I would have to say Wherever Love Takes Me from Gold too. Simply a superb song. Nice to see this is still remembered. Even though it's just the old LP contents I was incredibly pleased when Intrada released their Gold CD.
Certainly agree with the title song of GOLD, but I'd like to add the theme from THE HALLELUJAH TRAIL and "I've Been to St. Louis" from THE SCALPHUNTERS.
What can I say, I love his stuff so much I spent some big bucks having it sung at my birthday party along with LOVE WITH THE PROPER STRANGER, FROM NOON UNTIL THREE, THE SILENCERS, etc.:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=inxeqLMP5yQ
My favorite Bernstein song might be split between "Shakespeare Lied" from "How Now, Dow Jones" (A lively, catchy melody with a witty Carolyn Leigh lyric - and, actually, "They Don't Make 'Em Like That Anymore" is a pretty great song from the same score, too) and "Hello and Goodbye" from "From Noon Till Three" (Which I find an incredibly delightful song - it's warm and slyly funny).
