"Applause begets applause in the theatre, as laughter begets laughter and tears beget tears." CLAYTON HAMILTON, "Theory of the Theatre" "I think theater ought to be theatrical ... you know, shuffling the pack in different ways so that it's -- there's always some kind of ambush involved in the experience. You're being ambushed by an unexpected word, or by an elephant falling out of the cupboard, whatever it is." TOM STOPPARD

I really like "Crazy In Love." "Dangerously In Love" is another good one. There's always "Naughty Girl."

In all seriousness, the song that is coming to my mind is "Ice Cream" by Sarah McLachlan.

I melt whenever I hear Frank Sinatra sing "The Way You Look Tonight" or "You'd Be So Easy To Love". At that, I melt at anything Frank Sinatra sings.

I never liked Jill Scott's one big hit song she had out "A Long Walk" was it? So I never got into the rest of her stuff.
