Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
The Pirate Queen has amazing songs and are by the same people who did Les Miserables!. The song "Woman" would be great for you!.

I also love the song "My New Philosophy" from You're A Good Man Charlie Brown

Some others I like are:
"If I Were A Bell" from Guys & Dolls
"Glad to be Unhappy" from On Your Toes
"How Could I Ever Know" from The Secret Garden
"The Girl I Mean to Be" from the Secret Garden
"Wishing You Were Somehow Here" from Phantom of the Opera
"The Light in the Piazza" from The Light in the Piazza
"Show Off" from The Drowsy Chaperone
"Light My Candle" or "Out Tonight" from Rent
"Mama Who Bore Me" And "The Dark I Know Well" from Spring Awakening

I have this series of books http://www!.playbillstore!.com/simuthanse!.!.!.!. for my voice lessons!. They have a great variety of musical theater songs and are all over 200 pages, so well worth the money!. I love the newest (volume 5) mezzo book!. It has a lot of new songs and some different songs I had never heard of!.

Hopefully I helped and enjoy singing!Www@QuestionHome@Com
