1. Nowhere/Yeah, we're going nowhere fast/Maybe this time, I'll be yours, you'll be mine.
2. Lately I feel so small/Or maybe it's just that my bed has grown/I never noticed it before/But you were there,/So how was I supposed to know?
3. If you don't mind/I will start again alone./If you don't mind,/I'll move myself along.
4. Lately I been wastin' this hard, hard life/Seems like nothin' ever turns out right/The day's too short, the nights too long/Meet you in the middle if it turns out wrong

8. I Just Can't Wait To Be King, from the Lion King. There's a kid unclear on the concept of inheritance.
10. You're Nothing Without Me, City of Angels! Pretty much the only good song in that musical, IMO.
11. Jesus Christ Superstar, the song is... I think it's Superstar? Judas sings it.
14. Beauty and the Beast, from the musical of the same name. Prettiest song in the world.
16. For the Longest Time, Billy Joel. I have an acapella version if you want it.
17. Don't Rain on My Parade. No idea where it's originally from, but Glee and John Barrowman have both covered it.
18. Music of the Night, Phantom of the Opera.
19. WELCOME TO THE SIXTIES. Hairspray. Fabulous song.
20. Turning, Les Miserables. Funny thing, I can't say the full title, I can only say "Les Miz," but it physically hurt to type that. I have to type the whole title. Who knew?
21. Enough to Go By, Vienna Teng. I think we have a lot of the same music...
23. Someone Like You, Adele.
24. All I've Ever Wanted, from Prince of Egypt. Funny thing, I think Val Kilmer actually sang it.
27. On The Street Where You Live, My Fair Lady. AKA FREDDIE YOU ARE A STALKER.
28. Aida, but I can't remember the damn song title. Written in the Stars? Written in Our Fate? Something like that.
29. Hey, Terrance Man! Um, it's from The Scarlet Pimpernel. Not Falcon in the Dive. Madame Guillotine. I think.

I already have an a capella For the Longest Time, but thanks for offering.
Don't Rain on My Parade is I believe from Funny Girl? IDK, the version I have is a Linda Eder cover.
...weird, I always typed the abbreviation as 'Les Mis.' But, yeah.
I think there's actually a dubbed singer for Val Kilmer, but Ralph Fiennes did his own singing for Prince of Egypt.
It's Written in the Stars
Terrence Mann doesn't actually sing on this song! But he is in the show, obvs, and you got the title right.
