It think that "Who am I" and "Javert's Suicide" are both powerfully emotional from Les Mis. If you want something more humorous though "Master of the House" is my personal favorite.

"Soliloquy" from Carousel
"Being Alive" from Company

Those two jumped to mind immediately.

Hands down BRING HIM HOME from Les Miserable. (And i'm not a big Les Mis fan). If you get the right person to sing it, it should bring you to tears musically.
