Customer Rating:      Summary: Sarah Brightman Comment: This was a first time buy from Amazon for me. I totally love this music and listen to it frequently. I am not an opera lover, but the cross over music is the best easy listening music to have.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Andrew Comment: Any true fan knows that when Sarah releases and album her ex husband follows up with music he has been hording away all these years. This followed "Harem" and has the typical Andrew Lloyd Webber feel to it. It's enjoyable. Purchase.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Still Pondering Comment: Have numerous Sarah B CDs, but hesitate to purchase more. Love one, hate the others as I am not bilingual. I do enjoy some songs in other languages, but not an entire CD. Got hoodwinked twice, and can't find anything in these reviews that indicate this CD is mostly in English. I don't have speakers for this old computer, so I can't take a practice run as offered. Can anyone please advise if most of this CD is in English? The songs sound wonderful, but won't purchase until I get some add'l info.
Thanks.
Customer Rating:      Summary: stunning on full volume; ALW and SB make a great team Comment: If you love musical theater, Sarah Brightman brings it to life. Webber at his best, Brightman doing what only she can do.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Songbird Sarah! Comment: Still a winner in my CD collection - she really inspired ALW and presents his music better than anyone ever has!

The most surprising track on this collection isn't hidden between blockbusters selections from the blockbuster Lloyd Webber songbook but is located in plain view right at the beginning of the CD. The previously unreleased "Probably on Thursday" was originally written as a pop song in 1967 and indeed sounds very much like a forgotten gem by an obscure 1960s pop singer. It's absolutely delightful and the last thing you'd expect from a composer best known for neoclassical bombast. Another surprise is another previously unreleased song, this one from Sunset Boulevard: "The Perfect Year" is a sweet ballad, and Brightman smartly doesn't oversell it. In fact, the CD decidedly emphasizes the singer's more subtle side rather than her vocal pyrotechnics---"Make Up My Heart" from Starlight Express and "I Don't Know How to Love Him" from Jesus Christ Superstar are particularly nice. The cache of previously unreleased songs also includes guest apperances by the likes of Michael Ball ("Seeing Is Believing") and John Barrowman ("Too Much in Love to Care"), but there's never any doubt as to who the star of this CD is. And deservedly so. --Elisabeth Vincentelli
