Valentine's Day is my wedding anniversary with Steve Bakunas. Eight years this year. One of my favorites is "Do I Love You Because You're Beautiful" from Rodgers & Hammerstein's Cinderella, now open on Broadway and soon be a huge success. Its gorgeous music brings us hope and joy! I love this song in particular because it is honest and romantic!

This is very appropriate for this Valentine's Day for me. Connie Francis has a song called "I'm Nobody's Baby." It goes, "I'm nobody's baby. I wonder why each night and day I pray that the Lord up above can send me down somebody to love." Sad and beautiful. That's for me.

My favorite Broadway love song is "Always Starting Over" from If/Then. I’ve always been struck by the idea that the most powerful thing about love or loving someone is that at some point it’s going to end, either because one person passes on or because the relationship ends. But we love anyway, and that, to me, is quite powerful. Always Starting Over acknowledges the pain of loss while celebrating the time had together and the challenge and hope in carrying on and moving forward.

The most romantic Broadway love song ever is "Something Good" from THE SOUND OF MUSIC

I think my favorite Broadway love song would have to be "Some Other Time" from On the Town. I think it captures beautifully the uncertainty of love and the idea that if you truly love someone you have to let them go live their best life.

"Say it Somehow" from The Light in the Piazza.

"I've Grown Accustomed to Her Face” by Frederick Loewe and Alan Jay Lerner. The rise and fall of the melody and Higgins’ realization in the lyric of just how deep he has fallen in love gets me every time. A perfect song.

I don't know if it's exactly a love song, but I love the song "Worlds Apart" from Big River. I mean, it's kind of a friendship love song, but it's more like a bigger concept. That whole show, that whole score is so incredible. I would go with that as my favorite.

Ok. Full disclosure. Not since I made lists of baby names for my kids have I had as many sleepless nights as I have had trying to choose my favorite Broadway love song, but "Time After Time" - the gorgeous Jule Styne song - is a constant in my head, especially as sung by my beloved friend, Judy Kuhn. I don't know if I would have believed you if you told me that, years after I first heard her sing it, she would end up singing me down the aisle at my own wedding, but she did!

My favorite Broadway love song is “Do You Love Me?” from Fiddler on the Roof. It reminds me of my grandparents and the nature of their relationship, and every time it just makes me cry.

If we include Off-Broadway, "Times Like This" from Lucky Stiff. But I think my favorite one is "You Rule My World" from The Full Monty. I loved seeing that song on tour (and for auditions).

"If I Loved You" from Carousel. A deeply human and real love song between two amazing characters.

There are so many amazing Broadway love songs but I'm going with an oldie but goodie. "Tonight" from West Side Story. Classic and timeless.

"Loving You" from PASSION "In Whatever Time We Have" from CHILDREN OF EDEN comes in close second "Forever Yours" from ONCE ON THIS ISLAND comes in 3rd.

"Some Enchanted Evening." Mostly because it reminds me of a horrible knock knock joke my mom used to tell: Knock Knock. Who's there? Sam and Janet. Sam and Janet who? SaammandJannnnnted Evvenninnngg. It doesn't really work but I loved the singing!

'Make Our Garden Grow' from Candide

"As Long as He Needs Me" from Oliver. It's so awful especially now but I think it's about wanting to share your life and give something to somebody else and how you sometimes feel destroyed if you can't give your love.

I think it’s a tie between "A Little Fall of Rain" from Les Misérables and "Love Song" from Pippin. I think they capture the small details of love that are so complicated but interesting. Obviously, "A Little Fall of Rain" being the more heart wrenching side, while "Love Song" is about the little heartwarming things that we take for granted until we are in love.

Most romantic? "One Hand, One Heart" from West Side Story - can't hear that song without a lump in my throat, Most deliciously romantic? "Our Private World" from On the Twentieth Century!

One of my favorite Broadway Love songs is "Lucky To Be Me" from On The Town. The show has such a special place in my heart and the melody and lyrics complement each other so beautifully. But since that's a solo, if I had to pick a Broadway love duet, I'd choose "Love Song" from Pippin or "Ten Minutes Ago" from Rodgers and Hammerstein's Cinderella.

"Elephant Love Medley" from Moulin Rouge! I am a passionate and dramatic person and I love this part of the show. The moment of seeing the person and being in love immediately... it's so exciting.

It's not exactly a love song, but it's "Shall We Dance" from The King and I. I think it's one of the greatest moments in musical theatre. Two characters who clearly love eachother but aren't allowed to say it out loud.

"Lay Down Your Head" from VIOLET

My choice of a Broadway love song is actually a compilation! They are from Next To Normal and I couldn't pick just one because Tom Kitt created an entire beautifully executed love balled in all four of these reprises. I love the composition and the story. "Perfect For You," "Hey #1," "Hey #2" and "Hey #3." Tom Kitt wrote some gorgeous music.

My favorite Broadway love song has certainly become 'Can't Take My Eyes Off You' for all the love it continues to bring me from my audience.

"Not While I'm Around" from Sweeney Todd. I just think it's complicated, simple and so affirming to the characters when they need it.

My boyfriend and I just watched the pro-shot of Passion, the opening, "So Much Happiness'... I cry every time. Sondheim had the ability to, to allow us to feel what true love is in the first 10 minutes of that show. It was beautiful.

My favorite Broadway love song is "With You" from Pippin. It's a gorgeous melody. It's very simple but truly honest. I just love that show.

"The Origin of Love" from HEDWIG AND THE ANGRY INCH.

It's a hard question but I will go with "Her Face" from Carninval
