and recorded or performed as if they were actually written as single, individual works. What Broadway song, and from what Broadway play, has been used the most often as an individual tune?

The problem is a lot of Broadway shows such as "All Shook Up" are from songs that are already in the mainstream public. Espeically shows before "Oklahoma" which is the first intergrated musical, before that they just randomly would take songs and stick then in a show.
But if you were going for a song used most often that was originally intended for just one show I would think "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas" from Meet me in st Louis would be the answer because everyone under the sun seems to have remdade that song.
