The only one that I can imagine him singing is "Just in Time." But why combine Another Hundred People with "Take the A Train"?
Stokes is going to sing a Guettel song! *faints* Can't wait for the cd!

Sounds pretty boring to me, the only highlight I'd say is "How Glory Goes" from Floyd.
Yeah, pretty straight-forward set. And lord knows I don't need to hear him scoop his way through "Being Alive."

On the contrary, many of his choices make me very excited (especially Being Alive). I can't wait!
Can't wait for the samples to be up for this!
Great track listing. Glad he's seeing theatre songs and not Randy Newman and Billy Joel songs.

One word: Finally! This is definately something I must buy when I'm in Borders. His 'Impossible Dream' gave me chills.
I don't really care what songs are on there. This man could sing the TV guide and I would have goosebumps. He is one of my idols.

It does seem like he chose a lot of "schmaltzy" songs, but then again, he's just that kind of a performer. He's such amazing singer though that I will surely buy the album.

Mildly disappointed that he didn't include "I Was Here" from The Glorious Ones - he used to do it at concerts, and the show is finally getting its premiere.
And no This Nearly Was Mine!
Arrggggggggggggggggggh
oh well the rest will make me uber happy

Sort of standard. Happy with the songs, though.

Looking forward to this...I hope this new Playbill label gets to also release a lot of Sony/BMG goodies...
I am thrilled ("stoked?") for another recording of How Glory Goes and Grateful, two of my favorite songs.
Eh, I'm a little disappointed by his song choices (although, I am rather excited to hear him sing him "Pretty Women"). Honestly, he's one of my favorite actors/singers, and he could sing the dictionary and I'd swoon over it.
Y'all also realize the Carnegie Hall South Pacific concert is coming to CD? Such news for Stokes Folks!! HOOORAY!
