If you're into musical theatre, you know that many of the best songs are not love songs at all. Often the villain's song or another non-love related song steals the show. However, everyone can appreciate a good love song and musicals are full of them. Here are, in my opinion, seventeen of the greatest musical theatre love songs.
1. “All I Ask of You” from "The Phantom of the Opera"
2. "Maria" from "West Side Story"
3. "Music That Makes Me Dance” from "Funny Girl"
4. “Something Good” from "The Sound of Music"
5. “Dulcinea” from "The Man of La Mancha"
6. “Falling Slowly” from "Once"
7. “Unusual Way” from "Nine"
8.“With You” from "Ghost"
9. “How Could I Ever Know” from "The Secret Garden"
10. “I’ll Know” from "Guys and Dolls"
11. “The Way He Makes Me Feel” from "Yentl"
12. “Love Never Dies” from "Love Never Dies"
13. “One Hand, One Heart” from "West Side Story"
14. "If I Loved You" from "Carousel"
15. "Some Enchanted Evening" from "South Pacific"
16. "Take the World Away" from "Little by Little"
17. "Somewhere" from "West Side Story"
There are just a few of the most wonderful, magical love songs ever to grace the stage. I hope you've enjoyed!
