Title: Oh, the potential!
Product review: Based on the lyrics and the melodies, this album had such a potential for greatness. Unfortunately, this potential was only partially fufilled. I knew full well when I bought it that it was not the original cast recording, or even close to it. I was disappointed, however, to find just how bad some of the matchups between artist and song could be. Take as an example, "Amneris's Letter". I love Shania Twain as a singer, and I love the song itself. Together, however, I wince whenever I hear it. Her voice was simply NOT meant to go that high. There were some high points on the album, such as Sting's "Another Pyramid" and the haunting trio "A Step too Far", but there were also low points. I have a feeling that the original cast recording, when it comes out, will be better than this is.
