Solo ~ "On My Own" from Les Miz
Duet ~ Tie between "I'll Cover You" from RENT or "The Song That Goes Like This" from Spamalot. Because, come on, it's funny. Oh, and "Without You". Beautiful.
I remember days
Or at least I try
But as years go by
They're sort of haze
And the bluest ink
Isn't really sky
And at times I think
I would gladly die
For a day of sky

Duet - In His Eyes - Jekyll and Hyde
Also, it's not really a duet per se, but I do love when the captain and maria sing together in the sound of music reprise.
Solo - I'll Cover You (Reprise).... I consider it a love song anyway.

Posted: 1/2/06 at 3:44pmThat one song... oh gosh... I can't think of it now... I haven't heard it in forever... but it's from Secret Garden... with Archie and Lily... at the end... but that's my favorite duet... my favorite solos would be On My Own from Les Mis and (Even though, it's not romantic love, it's still love) I'll Give My Life For You from Miss Saigon.
