Just generally, I think it's interesting to have heard Sondheim in interviews refer to "A Little Night MUSIC" (most of us naturally emphasize "Night") and "Merrily We ROLL Along" (most of us go for the "Along"). I have a friend who refers to "West SIDE Story" which is also unique.

Odd question, though - what about the Sue Mengers piece, "I'll Eat You Last?" I'm betting most people emphasize "eat" or "last" - but wouldn't "you" really be the target word? But that feels a bit awkward to say.
