Bright Lights was '05.

I liked Little Women in the theatre, but for some reason the disc doesn't work as well for me.

I thought the show was INCREDIBLY boring. But I fell in love with the CD.

Don't you think Foster sounds a bit strained on disc?

Not at all. Maybe one point in time, but I don't really have a problem with that. The ACTUAL problem I have is her "h"s before every single "voweled" word. THAT got on my nerves.
