    I adore "Unruly Heart", it gives me goosebumps every time I hear it, and assures me that I'm not alone.

    "Somewhere" never fails to turn me into a sobbing mess. It's one of those rare parts of a play or movie that hits even harder after you know how the show ends.

    "For Good" is one of the hardest songs to sing. Not because of technique, but because you have to try your hardest not to cry when it's you or your co-star's last show

    You Will Be Found will always hold a special place in my heart. I went to an arts high school (for creative writing, which, when you remember the role writing plays in Dear Evan Hansen, is pretty funny ngl), and it's tradition for the graduating seniors in the musical theatre and chorus departments to sing one last song together at graduation. The year I graduated, You Will Be Found was the song they chose.

      I have never liked "You'll Never Walk Alone" The placement in the musical is bad. (spoiler) The man just committed suicide, no time for grief and you burst into a hopeful song to go on with life. I cringe every time I hear it played at graduations and funerals.

    For Good always brings tears to my eyes. I can think of one other song that does that, but in that case, it's not Broadway (though is a musical) and it's a sad song (it's implied to be a character's suicide note) - and even then, I don't get chills from the song itself - you have to see it to cry over it, considering the only character who is totally not guilty wants to die.

    • @jackwells8107
      @jackwells8107 Год назад +2

      I honestly wasn't sure if For Good was a happy cry or not. I think my problem is it's hard to separate the song from the fact that it's the end of a friendship.

      @Liam The musical is Heathers. As I said, it's a sad crying scene. The song is called Kindergarten Boyfriend. One of the main characters sings it just before she throws herself off a bridge. Mainly because the boy she'd been in love with for twelve years was dead, the school bullied her relentlessly and even her best friend admitted to playing a cruel prank on her and then told her to get over it (she actually was trying to protect her but had to hurt her to do it). If you're wondering, the attempt fails and her best friend reconciles with her at the end. By that point, four of the eight major characters have died, three by murder and made to look like suicides, one by last-minute sacrificial suicide.

    The song from "Wicked" that always makes me happy cry isn't "For Good", but "Defying Gravity". Granted, in my case, it's probably more the excitement and power of the song, in that particular context, that makes me break out into tears of joy.
