Okay:

Just hearing the first few notes from "Why" from tick, tick...BOOM!, and realizing what is to come (I sob openly for that song)

Any performance of Defying Gravity or No Good Deed LIVE...and only live.

You Can't Stop the Beat...my legs shake uncontrolably...it's weird

Any cast I've seen of Aida who's performed "The Gods Love Nubia"...that song gives me chills. Especially when Heather Headley leads it. *shiver*

'When I first heard Norbert come in "As Long As Your Mine".'

It might just be me but that really cracked me up for all the wrong reasons.

ANYWAY, the number that gives me the most chills has to be 'Tomorrow belongs to me' from Cabaret.

'Tell me it's not true' and 'Light Romance' - Blood Brothers
'Movie in my mind' - Miss Saigon

I get positive chills when people like Adam Pascal, Sherie Rene Scott, Maureen McGovern, Jesse L Martin, Victoria Clarke etc belt it out.

I'm sure there are a lot more of these moments for me but that'll do for now.

'He really wasn't good as Fieyro. Is it just me or does he sort of come across as a pimp? Just...the hand motions I've seen him do and the attitude..not that Taye is a pimp.' - SallyBrown on Taye Diggs as Fiyero

Only you, QM.

Currently, the Overture/Statues and Stories in Piazza's been doing it for me.

Too many moments to list, but like QM said, it's the voices. You can guess whose.

A work of art is an invitation to love.

Anyone performing Defying Gravity, especially Idina

Anatevka from Fiddler(context more than performance)

Last scene of Cabaret Revival-how could it not?

Many scenes from Light In the Piazza-the blending of beautiful voices with the costumes, gorgeous scenery, lighting, etc.-I just think how beautiful it is

Orchestra of Light In The Piazza--amazing!!

Overture of Phantom as the chandelier lifts

I Am What I Am in La Cage

Seasons of Love solo if superbly performed

"If there was a Mount Rushmore for Broadway scores, "West Side Story" would be front and center. It snaps, it crackles it pops! It surges with a roar, its energy and sheer life undiminished by the years" - NYPost reviewer Elisabeth Vincentelli

Whenever that man in the picture on the left, Anthony Warlow, opens his mouth to sing a song it is truly a gift from GOD. It is unbelievable that there is a person in the world with that much talent. If you want to hear brilliance and perfection, listen to this man sing

Les Miserables "One Day More", and "Come to Me" usually does it for me everytime. Along with Sutton's "Gimme, Gimme", and West ?Side Story's "Somewhere".
