Hi everyone,

Do any of you have this songbook? I am interested in it, but I need to know if it has "Unusual Way" in the key Brian d'Arcy James sings on the CD of the same name. All the evidence leads to yes, but I was hoping someone here could confirm this for me. Thanks so much!

wow, i was just wondering the same thing. Do you recommend the Cd?

Yes, the CD is great! Any CD that has Brian d'Arcy James and Liz Callaway is alright in my book.

Anyone have any info as far as the key in the selections book?

Yeah, the CD is amazing, with two exceptions...

Betty Buckley, BE ON YOUR OWN
Eden Espinosa, IS SOMEONE OUT THERE

Both painful to listen to...

The CD is amazing, except for Thesbijean's exceptions (except I didn't mind Eden Espinosa, but she wasn't amazing).

I couldn't stand Eden on this cd. She was straining so bad at the end she was almost flat. I have to turn it before the song is over.

I sing it using that songbook copy and it sounds like the Brian d'Arcy version.
