This review is from: More Broadway's Greatest Love Songs (Audio CD)

I have to quickly disagree with those who are looking for more songs crammed in to what is such a breathtaking album of Broadway love songs. The rendition of the songs on this album and the Broadway singers selected for each piece, just are so beautifully recorded and make chills go through me. Whoever created this album, knew exactly what they were doing. This CD is full of nostalgia and artists who know how a song should be sung. They are certainly not making noise as on some Broadway CD's, but they have created an album that will go down in history for some of us who have longed to see such muscials come back to life in a way....that sadly has become a memory.

This review is from: More Broadway's Greatest Love Songs (Audio CD)

Why are there only 16 songs on this CD when the original Broadway's Greatest Love Songs had 20? They're cheating customers out of 4 songs! Also, for a sampler mix of Broadway "love" songs, this CD has very few songs that actually fit that category, at least in the traditional sense. For example, "Our Last Summer" from Mamma Mia is sung by two former lovers--now friends--reminiscing on old times. Other songs that don't quite fit: "Good Morning Starshine" from Hair, "Try To Remember" from The Fantasticks, "I Dreamed A Dream" from Les Miserables..? All of these are beautiful songs, but when there are so many traditional, lovers-declaring-their-love-type songs out there, why would you include the aforementioned numbers? Personally, I would have chosen songs such as "Elaborate Lives" from Aida, "Gimme Gimme" from Thoroughly Modern Millie, or "Still" from Titanic in replacement.
