For some reason I cannot explain, my throat tightens up on the melody of "It's a Fine Life" from "Oliver" when Nancy sings "Not for me, the happy home, happy husband, happy wife..." It gets me every time.

I also love practically anything from "Irma La Douce" including especially the title song. Boy that Maugerite Monnot sure knew how to write a damn fine melody (she also wrote for Edith Piaf.)

Some of these may have already been posted, I apologize. Some of these aren't from Broadway shows, but all are musical theatre.

"Johanna" from Sweeney Todd
"Ariadne" from The Frogs
"New Music" from Ragtime
"Make Them Hear You" from Ragtime
"Somewhere" from West Side Story
"Maria" from West Side Story
"Are You There?" from Bare: A Pop Opera
"The Limpopo River" from Just So
"Unusual Way" from Nine
