Product Description This Broadway singing star is a high-voltage performer who dominates a stage with a galvanizing presence. Listening to her is like an all night conversation with your best friend. Amazon.com Following the example of many contemporary Broadway singers, Susan Egan (Beauty and the Beast, Triumph of Love) offers a mix of pop songs and show tunes on this solo recording. On the musical-theater side, Egan bravely unearths obscure nuggets (Jerry Herman's "Where in the World Is My Prince," Alan Menken and David Zippel's "I Can't Believe My Heart," from the movie Hercules) and gives them a soothing, laidback reading. Even her natural charm, however, can't alleviate the sugary whimsy of Marcy Heisler and Zina Goldrich's "Taylor, the Latte Boy" (incomprehensibly, a favorite on the New York cabaret circuit). On the pop side, the clear-voiced Egan offers nice adult-contemporary versions of Joni Mitchell's "Both Sides Now" and Cat Stevens's "Oh Very Young." But her warm, no-nonsense style isn't a good fit for Kate Bush's "Wuthering Heights," an outsize, demented song that requires a playful sense of drama that Egan lacks. --Elisabeth Vincentelli Review "Egan is electrifying!" -- New York Post"Egan is svelte, sexy, sensational...and boy can she belt!" -- New York Post"[Egan's] sharply focused soprano...is beguiling in the extreme." -- Variety See more
