I hope that this thread will continue as it has in the past, but thought it might be revitalizing and fun to add a twist.

What are your favorite songs from shows?

Here are mine -- at least off the top of my head.

Male Solo --Anthem from Chess (honorable mention -- Your Eyes from Rent)
Female Solo -- Memories from Cats
Male Duet -- Lily's Eyes from The Secret Garden
Female Duet -- His Eyes from Jekyl and Hyde (there seem to be a lot of "eyes" here)(honorable mention -- Because I Knew You from Wicked)
Male/Female Duet -- Elaborate Lives from Aida (honorable mention -- Written In The Stars from Aida)
Trio -- A Step Too Far from Aida
Quartet -- Not Me from Aida (OK, I really like Aida)(Honorable mention Once Upon A Time from Broklyn, The Musical)
Novelty (for instance by a narrator) Shoes Upon The Table from Blood Brothers

I reserve the right to change my mind as I think of things later.

I like this idea. Some of my favorites:

Male solo - "Maria" and "Cool" from West Side Story
Female solo - "Nothing" from A Chorus Line, "I'm Not That Girl" from Wicked
Female duet - "For Good" from Wicked or "Take Me or Leave Me" from Rent
Male duet - "I'll Cover You" from Rent
Trio - "At the Ballet" from A Chorus Line
Quartet - "Tonight" from West Side Story (OK, so this isn't quite a quartet)
Ensemble - "Seasons of Love" from Rent and "Montage" from A Chorus Line
Novelty (a funny song) - "Dance: 10, Looks: 3" from A Chorus Line

You can tell what my favorite musicals are

[AlphaFrog]

Male Solo --Lost in the Wilderness - Children of Eden
Female Solo -- Popular - Wicked
Male Duet -- Lily's Eyes from The Secret Garden
Female Duet -- For Good - Wicked
Male/Female Duet -- Sooo many, but I have to say right now it's As Long As You're Mine (Pattern much? Well, what do you expect from someone with my signature? )
Trio -- Near to You - Damn Yankees
Quartet -- Can I say the entirety of songs for a new world? No? Ok, Flying Home.
Novelty (for instance by a narrator) - Many Moons Ago - Once Upon A Matress

Great choices!!

For me, for the new category, I'd chose:

High On A Hill or the finale from The Secret Garden, or the finale from Les Miz.
