And this is the surge and the rush she said would show
Our story goes on"

Diana suffers from a bipolar disorder, which causes her to sometimes see her dead child, Gabe. In her vision, Gabe is determined to remain in her life.

And I feed on the fear that's behind your eyes
And I need you to need me, it's no surprise
I'm alive, so alive
I'm alive."
4. Jenny Rebecca

Answer: To Whom It May Concern

Long before it was included in the score of the off-Broadway musical, this song became popular when recorded by Barbra Streisand. In the musical, a new mother cradles her child as she sings.

Jenny Rebecca, four days old,
what a lucky, lucky, lucky, lucky, girl you are."

Keep the house and sweep the parlor,
Cook the meals and look exhausted."

Believe me, bad as I've been, Ma
You're in for a pleasant surprise"

Answer: Miss Saigon

Kim struggles to survive in a war-torn country with the son of an American soldier. In desperation she tries to make a better life for him.

You,
Why should you learn of war or pain?
To be sure you're not hurt again,
I swear I'd give my life for you."
8. Mama Says - You Can't Back Down

Answer: Footloose

Ren finds it hard to believe that dancing could be banned. He's ready to talk to the town council, but nervous. Willard provides advice from his mother.

Now, anytime I'm turned around
I turn to Mama first"

Could barely walk and talk so much as dance and sing
But let me hit that stage, I wanna take my bow
'Cause mama, I'm a big girl now"
