My favorite love song on Broadway is "Satisfied" from Hamilton. The song immediately made my heart weep. The setting takes place at Hamilton and Eliza's wedding reception. In the middle of Angelica's toast, she begins to reminisce on her secret love and feelings for Hamilton. She wanted Hamilton from the moment she laid eyes on him BUT she saw Eliza loved him as well. Her love for her younger sister is so strong that she lets her have Hamilton. Angelica's main focus is to protect her sisters, even if it means she can never be with the love of her life. Satisfied is beautiful. Renee Goldberry's voice mixed with the music is almost haunting. Her rap game is also on point! I don't know how anyone could listen to these lyrics without getting chills!

"Your Eyes" from RENT. That's a good one.

"You Matter to Me" from Waitress because Gavin Creel and Sara Bareilles are singing it right now and I'm going to go see it as soon as I can.

It would have to be "Light My Candle" from Rent. You know, it's dark and it's seedy and it just happens, it seems, almost in an improvisational way. Two people meeting. One looking for a packet and the other one who's put up barriers to the world. And so, to me, that's probably, for my taste, the closest thing to a love song that I respond to.

“On The Streets of Dublin” from A Man of No Importance. This song is sheer perfection musically and lyrically. It is the ultimate “love of life” song: an impassioned cry to open your eyes and love what is there at your fingertips, in your veins, and in your blood.

My favorite Broadway love song is: “Forever Yours” from Once On This Island. The song manages to capture so much beauty and heartbreak in every other phrase. The juxtaposition is so magnificent.

After much contemplation, I keep coming back to one of the first legit songs I ever learned after my voice changed from boy soprano to baritone - "Some Enchanted Evening" from SOUTH PACIFIC. After having performed this song out of the context of the Rodgers and Hammerstein musical, and now having performed it over 200 times with LCT and LCT Nat'l Tour, it still evokes great emotion and love in me every time I sing it. It remains for me one of the best loved love songs ever written, for any generation - it is timeless....I've gotta go get ready to enchant now.

One of my favorite Broadway love songs is "I Don't Know His Name" from She Loves Me. It's all about meeting someone and them revealing their inside as opposed to just judging them from the outside, because they meet through the letters. That's a really pretty one.

I'll tell you what, I love "Follow Your Heart" from Urinetown. I just love that duet and that moment and that show. It's fantastic.

"Maria" from WEST SIDE STORY. Powerful young love propelling the melody and he can't stop saying her name. "Not a Day Goes By" - talk about having your heart on your sleeve! and..."Sometimes a Day Goes By" concise, with heartbreaking irony.

Well, it sounds obvious, but my favorite right now is the love song I get to sing in The Band’s Visit, “The Beat of Your Heart." Among the many things he achieves with “The Beat of Your Heart," David Yazbek ingeniously turns a song about lost love into a song of inspiration to all those lovers who have lost their way. Every night I feel grateful to be able to sing “Maybe music is the food of love, but music and love, who can tell them apart?” I mean, music and love. What else is there, right?

“If I Loved You” is one of the greatest love songs of all time, so I guess that’s mine!

"The Next Ten Minutes" from The Last Five Years.

"Not While I’m Around" from Sweeney Todd. Love it because I think it’s melodically & lyrically perfect and is both sweet & haunting at the same time.

Although my reasons are personal, my favorite song is "He Was Too Good To Me" by Rodgers and Hart.

I love "What More Can I Say" from FALSETTOS. It's gay and contemporary and beautiful; but it's also universal, so a woman could sing it too. I love Michael Rupert singing it from the original cast, and Tami Tappan's version on her album is equally gorgeous.

My choice is "This Nearly Was Mine." It's a song about loss, yes, but If you can find the version by Ed Alstrom (on "Acid Cabaret") I promise it will tear your heart out. The song aches with a missed opportunity, but you know that the singer is a changed person and will not let that chance pass again, which is ultimately most hopeful and romantic!

I think it would have to be "Everyone Loves Louis" from Sunday in the Park with George. Not your usual romantic love song but a complicated funny plea, in a way. Dot sings of Louis the Baker, to George the Artist, who she truly loves but can't truly have. That excruciating pain of love. I sing it as my warm up song most nights when performing.

My favorite love song from a musical is probably It "Couldn’t Please Me More" from Cabaret. It’s written by one of the most indelible and nuanced composer/lyricist duos of all-time in Kander and Ebb. The song is beautiful, unique, and expresses the unavoidable connections between love and death, hope and loss. The song, like much of Cabaret, shows us the importance of a dim light when in complete darkness. And what better way is there to express love than by gifting a pineapple.

"On the Street Where You Live" from MY FAIR LADY is my favorite Broadway love song. I think it's so poetic, dreamy, and romantic. Plus, my husband, Jonathan Shew, sent me a recording of him singing it when we were first dating and he sounded incredible :) I smile every time I listen to it!

"My Man" from Funny Girl because I love Barbra Streisand and it's heartbreaking and hopeful and beautiful and I love Funny Girl, everything about Funny Girl.

"They Were You" from The Fantasticks. Simple melody, simple lyrics, profound effect. It gets me every time. I can't stop there, though! "I've Grown Accustomed to Her Face" from My Fair Lady is another one. Simple, specific and incredibly powerful.

“Only You” from Starlight Express.

My favorite Broadway love song is "I Got Love" from a musical back in the day called Purlie

“I Am Changing” Dream Girls. I love it for many reasons but this particular line “All of my life I’ve been a fool / Who said I could do it all alone.” THAT for me is love.

I am crazy for "A Little Bit in Love" from Wonderful Town. This song is the perfect combination of classic broadway romance with a modern train of thought. The first lyric is a simple sigh of relief, it's so dreamy!

"Trust" in Me by Etta James.

There really are too many to choose just one! Three of my favorites are "They Were You" from the Fantasticks, "Do You Love Me?" from Fiddler and "Fable" from Light in the Piazza. All extremely different but equally beautiful and moving songs about love. Also, when Tony and Maria first meet in West Side Story-- one of the most romantic scenes in theater ever.

I love Valentine’s Day, but I love Andrew Lippa more. Every song from Big Fish seems to track with falling or being in love, but especially “Time Stops.” If/when this is revived, please let me be 30, still southern and unemployed.

My favorite song for Valentine's Day is "Something Wonderful" from THE KING AND I. I like it because it exactly describes my feelings about my husband Larry.
