I'm trying to make a playlist on my iPod with the most romantic showtunes. What do you guys think are the showtunes that *must* be on such a list?
"Some people can thrive and bloom living life in a living room, that's perfect for some people of one hundred and five. But I at least gotta try, when I think of all the sights that I gotta see, all the places I gotta play, all the things that I gotta be at"
"Move On"-SUNDAY IN THE PARK WITH GEORGE "Too Many Mornings"-FOLLIES "Say It Somehow"-THE LIGHT IN THE PIAZZA "Shall We Dance?"-KING AND I
"Some people can thrive and bloom living life in a living room, that's perfect for some people of one hundred and five. But I at least gotta try, when I think of all the sights that I gotta see, all the places I gotta play, all the things that I gotta be at"
If I Loved You -- CAROUSEL Till There was You -- MUSIC MAN Some Enchanted Evening -- SOUTH PACIFIC Where or When? -- BABES IN ARMS Falling in Love with Love -- BOYS FROM SYRACUSE Make Believe -- SHOW BOAT
I've always been partial to "Suddenly Seymore" on the Little Shop of Horrors CD (although I prefer the movie version to the off-Broadway version). It's just so sweet and sincere. Love it!
Also "I'll Cover You" from RENT is quite adorable.
the next 10 minutes - Last 5years When the Children are asleep - Carousel With you- pippin I honestly love you- boy from oz with so little to be sure of- anyone can whistle the bend of my arm- dessa rose what would I do- falsettos when did I fall in love- Fiorello! unexected song- song and dance nice- Lucky stiff one hand, one heart- west side story a little bit in love- wonderful town
"I'm an American, Damnit!!! And if it's three things I don't believe in, it's quitting and math."
I know I'll get heat for this but "All I Ask of You" is a romantic song Others: "Something Wonderful"-my FAVORITE Rodgers and Hammerstein song and a romantic one "If I Loved You" from Carousel I think it's called "The Girl Was Me" from "Chess"-it makes me cry "So In Love" from "Kiss Me, Kate"-echo this one "Make Believe" from "Show Boat" "People Will Say We're In Love" (I LOVE the reprise) "In My Life" and "A Heart Full of Love" from Les Miserables "How Could I Ever Know?" from "The Secret Garden" and "A Girl in the Valley" and "Lily's Eyes" are good choices
"A birdcage I plan to hang. I'll get to that someday. A birdcage for a bird who flew away...Around the world."
"Life is a cabaret old chum, only a cabaret old chum, and I love a cabaret!"-RIP Natasha Richardson-I was honored to have witnessed her performance as Sally Bowles.
Easy to Love - Anything Goes Losing My Mind - Follies I've Never Been in Love Before - Guys & Dolls All I Ask of You - The Phantom of the Opera Unexpected Song - Song and Dance Not While I'm Around - Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street Updated On: 1/28/08 at 05:02 PM
"Secret Soul" from JANE EYRE "Teach Me Not to Love You" from TRIUMP OF LOVE "Better Than a Dream" from BELLS ARE RINGING "All the Wasted Time" from PARADE Broadway Blog: Broadway Star Bingo
I think that "Too Much in Love to Care" could be the most romantic (From Sunset Boulevard)! And I was also thinking "You Are My Home," but the song is between a brother & sister (Marguerite).
And what about "Trying Not to Notice," "I Believe My Heart," and (if you have the London Cast Recording) "If Not for Me for Her," all from The Woman in White!
"Gimme Gimme" from "Thouroughly Modern Millie" "As Long As You're Mine" from "Wicked"(had to put it,sorry!) "Next Ten Minutes" from "The Last 5 Years" "Suddenly" from "Xanadu"
I am a bagel on a plateful of onion rolls. If you know what I'm talking about, good. If you don't, you're on your own!
I think my absolutely favorite is Suddenly Seymour from Little Shop of Horrors, but I also love All I Ask of You from Phantom, Say It Somehow and Love to Me from The Light in the Piazza, They Were You from The Fantasticks, and A Heart Full of Love from Les Mis.
