Editor's Notes and Comments:
Amazon.com:
Although it's based on the 1967 movie of the same name, Thoroughly Modern Millie is almost thoroughly new. Composer Jeanine Tesori (Violet) and lyricist Dick Scanlan wrote a whole batch of songs, while retaining a couple from the movie--including the Jimmy van Heusen-Sammy Cahn title tune--and recycling even older material (look for Victor Herbert's 'I'm Falling in Love with Someone' and the inventively arranged 'Nuttycracker Suite'). Miraculously, the show, set during the jazz age, doesn't feel stitched together, and Tesori does a great job cranking out swinging melodies. Sutton Foster is appropriately brassy as Millie, but she can also tone it down, as in the beginning of 'Gimme Gimme' (of course, she then proceeds to project up to the last rafters as the song builds to its climax). Harriet Harris, as nasty Mrs. Meers, steals the show with 'They Don't Know.' Close your eyes, listen to her, and you'll be back in Broadway's golden age. --Elisabeth Vincentelli

Thoroughly Modern Millie captures the essence of 1920's flappers. Each song moves you effortessly though the story of the show. As you listen The voice of Sudden Foster will convince you that she is Millie. It is a great story told through music. Even if you have yet to seen the musical live I highly reccomend purchesing this CD. It will become one of your favorite Broadway soundtrack's of all time

Sutton Foster is a gift to all of us. Watch how she commits herself to everything she does. She doesn't SING a song, she LIVES it.
She has inspired many people to sing with their full energy. Her Millie is tops.
We were thrilled to record Gimme Gimme for the new CD: Liz Seymour - That Thing Called Love. If it hadn't been for Sutton's inspiration, this recording never would have happened.
Buy everything she does - she's that good!

If you'd like a pick -me -up, this is the show to listen to. Great music, a wonderful score, and just fun to listen to. Sutton Foster is just great in the lead. (I think her very first show.) If you saw the movie, well, not so crazy, but the basics are still there. It would help a lot if you can catch a touring company or even a high school production. Then the music would make more sense. But try it, you'll like it. I'm only sorry I missed the B'way original. But I think it will be around in revival; it's such fun.

I purchased the CD knowing nothing about the show when my yearly subscription to my local theater included Millie. When it came time to see the show a few months later I knew every word to every song having listened to it continuously. The CD is that good. It has turned into my all time favorite CD as well as show. (I ended up seeing it three times!)
Sutton Foster's voice was really showcased in "Not For The Life Of Me", "Jimmy" and my favorite "Gimme Gimme". Ms. Foster has such a powerful range and it's almost like these songs were written specifically for her. You will truly be singing along. You'll not only be singing but also performing a little foot tapping of your own to go along with the pros in "The Speed Test". This song is not meant for listening to in the car for all you'll want to do is dance! The entire cast is perfectly chosen. You will just love the duet "How The Other Half Lives" with Ms. Foster and Angela Christian. Prior to even seeing the show I felt the personalities of each really showed just via this song. Marc Kurdisch in "The Speed Test" was amazing! He sang so quickly it reminded me of that fast talking guy from the commercials (FedEx??) from years ago. I could go on and on - everybody was wonderful!!
The CD booklet itself is worth the $$ as it comes with a write-up about the Broadway show as well as photos.
Buy this CD if you love Broadway in the least! Heck even if you're not a Broadway fan - you will be after this CD!!!
