Boy George's musical-theater debut has been unfairly maligned. Set in the glamorously decadent London nightlife of the early 1980s, the show is unquestionably hampered by a weak book. But Boy George's original score (which is credited to his actual birth name of George O'Dowd) boasts several strong pop songs and generously spread-out tour-de-force numbers among a handful of performers. The plot follows the rise to fame of Boy George (impeccably channeled by Euan Morton) and his interaction with lovers and hangers-on, friends and foes. One of the most striking characters is Australian-born performance artist Leigh Bowery, confusingly played by Boy George and Matt Lucas, who took turns during the London run and who both appear on this cast album (George sings "Everything Taboo," for instance, but Lucas gets the striking, Cabaret-like "Ich Bin Kunst"). Confused yet? Well, that's Taboofor you. But never mind the plot: There's plenty of cool, theatrical tunes on this CD, which is more than you can say about most contemporary shows. --Elisabeth Vincentelli

Jolly Good!.......2006-06-16

Boy George may be to blame for the failure of his musical in the United States, though he would rather fault Rosie O'Donnell. Still, critics praised him for his lyrical skills here. There are catchy songs with various gay themes here. I enjoyed it though I've never seen the musical. I think musical fanatics will appreciate having this piece in their collection.

Bravo Boy George!.......2004-05-26

Don't hate me, but I saw the Broadway production five times including closing night. I'm still unclear why this tremendous production did not catch on, it was truly amazing. It's the first time that I've seen a Broadway show more than once. I received my Broadway CD today, as I ordered it the day after the show closed - I understand that it will be available in July, 2004, hopefully sooner in time for the Tonys. The soundtrack CD is absolutely brilliant, completely capturing the fire and energy of the live production. My favorites from the show are still my favorites here, especially Euan Morton's haunting Stranger In This World and his beautiful Pretty Lies; Liz McCartney's unbelievable take on Talk Amongst Yourselves; Guttersnipe (so funny and cute live); I See Through You; Raul Esparza's heartbreaking Petrified plus the opener Freak; Out Of Fashion and the finale, Come In From The Outside. My fingers are crossed that the Tony's are generous to this show and hope Rosie O'Donnell keeps her promise for a return for this show! Get a copy, you won't regret it, even if you are not a Boy George fan, his lyrics and beautiful melodies are his best ever - everything here is eons above so many Broadway shows that run for years. I guess I'll just keep wondering why mass audiences didn't get it, although the show did receive a standing ovation every performance.

holy crapper!.......2004-05-18

well first off, being a huge boy george fan... i was interested in his musical... i bought this cd... and i must admit most of the songs are written well and are catchy.... the most touching song is STRANGER IN THIS WORLD... euan morton's voice is soothing and the lyrics are sad and beautiful... and i recommend this album to all boy fans... although this is the london recording.... (as i patiently wait for the broadway score)... this album is good.... although george only sings on one song its still being rotated in my stereo.... get this album now....

A Very Pleasant Surprise.......2004-04-23

I did not see the Broadway Musical, but I am curious why it failed. I bought the cd just out of curiosity and absolutely love it. The songs are witty and the ballads are especially beautiful. I would highly recommend this cd.

No words to describe this.......2004-04-12

My review is going to be short and i'll get right to the point. Buy the soundtrack. The singers are beyond anything you've ever heard before. Euan Morton, be still my heart. His voice is mesmerizing. The song STRANGER IN THIS WORLD will leave you breathless. Just listen to it and you'll be transfixed, I know I was and am everytime.

Racking up the Points.......2001-12-29

In music, it's hard to get hits. Nevertheless, Destiny's Child gets them all the time! This CD is a great follow-up to the smash hit 'Independent Women Part 1'. It has a great beat, and it blows all other music groups out of the water.

For all you Independent Women!.......2000-12-02

Oh, my gawd it is finally here this is Part 2 of Independent Women, which everyone was wondering about. Just incase you are thinking that they just put 2 after it because its one of those crazy import things that no one understands, thing again, this is the actuall song for Independent Women Part 2.

Track Listing:

1.) Independent Women Part 2: Part 2 has nothing to do with Charlies Angels like that of part one. Part one sounded Charlies Angels, part 2 sounds Destiny's Child this version is all theres. It is nothing like that of part one except it has are favorite lyric modified a bit to "Throw them hand up at me". You will notice the beat to the song is that of the classic cartoon "Rocky & Bullwinckle".

2.) Say My Name (Timerland Remix): All us Destiny's Child fans already own this remix because it was on the maxi single for the song "SAY MY NAME".

3.) SO GOOD: This song is almost on all of there single's, I guess they feel they need to put it on them.

The cover of this CD is a Charlies Angels cover which doesn't make much sense because "Independent Women Part 2" has nothing to do with Charlies Angles. I think this is the one that come's with the Charlies Angles poster as well, I could be wrong but I purchased my single else where so it could be different. The song is great you'll love it, Be independent women you don't need men to buy you this single, you can buy it on your own.

Product Description

Brand New Woman emerged from one persons realization that its never too late to go for your dreams. Of course its an idea that applies equally to men and women, but in this case the brand new woman is Jane Drake, a singer with a solid background in the American Songbook, standards, blues and jazz. Drawing from her Southern roots in an area of the country steeped in blues music, Jane has put together a collection of tunes that are original, sensual, vibrant and imaginative. For example, listen to how she uses her voice like a musical instrument in Summertime. Her scat singing makes the changes just as a good jazz improviser would. In Black Coffee/Round Midnight she merges two unlikely tunes in a way that work together beautifully. Her versatility on the swinging Nat King Cole favorite Frim Fram Sauce displays another side of her talent. And her sensitive interpretation of the Rogers & Hart classic My Funny Valentine brings out a certain vulnerability inherent in her singing that helps make this song truly her own. Brand New Woman is Janes original composition that calls on her deep blues influence. Notice how she changes her vocal timbre and phrasing to enhance the mood of the song. Two of my favorites are Ive Got It Bad and You Go To My Head. These simple and poignant presentations, with just voice and piano, remind me of the movie Casablanca and give me a rush on every listening. Jane has comments on the liner notes about the recording technique that forced her to take certain unplanned risks, with spectacular results. In summary, Janes talent and interpretative abilities are extraordinary. Her wide vocal range, coupled with her amazing vocal control, is used liberally to deliver and enhance the essence of the lyrics. She works fluidly with the trio accompanying her, providing the perfect setting for displaying her vocal talents. This CD is not just about singing, its about one persons love for music, love for jazz, and quest for the creative experience. Jay Owen Professional arranger and composer Edison, NJ
