"My Cup Runneth Over" from I DO! I DO!

I would say "She Loves Me from She Loves Me. I just have always been in love with that show and that music and that world. Yeah, one of my faves.

"Say it Somehow" from The Light in the Piazza. The combination of such a beautiful, sweeping melody and the story of two young lovers finding a way to communicate without words is so incredibly romantic I can hardly stand it. It is one my most favourite duets to sing.

What's the one from Merrily...? It started off like a song... "Good Thing Going." It's kind of a sad love song, which I enjoy because sometimes love is sad. Happy Valentine's day!

My favorite love songs are "So Many People," "Saturday Night," "If I Loved You," "All the Things You Are." I love that there is a sense of melancholy in all of them. That there isn't like one clean expression. That it's always both. That there is something lost and something gained and something unsure that builds to a commitment.

My favorite Broadway love song is "Sunrise" from In the Heights. It captures the feeling of new love, with all its uncertainty, and how we are often being pulled in many different directions, by our responsibilities, expectations, and obligations. It's also just a gorgeous song, sung beautifully by the legends Mandy "the Beast" Gonzalez and Christopher Jackson. Swoon!

"Johanna" from Sweeney Todd. I happened to see a concert production in San Francisco with Georger Hearn, Patti Lupone, and Neil Patrick Harris when I was 11 and I've been a fan of the piece ever since.

When I think of classic romantic songs from shows like South Pacific, while they are beautiful, they don't really have much to do with my life. So my idea of Broadway's romantic song is one that moves me with a true sense of what it's like to be in love now, all of the emotions, not just the first blush. Three come to mind. First, for the sad sack in your life there is "Next Best Thing to Love" from A Class Act. An unbelievable song, and Randy Graff kills it. Second, both the original and above all the reprise of "I'll Cover You" from Rent. It's heart wrenching, and gorgeous. Shout out to Jesse Martin -a classier guy you will not find. Finally, I think the most romantic composer we have is William Finn. I count "Sailing", and "I Feel So Much Spring" as all time favorites that make you go fuzzy inside. But my one true choice for most romantic song is "Four Unlikely Lovers" from Falsettoland. Knocks me out every time. Thanks Bill.

I just love "Unexpected Song" from SONG AND DANCE.

"We Kiss in A Shadow" from THE KING AND I.

Since the show wasn't ever officially on Broadway (I don't think) it might not count, but my favorite love song is "Heart an' Hand" from Floyd Collins. It's not about fresh new love, or that rocket-explosion exciting thing. It's a grounded, quiet love and commitment, a vow to be there with and for each other during the most excruciating or terrifying of times. Romance is so much fun, and, this song speaks to me of true, deep, abiding love.

"Who Will Love Me As I Am?" from SIDE SHOW because it describes the perfect unconditional love.

“Worlds Apart” from Big River

I tend to favor "loss songs" such as "What Did I Have That I Don't Have?" and "I've Grown Accustomed to Her Face" (both Lerner matched at every turn by Lane and Loewe, respectively) over "love songs" . . . however where Love at First Listen is concerned: "The Song is You" (by Kern & Hammerstein, as brilliantly constructed a theme as has ever been composed); "Maria" (Bernstein & Sondheim, and surely no one has ever sung it better than its originator Larry Kert); and "I Didn't Know What Time It Was" by Rodgers and Hart. Or anything else that duo ever wrote together.

I love "What About Love?" from The Color Purple because the lyrics are so true. This is what life is about, our love!

Wow, it is impossible to pick only one but here are my top picks. The lyrics to all these songs are sublime and one could do them as monologues without the music and they stand alone but then you add the music and well.... "When Did I Fall in Love?" from FIORELLO. "Vanilla Ice Cream" From SHE LOVES ME. "Soliloquy" and "If I Loved You" from CAROUSEL, "Maria" and "Somewhere" from WEST SIDE STORY. However, I can't not mention my favorite romantic song ever "Inside your Heart" from Bat Boy". Ah, the things we do for love.

"What About Love?" from THE COLOR PURPLE.

"Loving You" from Passion because love is beautifully obsessive and ruining your life shouldn’t be a one-person job.

My favorite Broadway love song is "Gold" from Once. Everything about it is beautiful- the instrumentation, the lyrics, the passion, the Irish sound. The song as a whole is soulful, emotional, and moving. It's the song you wish was written about you.

"One Hand, One Heart" from West Side Story

I'm not sure this qualifies as a "Broadway" love song, but it's a song called "Home" written by musical theatre composer John Bucchino. I've always loved that song. So simple. Just describing how being with someone feels like "home." Makes me cry every time!

I have to go with "Maria" from WEST SIDE STORY. The melody, the wanting, all add up to the most romantic song ever in my humble opinion.

Mine is "Written in the Stars" from Aida, because it's put into perspective how difficult being in love can really be and how we can be confined to color and money over our hearts desires. I love anything that makes me think, and this song does that! Plus it's written and sang beautifully!

"One Hand, One Heart" from WEST SIDE STORY. Bernstein music, Sondheim lyrics, the perfection every heart longs to find, coupled with the surety of youth. The combination makes my heart actually hurt.

"On the Street Where You Live" from My Fair Lady, "Come Rain or Come Shine" from St. Louis Woman, and "My Funny Valentine" from Babes in Arms

It may be kind of an odd love song, but I like "Not While I'm Around" from Sweeney Todd. The very first time I heard it when I was a kid, it was just deeply stirring to me and it has remained so. No matter who's singing it.

I like "Close As Pages In A Book." That Romberg melody is romantic in an old-fashioned way, but the Dorothy Fields lyric keeps it sly and sweet. I like it in a low, jazzed up version. It's about two people being so close they know exactly what the other is feeling, which is what I feel about my husband and myself, and that "like the closest book is bound, we're bound to last" . And it's kinda geeky.

One of my favorite traditional Broadway love songs is "It Never Was You" by Weill and Anderson. The lyrics, the accompaniment...it's beautiful music. I will never get tired of this song. One of my favorite contemporary Broadway love songs is "The Next Ten Minutes" by Jason Robert Brown. Ugghh this song makes me feel things. It makes my insides twist and turn. Seriously though, if it comes on in my headphones while I'm walking down the street you can bet on instant tears.

"Last Night Of The World" from Miss Saigon. So romantic.
