I came up with a couple that nobody on the panel came up with:

"Her Face" from "Carnival!" and "I Won't Send Roses" from "Mack and Mabel."

"My Cup Runneth Over" from "I Do, I Do!"

Ed Ames had a huge hit song on the pop charts with that one.

..."I Won't Send Roses" from "Mack and Mabel."

I thought of this one, too! I would also go with "Night and Day" and "If I Loved You."

A few that people came up with in the 2006 list that are favorites of mine:

"Yours, Yours, Yours" (1776)
"Send in the Clowns" (A Little Night Music)
"All I Ask of You" (The Phantom of the Opera)
"The Party's Over" (Bells Are Ringing)

And from the 2005 list:

"In a Most Unusual Way" (Nine)
"Fallin'" (They're Playing Our Song)

You are young and beautiful,
Sweet as the breath of May.
Earnestly I speak to you.
Weigh ev'ry word I say.

If you want to have a rosy future
And be happy as a honey bee,
With a husband who will always love you,
Baby, Don't marry me.

If you want a man you can depend on,
I can absolutely guarantee
I will never fail to disappoint you,
Baby, Don't marry me.

I eat litchie nuts and cookies in bed
And I fill the bed with nutshells and crumbs.
I have irritating habits you'll dread,
Like the way I have of cracking my thumbs.

My grandpa was a big game hunter,
He met grandma swinging on a tree.
If you want to have attactive children,
Baby, Don't marry me.

--I would like to see my sons and daughters
Sliding up and down their father's knee.--
They'll get splinters in their little fannies,
Cookie, Don't marry me.

I'm devoted to my dear old Mama,
And if you and Mama disagree,
I would always side with her against you,
Schnookie, Don't marry me.

--I would always like to know where you go.
I don't like a man to keep me in doubt.--
Honey that's a thing that's easy to know,
You will always know where I am, I'm out!

I am talking like a Chinese uncle.
I'm as serious as I can be.
I am saying this because I love you,
Darling, Don't marry me

I will admit that I like "What I Did for Love" so much that I have already told all the family that when my time comes (in the distant fture), I want it sung at my memorial service.

"Gone,
Love is never gone.
As we travel on,
Love's hat we'll remember."

"My Cup Runneth Over" from "I Do, I Do!"

Another great choice! Now that my wife and I have been married for a good while, it appeals to me more and more.

Boyoboy, this is a thread I would NEVER have guessed would have been on FreeRepublic.

What's next? Queer Eye for the Freeper Guy?
