This is a wonderful musical. I first saw it as a high school production way back in the 70s. It has some fantastic songs that have become pop standards over the years:

"Feeling Good" (This is the one that seems to be recorded most often)
"Who Can I turn To?" (Was a big hit for Sammy Davis, Jr.)
"A Wonderful Day Like Today"
"Nothing Can Stop Me Now"
"This Dream"

Hope this helps!
