Darren was terrific though, I saw him go on for Chad during previews

The song is actually called "So This Is Christmas," but yeah, I thought the same thing! A Christmas song by John Lennon would be much more appropriate... oh well!

Does anyone else think it's funny that the Sweeney cast is singing Deck the Halls? Just me then, okay!

I wasn't going to order it because its a two-disc (which = lots of money I don't have), but $20 isn't bad at all. Plus, the proceeds go to charity, no? I love me some Christmas music... I'll buy it. Thanks for the link!

Thanks alot broadwaystar2b! I love my "Carols For A Cure" collection. This is one of the few years I won't be able to be in NY and purchase it at the theater so I'm on my way to order it now. Love the 2 disc sets too! Xmas is in the air at broadwayworld!

I am ashamed to admit that I don't have any of the Carols for a Cure CDs.

Looks like I am going to break down and buy them all.

"Wouldn't it be funny to have the cast of Doubt do "Frosty the Snowman"? "
Omigosh YES, that would have been hysterical!!!
I'm not a very religious person, but getting the Carols for a Cure CDs has sort of become one my few holiday traditions
Just wanted to spread a little early holiday cheer

PS: I won't get mine till Nov.1 but can anyone tell me who has this year's CD tell me who sings what?

That has got to be the fastest turnaround time I've seen. Got my CD today... but I refuse to listen to it until Christmas season (day after Thanksgiving!)

So anyone who has listened to it - is the song from Chitty the same song from The Happiest Millionaire? I'm assuming it is, especially since they're both Sherman Bros.-related movies/shows.

I am definitely ordering a copy, but I can't decide whether I want to wait until closer to Christmas or not...

Yay Chicago opening the CD.


Now do the ensembles sing most of these songs? The leads? Or a mix of both? I'm confused.

i want the lyrics for the cd!
