6. A Song From a Musical that Makes You Sad/Teary

Rent "Goodbye Love"



Rent is one of my newest musical discoveries. I finally came across it one morning on television and wished I had seen it sooner. You fall in love with an amazing group of people; all artists, musicians, and people full of dreams and aspirations for life. But you also know a few of these people are dealing with a deadly diagnosis... AIDS. To see the group fall apart after one of them died is absolutely heartbreaking. It completely changed the tone of the musical all the way to the end. I loved the reality of this musical and how you find yourself appreciating life after watching it. You seize the opportunity to love your life and your friends because it makes you realize that, in an instant, you could lose someone... forever.
