'I'm Still Here' if you could really classify it as a 'diva song'

otherwise, "Only In New York" from TMM, "And I'm Telling You I'm Not Going" from Dreamgirls

I once heard one from Phantom, I think it was called "A Diva's Work is Never Done" and I loved it.
But my all time favorite is probably "What I Did For Love".

WITH ONE LOOK from SUNSET BOULEVARD. Written for a character who's supposed to be this big Diva and the role has been played by great Divas, so...

Umm well, I would say there are about 3 I adore from "Funny Girl" IMO the ultimate diva musical...
"I'm the Greatest Star"

The Ladies Who Lunch - Company

Posted: 2/6/05 at 4:53pm

It is not from Broadway but it is a theatrical song per say...


VIENNA by Linda Eder.

or if it has to be a Musical Show Song then
GOLD from Camille Claudel

Cabaret is the ultimate Diva song for me, maybe it has to do with the fact that it's one the few songs that makes me feel like I have a good voice when I sing it.

Can you believe there's only one mention of WICKED on this entire thread? That's brilliant, and it's not even Defying Gravity! Yes, progress!
