Or instead of programming anything from the admittedly wonderful (but a too-obvious pick for 1943) Oklahoma! score, they might have done something instead from One Touch of Venus, Early To Bed, or Something For the Boys. There are some great numbers in all of those, and they're less familiar.

I think the songs they picked from 1957, 1959, and 1960 are also all "too obvious," in the same sense. And for 1958, if it had to be Flower Drum Song (which it doesn't), I'd have picked "You Are Beautiful" or "I Am Going To Like It Here" over "Love, Look Away."
