darkmist, don't feel bad about enjoying "Defying Gravity". It's a beautiful song and maybe people love it.
This are my choices
"Shiksa Goddess" from L5Y
"Something's Coming" and "Maria" from WSS
Any of the men's songs from Rent- "One Song Glory", "Today 4 U", "Santa Fe", "I'll Cover You", "Halloween", "What You Own"

"Dentist!" from LSOH

I Am Changing. Dreamgirls.
Piece of Sky. Yentl. I'm sorry.
I just learned, from this thread, that we likely have no transsexuals on this board, because if we did they would likely find the idea of having an operation simply to sing a song so patently offensive that they would have raised hell by now.
I'm just saying.
"Santa Fe" and "What You Own" from Rent, especially the latter.
Anything Don Quixote sings in Man of La Mancha.
"Music of the Night" even though it's rather overdone and annoys me now. *ducks*
"Being Alive" from Company (though there have been some excellent female renditions)
"Finishing the Hat" from Sunday in the Park with George
"Anthem" from Chess
"I Don't Care Much" from Cabaret

DBillyP, don't you mean transgender instead of transsexual? To be transexual means to dress up/act like the opposite gender for sexual reasons. To be transgender is to dress up/act like the opposite gender because they want to be seen as the opposite gender.
