Let's see....well as of last week I can tack about four more songs onto my list. Those being "Fable" and "Love to Me" from LITP and "The Color Purple" and "What About Love" from TCP...in addition I lost it in Rent both the film and stage versions of "I'll Cover You" (reprise) and the ending sequence of Aida...

Songs rarely ever provoke me to cry. Chills, yes. Tingles down my spine, yes. Goosebumps, yes. Exhiliration, yes yes yes. Crying, never. I know, I know, I'm a heartless wretch.
Still, I've teared up a tiny bit at "The Next Ten Minutes" from TL5Y, due to its sheer beauty. And I have to admit, "One Song Glory" sometimes gets to me.
"We don't value the lily less for not being made of flint and built to last. Life's bounty is in it's flow, later is too late. Where is the song when it's been sung, the dance when it's been danced? It's only we humans who want to own the future too."
- Tom Stoppard, Shipwreck
The Elephant Bird portion of Seussical. Even on record it gets to me. "I have wings, yes, I can fly, you teach him earth and I will teach him sky." Yeah...Sh!
I'll admit it, I cried my way through the second act of Les Mis. Oh, and "No One is Alone" is beautiful and tragic. But there's so many songs that make me cry, I can't list them all here. These are just the first to pop into my head.
Oh, and not from Broadway, but "The Wings" by Gustavo Santorello (the Brokeback Mountain theme) made me sob the first time I saw it after I saw the movie.
"Writing should be easy, like a monkey driving a speedboat..." -[title of show]
"I'm tired of following my dreams. I'm just going to ask them where they're going and meet up with them later." -Mitch Hedberg
Alone in the Universe from Seussical breaks my heart and so does Fallen Angel from Jersey Boys.
Butters, go buy World of Warcraft, install it on your computer, and join the online sensation before we all murder you.

ATTENTION FANS: I will be played by James Barbour in the upcoming musical, "BroadwayWorld: The Musical."
Being Alive, depending on how it's done. One moment where I always want to cry is "Blow out the candles Robert, make a wish. Want something, want SOMETHING" It's just so intense, love it.
Losing My Mind, beautiful song.
Goodbye Until Tomorrow
Stay With Me, Into the Woods.
Theatre is a safe place to do the unsafe things that need to be done.
