Answer: Dr. Dolittle

 From the song "Talk to the Animals." Julie Andrews and Philip Schofield sing this one, and make a great pair!
2. "The minute you walked in the joint."

Answer: Sweet Charity

 From the song "Big Spender." The team of Fosse, Verdon, Simon, Coleman and Fields created the classic Sixties musical and along with it many hits such as "There's Gotta Be Something Better Than This."

Answer: Carousel

 From the song "You'll Never Walk Alone," sung by many other artists, including Elvis Presley.
4. "I could have spread my wings, and done a thousand things I've never done before."

5. "The music, the spotlights, the people, the towns."

7. "Some folks dream of the wonders they'll do, before their time on this planet is through."

Answer: Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat

 From the song "The Prologue", probably one of my favourite lyrics if you listen to the rest. This was an Andrew Lloyd Webber production, and through the wonderful style of music, it shows!
8. "The waves crash on the sand, like a storm that'll break any second."

Answer: Les Miserables

 From "At the End of the Day," Les Miserables had it's 10th Anniversary concert some time ago, the standard of singer was truly amazing. I was originally going to put the French line in as the Encore for the anniversary, until I realised I couldn't spell it!
9. "A boys' band, did you hear me? I said River City gonna have a boys' band."

Answer: The Music Man

 From the song "76 Trombones." This musical's not as well known as some, though it should be. It was written by Meredith Willson.
10. "Silently the senses abandon their defences."

 From the song "Music of the Night," yet another Andrew Lloyd Webber musical and this particular song was sung at his 50th birthday concert.
