Unsual Way from Nine All The wasted time from Parade Back to Before from Ragtime Love Makes the World Go'Round from Carnival Loving You from Passion Not Alone from Into the Woods
Call me strange but I find most of the songs from Wicked extremely moving. I know the show itself isnt meant to be the most tear jerking show in the world etc but I really love the lyrics and the meanings in the songs like For Good and Defying Gravity. I also love the songs from RENT, and this one play called The Flower Drum Song which has an amazing song called one hundred million miracles in it. REALLY touching play though unfortunately its relatively unknown.
I wanted to get something that an "ex"-junkie like him would really appreciate and cherish....it's a brick of heroin shaped like a heart.

One Hand, One Heart- WSS Somewhere- WSS Music of the Night- POTO All I Ask of You- POTO Home- Beauty and the Beast If I Can't Love Her- Beauty and the Beast On My Own- Les Miz I Dreamed a Dream- Les Miz Stars- Les Miz Climb Every Mountain- Sound of Music Let's Go Fly A Kite- Mary Poppins (the movie) [Dunno why, but for some reason this song has made me cry...] Look to the Rainbow- Finian's Rainbow Elaborate Lives- Aida Written in the Stars- Aida Enchantment Passing Through (esp. the reprise)- Aida Not While I'm Around- Sweeny Todd Circle of Life (esp. at the end of the show)- Lion King He Lives In You- LK Shadowland- LK Endless Night- LK One Song Glory- Rent Seasons of Love- Rent Without You- Rent I'll Cover You (esp. the rep.)- Rent Finale- Rent Don't Cry for me Argentina- Evita
And, please don't bash, but I find a lot of the music from Wicked to be very good. I've cried during For Good and the Finale, and I can relate a lot to Defying Gravity (and even The Wizard and I, sort of)
And I'm sure I can think of a bunch of other songs, but this post is already long enough.
All I Ask of You - Phantom I Know Him So Well - Chess I'll Know - Guys and Dolls Castle on a Cloud - Les Mis (it depends on who sings it- in a B'way revue I was in this summer, the kid who got assigned this song just stood there and screeched it out. But if someone has a developed voice, by all means, it's lovely.) Mister Cellophane - Chicago Without Love - Hairspray I Know Where I've Been - Hairspray For Good - Wicked (Yeah.)
Thankfully, nobody's mentioned anything from Brooklyn.
if i cant love her- beauty and the beast a little fall of rain- les mis suddenly seymour- little shop of horrors the wizard and i- wicked what you own- rent without love- hairspray
i dont really know what the definition of "beautiful" is but in my opinion all of those songs are beautiful, and amazing. "what you own" i think is one of my top favorite broadway songs. it might even be my #1.
My "most beautiful" song isn't even really a song. It's that snatch of melody that is repeated throughout the score of THE MOST HAPPY FELLA, where Rosabella sings "I don't know nuthin' about him..."
It's so ravishingly beautiful, and even more so because it's not an entire song, just a segment of one that comes up in the score whenever the characters are singing how they really feel.
