I've seen Spring Awakening twice very recently, and I couldn't stop crying during "Left Behind" both times. Seriously. Tears running down my face, down my neck, into my lap, I was crying so much.

def jumping on the bandwagon with Left Behind. Its not even one of my favorite tunes or anything, but its just soooooo heartwrenching. the lyrics, Stephen Spinella durring it, everything.

also Those You've Known.

I don't need a life that's normal. That's way too far away. But something next to normal would be okay. Something next to normal is what I'd like to try. Close enough to normal to get by.

No question-

Blood Brothers: Tell Me it's Not True
Blood Brothers: Take a Letter Ms. Jones
Merrily We Roll Along: Our Time (mostly within context)

Canadians are not afraid of the dark! Ok...we don't love it, but who does?

A lot of Lippa's Wild Party, especially Jackie's Last Dance - (The music is just gorgeous, it really tugs at a heartstring)

I love Jackie's Last Dance. I'm one of those impatient people who normally can't listen to just instrumentals, but the music in this song is just beautiful.

One time, Patti LuPone punched me in the face...

"Fable" from "The Light in the Piazza."
"Will You?," "Around the World," and "Another Winter in a Summer Town" from "Grey Gardens."
"Something Wonderful" from "The King and I."
"Rose's Turn" and "Everything's Coming Up Roses" from "Gypsy."
"What I Did for Love" and "The Music and the Mirror" from "A Chorus Line."

"Zing went the strings of my heart," I guess you can say.

Some people paint, some people sew, I meddle.

The one that comes to mind right now is "Sarah" from THE CIVIL WAR. God, I tear up every single time I hear it.

Being Alive from Company

It's the only song that made me cry when I first heard it performed live. I still get a little teary-eyed when I hear it, despite having listened to it hundreds of times.

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

"Dividing Day" from LITP makes me tear up.

"Someone Is Waiting" from Company makes me sad too.

Also, the end of Caroline, or Change - I cried from Lot's Wife through the end. The part where Noah asks Caroline, "And sharing a cigarette. Do you miss sharing a cigarette?" and she replys "You bet I do, Noah. You bet." That was a heart-wrenching moment for me.

I'm as jumpy as a virgin at a prison rodeo!

Recently, I started to get emotional when I was listening to the I Love You Song from Spelling Bee....maybe I'm mad at parents for not showing up to a show when I was in 4th grade!!!!
