6. One Day More

From Les Miserables
Nominated by jcgamer

Well, this one's a classic. I find it intriguing that JC nominated the movie version. I mean, this is the movie that really got me into musicals so hey, I don't hate it or anything.
But yeah, this is a great one. Crowd songs can be sung by the ensemble, the cast, or a combination of both. But in an ensemble cast like Les Mis, this epic everyone-come-together-before-the-climax approach really is the best. It not only recaps everyone's stories but also hype you up for what's coming next. Though I have to dock a few points because it's not really my favorite version (though I tolerate Crowe's singing, it's not really the best).

Another favorite full of memories. I was Mme. Thernadier twice and messed up both times. I always love a crowd song that displays different points of view of one moment. I also always feel that 'one day before the climax' is a very romantic and powerful moment. So lots of love for One Day More!

From the Book of Mormon
Nominated by Cybat

The Book of Mormon is chock-full of great crowd songs, and it's obvious from the very first song of this hilarious and somewhat vulgar musical. This is really great because they just set the tone and characters of the musical really well -- that is, the bright-eyed optimism of the Mormon missionaries, their sincere belief in their religion, and Elder Cunningham's a bit oddball personality. It's just really good and fun when the elders' greetings are overlaid on top of each other then they come together and harmonize nicely near the end. I'm a bit sad nobody nominated Turn It Off

Riesling
So the thing is... I work for a religious organization that focuses on producing books, so this song is very weirdly relevant and familiar. No, we don't knock on people's doors the way the Mormons does, but oh how I wish I could. I've always secretly dreamt my office can parody this for a campaign video.
