The only song that has ever made me cry in the theatre would be "The Beauty Is - reprise" from Piazza. The explosion of emotion from Margaret gets me everytime. Such a beautiful and honest moment for the character. Vicki delivers it like a champ.

Posted: 3/19/06 at 1:55amDamn, as I've said here before. I blubber like a baby for some reasong when I here "It's a fine life" in Oliver. The break - "not for me, the happy home, happy husband, happy life" launches my rocket. I guess I think of all the sad women who had to settle (and I'm a straight guy, don't do that, ladies)in life. Who'd a guessed Lionel Bart could have dreamed up that?

Without You- RENT
I'll cover you- RENT
"Only for Now"- Avenue Q. That has to be the one of the most accurate songs for the life everyone lives. I mean, all the songs of Avenue Q represent people in some way or another but I guess "Only For Now" really hits me because...I know it's over
but....Only for Now!

Last I remember would be:
Waiting On The Farside Banks of Jordan
from Ring of Fire. I was a complete and total mess sitting in the 3rd row, Cass Morgan is an AMAZING performer, made the performance for me.

I am such a theater nut, usually when the overture sounds, or the first defining notes of a show start, I am a mess...pathetic, I know.
that said...
The line, "to LOVE another person is to see the face of GOD" without a doubt kills me. The whole phrase leading up to that line and the line itself is so profound, to me it is truth.
and the I Love You Song from SB

From "The Boy From Oz" recording: "Love Don't Need A Reason", "I Honestly Love You" and "Once Before I Go." from Roman in Austin, Texas

Posted: 3/20/06 at 10:31pmAHH, broadwayboy430, I know EXACTLY what you mean about the overtures and first notes of shows. Chills. Adrenaline. Tears. I love it.
