Editorial Product Review: :No Description AvailableNo Track Information AvailableMedia Type: CDArtist: GROBAN,JOSHTitle: JOSH GROBANStreet Release Date: 11/20/2001DomesticGenre: ROCK/POP :There are worse things in life than making your acting debut on the much ballyhooed season finale of Ally McBeal, though teen operatic baritone Josh Groban doesn't seem destined to encounter them anytime soon. As the awkward high school student-client who asks the typically romance-jinxed Ally to his senior prom, Groban performed this debut album's 'You're Still You' (adapted from film-composing legend Ennio Morricone's Academy Award-nominated score for Malèna, with lyrics by Linda Thompson) as a ...
Editorial Product Review: :One of the more successful attempts by another studio (here Fox) to make a quality animated film on par with Disney was Anastasia. The music by David Newman and songs by Lynn Ahrens and Stephen Flaherty (the Broadway team that won a Tony for Ragtime) give the movie a sturdy backbone. From the Zhivago-gone-Broadway opening number 'A Rumor in St. Petersburg' to the Oscar-nominated get-up-and-sing 'Journey to the Past,' the CD is filled with bright numbers, including low-key pop versions of several of the songs. The vocal talent is exceptional, especially Liz ...
Editorial Product Review: :It's telling that Richard Marx broke into the music business singing backup vocals for Lionel Richie and writing songs with Kenny Rogers and Chicago, for he kept to the straightforward, middle-of-the-road approach of those acts once he became a recording artist in his own right--not that there's anything wrong with that. A dependable hitmaker throughout the late '80s and early '90s, Marx scored with rockers ('Don't Mean Nothing,' 'Should've Known Better'), and ballads ('Right Here Waiting,' 'Endless Summer Nights') alike. Greatest Hits collects those songs as well as the lion's share of ...

Editorial Product Review: :There's no arguing with the power of Sissel's voice. The Norwegian soprano brought James Horner's Titanic to life and blew people away at the Lillehammer Olympics' opening ceremony. Positioned as a classical crossover performer, Sissel's talent and versatility gets her into trouble. The 12-song My Heart bounces back and forth from Andrew Lloyd Webber to Franz Schubert, from Astor Piazolla to Ennio Morricone. These different composers are reconciled into one album by her talent. She's less successful with a so-so version 'Ave Maria,' but does better with Puccini's tear-jerker aria 'O Mio ...

Editorial Product Review: :The platinum-selling Richard Marx was a radio staple in the late '80s and early '90s; he's continued to keep his hand in as a songwriter for the likes of 'N Sync ('This I Promise You'). Days in Avalon, his first album since 1997, isn't likely to change anyone's mind about Marx. But anyone who has enjoyed him in the past will appreciate this disc, whose only real surprise is the closing duet with Alison Krauss, 'Straight from My Heart.' Elsewhere, Marx indulges his passion for melodramatic storytelling (remember 'Hazard'?) on 'Boy Next ...
