Just curious, what is everyone's favorite "love" song from a musical?
'Your Eyes' --Rent
'As Long as Your're Mine' --Wicked
'Suddenly Seymour" --Little Shop
I have others, but I will stop my list there...

In terms of classic Broadway, "If I Loved You" from 'Carousel'.
In terms of contemporary, "The Last Night of the World" from 'Miss Saigon'.
There are way too many to try and pick from!!
Probably should put mine down too, huh.
Well... all time favorite (seeing as how it was my first show) is "All I Ask of You" from POTO. Currently (and my favorites change often) i guess my fav would be "Unexpected Song" from S&D. Next week it'll be different. oh, well, lol. :)
ill cover you rent
without love hairspray
you and i bare
Ooh yea I think the 'I'll Cover You' Reprise from Rent is beautiful too
"Love Changes Everything" from Aspects of Love also is another one thats good, along with "I'd Give It All For You" from SfaNW (please tell me im not the only one that likes that song now.)
"Unexpeced Song", "Unusual Way," and "Not a Day Goes By"
I know, they're both kind of depressing, but beautiful. Love has many sides to it.
"You're Eyes" and "I'll Cover You"- RENT
"Love Song"- Pippin

I'd Give it All For You- Songs For A New World
thank gawd im not the only one that likes "id give it all for you". Everyone that i know that's heard it so far despises it. oh, well.
If Ever I Would Leave You - CAMELOT
Unexpected Song - SONG & DANCE
and
You Can Be As Loud As The Hell You Want (When You're Making Love)- Avenue Q (just kidding..hahaha)
Unexpected Song and I Don't Know How to Love Him ( I know we've all heard it too many times, but I still love it!)
I also like "Tonight", "Small World", "Love Can't Happen" (from Grand Hotel), and 'In Whatever Time We Have" (from Children of Eden)
"I Turned the Corner," "Jimmy," "Gimme Gimme" - Thoroughly Modern Millie
"It Takes Two" - Hairspray
"Follow Your Heart" - Urinetown
"All I Ask of You" - Phantom of the Opera
"That Face" - The Producers
"Maybe This Time" - Cabaret
"People Will Say We're in Love" - Oklahoma!
"A Little Fall of Rain," "On My Own," "A Heart Full of Love" - Les Miserables
"Suddenly Seymour," "Somewhere That's Green" - Little Shop of Horrors
"As Long as You're Mine" - Wicked
suddenly seymour-lsoh
inside your heart-batboy
Oh, how could i forget Les Mis? OF COURSE! ON My own, a little fall of rain. also from Into the woods i like "it takes two". in my opinion FAR superior than the "shoo-bop" number in Hairspray of the same name.
Mine would have to be:
"Not While I'm Around"
All the Wasted Time-Parade
Unusual Way-Nine
Without Love-Hairspray
Unworthy of Your Love-Assassins
No One Has Ever Loved Me-Passion
All I Ask of You-POTO

"Our Kind of Love"--Beautiful Game
"I'll Cover You/ I'll Cover You (Reprise)"--RENT
"Sue Me"--Guys and Dolls
"The Next Ten Minutes"--L5Y
"I Don't Know How to Love Him"--JCS
"I Know Him So Well"--Chess
"Last Night of the World"-- Miss Saigon
and I have so many more.

I LOVEEE "In Whatever Time We Have" from Children of Eden. "As Long as You're Mine" is also awesome, but I wish there was a bigger climax to the song, but o well! it's still great!
