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"
"Great Big Stuff" from DRS
"What Is It About Her?" from The Wild Party
"Dentist!" from LSOH
"Hair" and "I Got Life" from Hair
"Heaven On Their Minds" from JCS


There's a lot I am not certain of...

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. re: Songs from musicals that are SO good, you'd consider having a gender op

Anything Don Quixote sings in Man of La Mancha.

"Music of the Night" even though it's rather overdone and annoys me now. *ducks*

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.
