  • The entire scene where Christian sings "Your Song" to Satine. To preface this, Satine thinks this is the Duke, and she has to please him. She thinks it's business as usual. At first, it starts out as a comical exchange between her and an ordinary man she mistakes for her client. But then, comes the part where he sings for her, and it leaves her stunned silent. What follows is her listening to the song in awe and wonderment. By the end, she voices how won over she is by such romance, how awed she is that some "Duke" could instantly have such love and adoration for her.
  • The final rendition of "Come What May", particularly the moment when Christian, after a long pause, sings back - confirmation that he's regained his belief in his and Satine's love. The crescendo of "Come what may"s that follows only drives it home.
    • When Satine breaks out of song to simply say: 'I love you. Till the end...of...time' to Christian. The fact that neither of them even care about the showing and are just loving one another, not acting, right there on stage is also pretty cool.
  • "Elephant Love Medley," from beginning to end.
    Christian: Love lifts up where we belong... where eagles fly, on a mountain high!
    Satine: Love makes us act like we are fools; throw our lives away, for one happy day!
    Christian: We can be heroes! Just for one day...
