Climax: The opening one-take dance number at the start of the film. (See for yourself.)

Rocketman: "Saturday Night's Alright For Fighting" staged as an all-out musical number

Yesterday: The lead has a song battle with Ed Sheeran (playing himself) and delivers a soulful rendition of "The Long and Winding Road."

MARRIAGE STORY - Being Alive. It's one of the best scenes of the year but this is the best placement for it.

BLINDED BY THE LIGHT - Listening to "The Promised Land" for the first time. One of the most cathartic moments in movies this year. Also - running and dancing to "Born to Run" at the school.

CATS - "Jellicle Songs for Jellicle Cats". That's when the madness took hold. We didn't know it at the time, but we were about to lose our goddamn minds.

Her Smell - Becky Something and child at the piano (been mentioned on the show several times, is so magical)
Us - Family sing-along of I Got Five On It? Maybe not the best, but underrated
Marriage Story - Being Alive

Some obvious choices, but they are the best

Any number of scenes in 'Leto' But I'd go with this one:

Don't know how I overlooked this, but

Under the Silver Lake - Piano man scene...it says everything one needs to about manufactured "art"...
