I was never really impressed by the show or the performers.

Woowee, Sebastian Arcelus in Good Vibrations will give you a definite eargasm. I had a hard time keeping my swooning to a low purr. :P

Hm...I always eargasm to Michael Arden's Role of A Lifetime...I just get such chills.

The Shins, too. but they're not musical theater, lol.

Hm...who else? There are so many performers I respect but don't eargasm to. I must think about this. "For Good" I guess. but that's such an emotional song, and I heard it right after a break up. So you can imagine the tears there.

Ooooh, Lea Salonga...anything of hers really--Miss Siagon, Les Miz...

Not really Bway but it is in a jukebox musical -- Bohemian Rhapsody.

Sorry guys but the first time I heard "Defying Gravity" I couldn't believe what I had just heard, same with "Once Upon A Time" from Brooklyn.

SOMETHING WONDERFUL performed by Marilyn Horne. Perfect version & arrangement of a perfect song.

She sings it on the studio album of THE KING AND I which features Julie Andrews as Anna and Ben Kingsley as The King.

Anthony Warlow's "Who Can I Turn To?" from the roar of the greasepaint is practically sex. It starts of slow and deep and reaches an amazing eargasm point at the end with an incredible soaring high note. Add in a completely amazing orchestration and your underwear will be soiled in no time at all.

The Point of no Return reprise in POTO is also eargasmically good.

Hearing Warlow sing gethsemane live and hold the "die" note for ages and ages and ages also got me a little too excited

Recent:

Sutton Foster singing "On My Own". Her build up on "I have never known" is the best f*cking thing I've ever heard.

Patrick Wilson singing "All I Ask Of You".

The cast of a local production of A Grand Night For Singing performing "I Have Dreamed". *faints*

Rex Harrison's "I've Grown Accustomed To Her Face" (from the OBCR). He can just talk -- just say ANYTHING -- and I would melt right there on the spot.

Julia Murney singing "Out Of The Blue". She completly owns all those unexpected als and her voice is so smokey.

I may be asking for the firing squad with this one, but the biggest eargasm I ever had was when I heard Idina sing "Defying Gravity" live. I think I audibly gasped several times and the people in front of me kept glaring at me.

I plan on having several eargasms when I hear Sara Ramirez, Sherie Renee Scott, and the cast of Light in the Piazza sing this July. re: Eargasms

Actr, you reminded me of one. Besides the obvious Idina singing DG live -- after which I tried to stand up at intermission, but my knees literally failed me -- I nearly fainted in the theatre when I saw Little Women at Duke and Jo and the Prof. sang their harmonies in "Small Umbrella In The Rain". I gasped, rather loudly, an enourmous shiver ran up and down my spine, and an uncontrollable, "Gorgeous!" escaped my lips.

Then the old lady next to me looked at me funny.

Heh. Oops.

WOAH.. how did this string ever come out of the ashes? Did someone actually search the word "eargasm" on the search feature?!
