Does a love song in a musical ever strike you as you watch someone breathe life to it on stage? Kicking off a new series of building themed playlists for each month, I built a playlist of Broadway love songs sure to enchant this February.
Each playlist will be built on Spotify, but I’ll share the list incase you want to replicate your own on another music player.
Love songs can be a very broad category in musical theatre, so I narrowed my search with a few parameters. This mix is created from contemporary musicals, 2010 and forward, and using no revivals in the 2010–2020 stretch.
A sweet mix of upbeat love songs and heartfelt duets, this is Broadway Love Songs Vol. 1:
