Customer Reviews of My Favorite Broadway - The Love Songs

I was there!
I had the luck to be in New York on October 2000 and managed to buy tickets to this sensational one-night-only benefit show. And it paid well! The cast was very good and this DVD shows exactly what we saw: the charm of Michael Crawford, the fun of Nathan Lane, the incredible voices of Marin Mazzie and Linda Eder (who I was seeing for the first time - and the next day I ran in to a store and bought 2 of her CDs), the incredible Robert Goulet singing Camelot tunes to Julie Andrews, Barry Manilow, Chita Rivera and many many others. I loved the show and loved the DVD. Even for those who did not see the show in person, I recomend this DVD as a very good sample of Broadway artistry, good music and charm.

Worth the dull stuff for the SPECTACULAR!
Sure The Leading Ladies Broadway was pure delight, but! what great moments there are on this DVD; Heather Headley singing "He Touched Me" was so powerful(my husband and I usually replay this song several times before going forward); then the amazing tenors are so intouch with each other and then to beak into the upbeat stuff was a treat; plus, there is the overwhelming duet of Headley and Pascal (how much would we pay for that moment?); Marin Mazzie and Linda Eder are great to hear again; Pascal's joining with the choir was also an unexpected pleasure; and then there is the awesome Nathan Lane, Robert Goulet, and Michael Crawford are part of this musical soul food; even Barry Manilow singing from his musical was completely stirring--besides, I'm glad to know that someone cares enough to still be writing musicals (could anyone have delivered this moving song any better?); and lastly, the most spectacular event was Michael Crawford with Julie Andrews as she is finally, finally heard again! Judging from the crowd's reaction in the theater, my husband and I were and are not alone in basking in the sound of her voice; it was a moment.

Perhaps I have caused you to get sick to your stomach from too much cotton candy, perhaps you may think this review is too sweet or to upholding and praising for the singers and the wonderful Amercan Orchestra, but what if? Can't we use some more beauty in this world? Wouldn't we be better off if we applauded those who seek to share the overwhelming gifts of their voices and talent? Obviously, I loved it, and if I may speak for my husband, so did he. We have watched this DVD over and over, and we have shared it with many of our friends who have been delighted in this performance. Five stars? You bet!

Best DVD I've ever purchased!
I am a big Julie Andrews fan, and this is a nice addition to any of you guys who collects julie andrews stuff. It is true that she teases the audience the whole time, and towards the end of the show, finally, she did it. It was a great moment, most especially by knowing her voice is damaged. she only sang 10 words, but it will not make the program as spectacular without it. Well worth your money, enjoy!
