Although there wasn't a whole song in it, one of my very favorite episodes
is when Marge decides that getting involved in community theatre will make
her life better and gets cast as Blanche in a musical production of
Streetcar Named Desire, called simply "Streetcar!" It ends with the whole
cast on stage singing "'Cause a stranger's just a friend you've never met."
Hilarious.

No I wasn't aware of that Pat anyhow then there's the
Canyonera Jingle the pseudo Masons song...forget its name,
"Ckeckin' In" from the musical "Kickin It; A Musical
Journey through the Betty Ford Center" and of course
the "Kamp Krusty' Song. etc etc... all beautifully performed
Even Mo and Krusty and Mr Burns manage to stay in character
in spite of their vocal challenges
