In the "slightly weird but amusing" category-
"You Must Meet My Wife" - A Little Night Music
"Barcelona" - Company
"Everyone Hates His Parents" - Falsettoland
"If Momma Was Married" - Gypsy
Both "Agonies" and "Moments in the Woods" from Into the Woods
"The Doctor is In" - You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown
In the "not to everyone's taste" category- "Poems" from Pacific Overtures. And "Color and Light" and "We Do Not Belong Together" from Sunday in the Park With George.
Most of these aren't stunners or terribly romantic (except the Sunday ones), but I like 'em.
Edit: Okay, I have to add in Anthony and Johanna's sublimely ridiculous "Kiss Me" from Sweeney Todd. They're silly people, but they sing so beautifully. (When they're played by Victor Garber and Sarah Rice, at least)

I don't know if you wannt to count this as a duet, but "Another Day" from RENT is really good.
"Could We Start Again" from JCS is also really good.

Posted: 5/22/04 at 2:09pmI personally liked "A Heartful of Love" (Les Miserables), and I second whoever nominated "Light My Candle" (RENT) and "What Is This Feeling?" (Wicked).
