Sexy Broadway Songs?

Posted: 11/1/09 at 10:46pm

Excuse me if this has been asked before, I searched and nothing came up.

Are there any uptempo, sexy show tunes out there? I need one for a choreography project, but the only one I can think of at the moment is Big Spender. Any help is greatly appreciated!

I think 'Let It Go' has some great choreo potential but maybe it's not as up tempo as you're looking for.

I know Blaxx will come out from somewhere and hit me over the head with a large, cumbersome frying pan, but "Superlover" from BKLYN.

What about "Hot Honey Rag" from Chicago? Or does it not have enough lyrics?

It's not really uptempo, but "Lost and Found" from City of Angels.

Burgundy is right, "Let it Go" from The Fully Monty is a good one. "Out Tonight" from Rent would be another good choice.

Don't Tell Mama from Cabaret. Definitely.

Sooner or Later can be a great song to use. Technically it's from a movie (Dick Tracy) but it's still Sondheim.

I'll second Don't Tell Mama and Let It Go...lots of interesting choreo possibilities with those.

"Mein Herr" is much sexier with much more choreography potential.

Look into songs from Cabaret and Chicago.

"Be Italian" from NINE can be pretty sexy...

Also, there's plenty to choose from in Spring Awakening.

Seconding "Lost & Found," as sung by Rachel York in City of Angels.

I'll forgive you this time around.

Gimme Love from Kiss of the Spider Woman is up-tempo and sexy.
