One of the best parts about musical theatre are the solos- they are the type of songs where we really get to understand the characters the best. That is because we are just hearing one character. Usually, these songs tend to happen to major characters. Today, I will only be mentioning those that male characters sing. Even songs from non-stage musicals can count.
The Songs
- Bring Him Home
- What Have I Done
- Who Am I
- Stars
- Empty Chairs at Empty Tables
- Music of the Night
- All I Ask of You (Reprise)
- Corner of the Sky
- Endless Night
- If I Can’t Love Her
- Evermore
- Santa Fe
- Letter From the Refuge
- Proud of Your Boy
- One Song Glory
- Your Eyes

- Close Every Door
- Any Dream Will Do

Conclusion
That is what I can think of for now. Next list will be for the female solo songs.
From the time I was a preteen, I loved the Impossible Dream. I would get on a swing and sing it to the top of my lungs! Still love it!
