Although it's based on the 1967 movie of the same name, Thoroughly Modern Millie is almost thoroughly new. Composer Jeanine Tesori (Violet) and lyricist Dick Scanlan wrote a whole batch of songs, while retaining a couple from the movie--including the Jimmy van Heusen-Sammy Cahn title tune--and recycling even older material (look for Victor Herbert's "I'm Falling in Love with Someone" and the inventively arranged "Nuttycracker Suite"). Miraculously, the show, set during the jazz age, doesn't feel stitched together, and Tesori does a great job cranking out swinging melodies. Sutton Foster is appropriately brassy as Millie, but she can also tone it down, as in the beginning of "Gimme Gimme" (of course, she then proceeds to project up to the last rafters as the song builds to its climax). Harriet Harris, as nasty Mrs. Meers, steals the show with "They Don't Know." Close your eyes, listen to her, and you'll be back in Broadway's golden age. --Elisabeth Vincentelli

Excellent Musical, But Product Quality - Eh.......2007-07-15

I absolutely love the musical so I'm thrilled with the cd.

My problem was not with the quality of the cd, but with the plastic case. The cd cases always come cracked. Although it doesn't affect the quality of the cd itself, it's rather disheartening that Amazon charges customers for its poor shipping.

MODERNIZE your music collection!!!.......2007-07-13

This is an AMAZING musical and great album. It is sure to jazz-up any music collection! BUY THIS ALBUM NOW!

A must to add to your collection.......2007-05-18

I was very fortunate enough to see this on Broadway. It was one of the best shows I've ever seen! The music has just enough jazz and contemporary vive that any musical lover would enjoy! It's also got tapping in it! Sutton is simply awesome in this role and all of the cast can really belt out their songs. Harriet Harris is phenominal in her role as Mrs. Meers. I highly recommend this to all broadway lovers! It's one to add to your collection!

Delightful.......2006-06-12

The music takes a little bit to grow on you, but boy, does it! It's wonderful, charming, romantic, funny--just like the play itself. I loved almost every song and I was really impressed with "Long As I'm Here With You"-- I thought it was an old song written back in the twenties, because it so sounded like one. The cast is absolutely energetic and endearing, and Sutton Foster just *rocks*. Definitely worth the money.

YOU WILL LOVE IT.......2006-02-17

If you like musicals, you will NOT REGRET purchasing this musical soundtrack. JUST DO IT. It's so great, you will be listening to it forever. I also saw the show at the Kennedy Center in D.C. and it's one of the best I've ever seen. (And I've seen A LOT.)

Have Fun!

Forget What You Blow.......2006-11-18

These guys really put out a terrible disc here. There is no redeeming qualities to this at all, and I must say to anyone who, like me, loved their last CD, "Living Well is the Best Revenge," this is not for you. This is beyond selling out. It is an absolute disaster because they don't play instruments well enough to support this kind of material, and the entire performance sounds forced. The songs have no hooks except for "Give it Up," it is way overproduced, and the entire album lacks a clear definition. WHY do my favorite bands do this?? At least they could have made half an album like "Living Well" and experimented with the remaining tracks, but no. They "went for a more mature sound," like most other bands like them are now (and are rapidly going extinct.) Give it up, give it up, don't fall for the same things....About sums it up for me.

forget what you know......about midtown.......2006-03-11

once again, this is an example of a band rising to the next level due to evolving. this is the third album from the band, Midtown. i've been a fan of their music since their 2002 release "living well..." and i thought that cd was good, but not great. this cd however, is great perhaps even perfect. sure people will say this is pop/punk but it's really not. it's just a solid punk rock album, period. a few years ago it was make or break for midtown and they almost split prior to making this record. in the end, they all agreed to make a record that would break away from their pop/punk formula and they suceeded. everything about this album is more mature, smarter, better musicianship, and just better songs than their older stuff. if you're a huge fan of pop/punk and you loved their older stuff, chances are you probably won't accept this cd. it's very different but i promise if you give a chance you'll come to appreciate what a fantastic album this is. midtown is slated to release album #4 sometime this summer 06 and i think it's going to be huge. i mean REALLY huge. bottom line: hardcore midtown fans; enjoy...pop/punkers who salivated over "living well..." download or listen to some songs before you buy it.

moving onto bigger things.......2006-02-26

Ive been a midtown fan ever since and I always felt they had a lot to offer to modern punk fans. I can't say this cd is their best because theyve had a lot of classic songs already off of their other two albums, but this one definately stands out from the rest of their work. u may not like if u were looking for the same style from their earlier albums, but this shows that the band is growing and expanding their talents. a lot of energy (if not more so) and definately a lot more conviction in their lyrics. I love "Give it Up" and "Nothing Is Ever What it Seems"

Oh man.......2005-10-26

Well, Living Well is the Best Revenge was and is an awesome CD. I love it, and i have for over 3 years now. I was excited when i heard Midtown had a new CD coming out. So, it came out, i bought it, put it in my CD player. Man, i wasn't very impressed. The first actual song is way too catchy....it's a wonder it wasn't a "radio hit" for them. The CD overall was pretty mediocre. A lot of filler and just plain horrible songs. I was able to find 3 that stood out. "Empty Like the Ocean", "Nothing is Ever What it Seems", "Help Me Sleep". Those songs kick some major ass, and for that, i give the CD a 2. I'll be hesitant to buy their next CD.

The New and Improved Midtown.......2005-07-23

I became a fan of midtown a few years back. I liked some of the songs on Living Well Is the Best Revenge but that cd does'nt come close to Forget What You Know. Every song on this cd is well written and performed.

GREAT RECORDING, BUT THE PRICE..........1999-12-01

This is 20th century opera at its most vivid. Once considered a failure, Osud was resurrected in an English translation that actually improves upon the original libretto. The music is as vital as anything in Janacek: the piece starts a churning riff strangely reminiscent of Philip Glass; the ending is equally memorable -- startlingly brusque and humorous. Throughout, we get musical drama tied to the quick of spoken language; conversations overlap, or suddenly fall silent. At times the story is ridiculous, but the production rides over any problems. Philip Langridge, as always, is great. My only qualm: this was originally a single disc CD on EMI, for a single disc price. Though the package is nice, the price is steep for some 70:00 odd minutes.

Attention: BEST PUNK-POP BAND IN YEARS!!!.......2007-04-21

I have listened to just about all forms of punk, pop-punk, emo, etc. over the past five years. This band is one of the best I have heard in a long time. BUY this album PLEASE! It will make up for the letdowns of NFG, FOB, Starting line who have all changed their sound and sold out. This band has a CD that is a cross between Blink-182 and Rufio, and every song has hooks and great guitar. Trust me. Pick this one up!!!
