...contributions may be, they are mostly window dressing; Midler's terrific vocal on "Strike It While It's Hot" notwithstanding, nothing here really needs the star wattage to justify it. Hicks has written a batch of tunes as strong as any he's ever recorded; along with the Midler duet highlights include "My Cello," "I Don't Want Love" and the revved-up "Meet Me on the Corner," in which Hicks and Costello volley the lyrics fast and furiously. Always fond of revisiting his back catalog, Hicks reprises his classic "I Scare Myself," and in the process reminds...
...song was written by Pat Harris, an unsigned recording artist who goes by the name "Pat. [Patperiod]." Harris, fortuitously enough, is also a researcher on CBS's still-ticking Sunday-night newsmagazine. After overhearing Wallace singing around the office one day, he hatched the idea of their doing a duet. In the tradition of My Way, the song features lyrics only a true softie like Wallace could carry off: "Imagination--/What a sensation!/For yours, I give you a standin' ovation."

...strength of the production undoubtedly also lies in its supporting cast. Sarah Eno '03 and Ashley McCants '02 deserve special praise for their resounding performances as Valentin's love Marta and Molina's mother. Their duet in "Dear One" is especially unforgettable. Brian Gatten too demands an awesome presence on stage as the Warden. Kudos also to Scott Rowen '02 and Adam Robbins '00 for strong performances...
...British--it's still difficult to believe this mid-career blossoming, as she calls it, just happened. The songs sell her out. Stories opens with the glorious Big Exit, which peaks around the chorus, "Baby baby, ain't it true/ I'm immortal when I'm with you." A duet with Radiohead's Thom Yorke asks, "Do you remember the first kiss?" and is one of this year's most captivating love songs. Want more proof? Her previous album was titled Is This Desire?; Stories has a track called This Is Love. Good...
