Yeah, Shira- definitely check out her "If I Loved You". Sublime.
My choices:
"Send In The Clowns" - Streisand
"Something's Coming" - Streisand (I will NEVER forget sitting at Staples center, watching "Timeless" and she she came out singing this song...One of the best moments of my life. But I digress.
)
"Maybe This Time" - Karen Mason
"So In Love" - Lara Fabian
I'm sure there's more so I might add some later on.

Michael Ball -- This is the Moment, Losing My Mind, People, Gethsemane -- this last has given me chills when I've seen him perform it.
Edited to add Anthem from Chess also sung by Michael.

BERNADETTE'S "BEING ALIVE"?!
Let's not forget Patti LuPone's untouchable rendition of that song.

Posted: 9/5/04 at 11:21amYay BlueWizard! You agree with me about Lea! She has the best "On My Own". I also like Patti Lupone's "Being Alive." I agree with "Gesthemane" by Michael Ball and I will add "Man of LaMancha" as done by Linda Eder.

Posted: 9/5/04 at 2:18pmI'll have to agree Michael Ball's Losing my Mind and Gesthemane are incredible. Betty Buckley's Unexpected Song and Rose's Turn are awesome as well! Judi Dench's Send in the Clowns is great(even though I know she did ALNM in London)

Actually, Lauren Kennedy was the original in The Last Five Years, she did the run in Chicago before it transfered to Off Broadway.
I'd like to say Linda Eder's Man of LaMancha and John Barrowman's Marry Me a Little, as well as Ruthie Henshall's All That Jazz.
