Answer: Memory

 'Memory' is the most well known song from Andrew Lloyd Webber's 'Cats'. Sung by Grizabella, she is remembering happier times. 'Cats' is based on T.S. Eliot's 'Old Possums Book Of Practical Cats'.
8. This brand new state is sure gonna fit in great! Which of these one-word song titles informs us of this fact?

Answer: Oklahoma!

 'Oklahoma!' is, of course, from 'Oklahoma!'. It is sung towards the end of the show by Curly and the ensemble, and describes the excitement that everyone feels at the prospect of imminent statehood.
9. According to a song with a single word for its title, I'm very well known and loved by all. What is the title of this song from the musical 'Wicked'?

Answer: Popular

 'Popular' is sung by the character Glinda in the musical 'Wicked', which is based on the story of the witches of Oz. Glinda (later to be considered the good witch) is trying to help Elphaba (later to become known as the Wicked Witch of the West) become more popular. It is sung when they are still at school.
10. This song from 'Showboat' sounds as if it might be a reference to former American President Clinton. What is its title?

Answer: Bill

 'Bill' is a beautiful song from 'Showboat'. Julie sings it in the second act, during the auditions, and she is clearly reminiscing about her failed marriage with Steve. The song was originally written for the 1917 show 'Oh, Lady! Lady!', but was deleted because it was felt to be too sombre for that show. It fits perfectly in 'Showboat'.
