Now When The Rain Falls - cut from Scarlet Pimpernel (it's about love ending and being miserable and depressed rather than being *in* love...and I rather prefer it that way. :-P)

I'm also quite fond of "I Am Telling You I'm Not Going", which, although the the musical aesthetic is not at all what we think of when we think "love song", is about a crazy, obsessive, co-dependent, all-consuming love that I think makes it as much of if not more of a love song than any of the sappy sweet things.

I think I might be a twisted person. Just maybe.


Suzanne: I never use catalogs. I'd rather go in the store and see all the salespeople groveling and sucking up to you. Julia: Pardon me, I never knew they were so solicitous at the K-Mart.

LOVE SONG
~Pippin

I GUESS I'LL MISS THE MAN

I think PIPPIN was one of Stephen Schwartz's best scores.

BUT NOT FOR ME
~Crazy For You

I'll Cover You (reprise)/RENT - can make me cry whenever I listen to it
Someone Like You/JEKYLL & HYDE - a little sappy, but if done right can be really powerful
All I Ask Of You/PHANTOM OF THE OPERA - beautiful. 'nuf said.

And I really love Somewhere/WEST SIDE STORY - so simple, yet good

'Johanna' from Sweeney Todd. I especially love Anthony Warlow's version.

This may not fit the original criteria, but I also like:
'Being Alive' (Company)
'Color & Light' (Sunday in the Park) -- the part where George was looking at Dot while she's staring in the mirror...
'I won't send roses' (Mack & Mabel)
'It Takes Two' (Into the Woods)
'Sorry Grateful' (Company)

You Walk With Me (The Full Monty)
Marry Me a Little (Marry Me a Little)
Goodbye Until Tomorrow (The Last 5 Years)
But Not for Me (Crazy for You)
The Prayer (The Scarlet Pimpernel)
Back to Before (Ragtime)- even though its not really about love so much as its about love dying
I'd Give it All For You (Songs for a New World)

But my all time favorite would have to be "I Could Be in Love With Someone Like You" which was cut from The Last 5 Years and replaced by "Shiksa Goddess"


And hang on, when did you win the discus?
