Favorite broadway songs?

Can anyone think of any very romantic songs from broadway musicals? Thinking about including in some way into my reception/ceremony. I used to know a lot, but I am drawing a blank.

I'll Cover You from RENT! Love that song. I wanted to use it as our song, but FH didn't like that it is sung between to gay guys. Oh well.

Also:
One Hand, One Heart - West Side Story
There's a Place For Us - West Side Story
Seasons of Love - Rent

Re: Favorite broadway songs?

ohhh... so many great ones


If ever I would Leave You- Camelot
I'll Cover You- Rent
Seasons of Love- Rent
WIthout You- My fair lady
I could have Danced All Night- my fair lady

I know I will come up wtih some more later...

I know someone said on my own- but that song is about someone who was abandoned by their love- not the best for a wedding.

Re: Favorite broadway songs?

I'm thinking of possibly singing for my FH. It's a big MAYBE though...
I will look up the lyrics to some of the songs suggested that I don't know. Any more?

Re: Favorite broadway songs?

Love this question, we are using the song from Kiss me Kate "So in Love" written by Cole Porter, it is a duet. I first heard in the movie De-Lovely, just release in theater. I was going to use the Phantom, All I ask of you.

"Love Changes Everything" from the musical Aspects of Love (I think written by ANdrew Lloyd Weber). One of my favorite showtunes!

Re: Favorite broadway songs?

One more I forgot...really pretty b'way song called "Unexpected Song". I have a Sarah Brightman CD that this is on, its beautiful.. I attached the lyrics :)

Unexpected Song

I have never felt like this
For once I'm lost for words
Your smile has really thrown me
This is not like me at all
I never thought I'd know
The kind of love you've shown me

Now, no matter where I am
No matter what I do
I see your face appearing
Like an unexpected song
An unexpected song
That only we are hearing

I don't know what is going on
Can't work it out at all
Whatever made you choose me
I just can't believe my eyes
You look at me as though
You couldn't bear to lose me

Now, no matter where I am
No matter what I do
I see your face appearing
Like an unexpected song
An unexpected song
That only we are hearing

I have never felt like this
For once I'm lost for words
Your smile has really thrown me
This is not like me at all
I never thought I'd know
The kind of love you've shown me

Now, no matter where I am
No matter what I do
I see your face appearing
Like an unexpected song
An unexpected song
That only we are hearing

Like an unexpected song
An unexpected song
That only we are hearing

Re: Favorite broadway songs?

I love the song "Younger than Springtime" from South Pacific. Also, either "Somewhere" or "One Hand, One Heart" from West Side Story are great too.

That is such a fun idea!
