Album Description
Linda returns to her Broadway roots on this release. The 12 tracks span roughly the last 50 years in cinema, from Mancini's "Charade," the title tune of the 1963 movie starring Cary Grant and Audrey Hepburn, to "Falling Slowly," the Academy Award winner from Once, the 2007 Irish musical film. The originals may be familiar and beloved, but Eder and her band dramatically reworked the arrangements, rendering the songs in an intimate, fireside style. Other highlights include an aching version of Yvonne Elliman's 1977 disco hit "If I Can't Have You," from Saturday Night Fever and a faithful rendition of "Valley of the Dolls," the theme of the 1968 flick that Dionne Warwick turned into a No. 2 pop hit.
Album Description
2009 release from the Pop vocalist. Soundtrack finds Linda Eder musically 'going to the movies' with a carefully selected set of songs from films that span five decades. The originals may be familiar and beloved, but Eder and her band reworked them, rendering the songs in an intimate, fireside style. ''We did most of the music in a jazzy pop version . . . we wanted to find arrangements that were a little different and worked for my voice.'' Linda is one of America's premier singers of Pop standards and Broadway tunes, so the former Star Search winner and star of the long running hit musical Jekyll And Hyde is perfectly suited to tackle these well known movie songs and make them her own.

 I like you, Linda. But, this CD shows no improvement. November 19, 2009
Piboon Jangsawang (Bangkok Thailand)
The song selections are not so impressive. The way she sings is too. Nothing new in her singing styles, or in her emotions ... or interpretations, etc. Well, sorry if I sound too judgmental -- her liner notes or song stories (written by herself on the CD jacket) make me feel that she is just too much of herself: I, I, me, me, my, my, blah ... blah ... blah.
How can your audience/fans relate to you when you are too much of yourself, Linda? Reduce the ego state and you'll understand yourself and your fans and ... hopefully, the songs even better.
 Hate It! November 17, 2009
Grammar Police (Ohio)
I love Linda Eder and I have all her tracks and all her songbooks, but since she split with her husband... forget it. I hate the country style and I hate her song choices. What I loved about her was her big voice and now you can't even tell she can sing. Save your money. Don't buy it.

If you love her voice you will really enjoy her selection of songs on this CD.
BEST CD BY LINDA EDER November 13, 2009
Roberta Turel (Pennsylvania, United States)
This is probably the best CD ever recorded by Linda Eder. It is an interesting collection of a Beatles song (Help!), movie classics (Valley of the Dolls and Charade), and other songs such as I Will Wait For You and Can't Help Falling in Love and Everybody's Talking. This is a must for any Linda Eder fan and any other person who likes good music!
Linda Eder never flops November 13, 2009
Clifford J Lewis
Linda Eder always matches her vocal talent with the musical content
I think I have all her cds and videos. I once attended a vocal session
at the University of Alabama. The New york voice coach used her video
performance of Man of LaMancha as a demonstration of a dominant performance. So it is.
