Not a Day Goes By (Merrily We Roll Along) - the, um, happy one, not the angry version.

I Could Have Danced All Night
Almost Like Being in Love
I've Never Been in Love Before
All I Ask of You

I'm sure I'll think of more!

(Really enjoyed that MrMatt mentioned "Breeze Off the River" from "The Full Monty")

Seductive: Hard to beat "Lazy Afternoon" from "The Golden Apple"
Simple-feminine: "What Makes Me Love Him?" from "The Apple Tree"
Simple-masculine: "Eve" from "The Apple Tree"
Wondrously / madly: "He Plays the Violin" from "1776"
"She Likes Basketball" from "Promises, Promises"
Old-school-Classics: "You're Nearer" (film version of "Too Many Girls" by R&Hart)

I also like "I Think I've Got You Beat" from Shrek.

My favorite right now is: "Loving You Keeps Me Alive," sung by James Barbour on Wildhorn's Dracula concept album.

My second favorite is: "Where's the Girl?" sung by Terrence Mann from The Scarlet Pimpernel.

I love Broadway music - always have, so I thought I would read through these hundreds of interviews to see how many of the artists would agree with my choices. Not one of them or any of the posters in this thread, so far, do either. At least, no one agrees with any of my first five choices. Tell me, am I looney or just off base, please.

1. Smoke Gets in Your Eyes - Roberta
2. Try to Remember - The Fantastiks
3. Sunrise, Sunset - Fiddler on the Roof
4. What I Did For Love - A Chorus Line
5. You'll Never Walk Alone - Carousel

My last two choices were Send in the Clowns - A Little Night Music and Somewhere - West Side Story. These were mentioned.
I just find it hard to believe my choices were not obvious to anyone else.

Comment please. Thank you.

There are so many great ones but my two favorites are "If I Loved You" and "Til There Was You".
