Share the songs that move you (from musicals).


My wife used to drag me to musicals, until I began to appreciate them. Then I heard a couple songs from CHESS, and I was hooked. My God these two are thematic. I challenge you not to be moved. And the voices of Sissel Kyrkjebo and Tommy Korberg…they give me the chills every time.
