Editorial Product Review: :Put together by Abba's own Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus, Mamma Mia! manages to cram over 20 of the Swedish supergroup's songs into a threadbare plot. It goes a little like this: Young Sophie is getting married and she's trying to identify which of three men is her father. That's about it. Wisely, the musical doesn't mess around with the songs, save for the insertion of some dialogue or for having some of ...

Wicked runs into the opposite problem: it has a great plot, but too often the songs just get in the way. Based on Gregory Maguire's novel of the same name, Wicked tells us what happened ...
Editorial Product Review:Album Description:Melding the contemporary and the classic in ways only he can, Michael Buble has created his most complete studio effort yet. Ranging from 'I've Got The World On a String' to 'Me and Mrs. Jones,' in addition to two new songs co-written by Michael, Call Me Irresponsible makes this album irresistible. :It's no coincidence that Michael Bublé's new album starts with just his voice and some fingersnaps on 'The Best Is Yet ...

Editorial Product Review: :Michael Bublé's assured debut and the tireless year of globe-trotting touring he spent promoting it elevated the 20-something Vancouver native into the first rank of pop crooner revivalists. His sophomore studio follow-up largely turns on the same formula that helped make his considerable vocal prowess so attractive to mainstream audiences, mixing the nigh flawless, if expected Sinatra-channeling ('I've Got You Under My Skin') with more playful and inviting renditions of pop standards like ...
