Free Music Notes for The Songs that Got Away
Free Music Review: A VERY BEAUTIFUL ALBUM
Hit: 5 Stars
This is my favourite among the albums that Sarah has released before 1997. I can highly recommend it. It's incredible beautiful.The album THE SONGS THAT GOT AWAY is from 1989, when Sarah and Andrew Lloyd Webber were married. Andrew is producer and it was his idea to record the songs. The beautiful songs are from musicals.
MEADOWLARK a beautiful song about a bird and a blind girl, who get her sight.
I AM GOING TO LIKE IT HERE+AWAY FROM YOU by Richard Rodgers. Sarah sings the songs so beautiful. Sarah has sang Richard Rodgers songs before in CAROUSEL from 1987.
I REMEMBER, a very beautiful song. Here you can hear how much Sarah's voice has improved - if you listen to songs on albums recorded after 1996, Timeless, Eden, La Luna and Classics.
MR. MONOTONY by Irving Berlin. Sarah is so talented - her voice is so warm and bright - no matter what style she sings: opera, musical or pop. Here she sings jazz/swing - and her voice is amazing.
DREAMERS, SILENT HEART, WHAT MAKES ME LOVING HIM?, wonderful.
LUD'S WEDDING by Bernstein.
THREE-CORNERED TUNE, here Sarah sings three-part with herself.
IF I EVER FALL IN LOVE AGAIN, has the sound like an Andrew Lloyd Webber-tune.
CHI IL BEL SOGNO DI DORETTA by Puccini.
IF LOVES WERE ALL, maybe the best song on this album?
HALF A MOMENT by Andrew Lloyd Webber.
Excellent album.
AWAY FROM YOU (SARAH), there is no music, there is no sunlight, the world is grey.
SARAH there is NO ONE LIKE YOU (TIMELESS).

For those Sarah Brightman fans who didn't spring for The Songs That Got Away when it was a pricey import, this domestic release will be a must-buy. Originally recorded in 1989 shortly after she achieved international fame in The Phantom of the Opera, the album spotlights obscure American and British musical theater songs that either were removed from shows or were "lost" when the shows themselves slipped out of the repertoire. (Of course, some of the songs aren't nearly as obscure as they were in 1989--the opening track, Stephen Schwartz's soaring "Meadowlark," has since been claimed by Liz Callaway, Patti LuPone, and Betty Buckley, while Stephen Sondheim's "I Remember"--well suited to Brightman's glasslike tones--is now recognized as one of his most gorgeous and haunting compositions.) Brightman performs well on this diverse collection of entertaining and often lovely songs, including an early draft of Frank Loesser's "Fugue for Tinhorns," here sung as a triple-tracked, lilting waltz, and the Puccini aria "Chi il bel sogno di doretta," which foreshadows her later, more ambitious crossover projects. There's also a tune from Jeeves by then-husband Andrew Lloyd Webber, who produced this album not long before he and Brightman divorced in 1990. --David Horiuchi
