As far as I know "You don't have to say" is not from JCS - I think you think of "Gethsemane - I only want to say" maybe? "From a distance" is Bette Midler. Beautiful song, but like Memories from Cats sung to death. Honestly? I really love John and of course I'm going to buy it, but I was a tad disappointed with "Another Side" - not essentially with the choice of songs but the arrangements were mostly so... easy-listening? I think he deserves better. Hopefully this *will* be better. But... John! "Uptown Girl"??? That's either going to be exceptionally good or a complete fail... *lol* Well, we'll see. At least there *are* CD releases! *patiently waits for the Christian Kane album and glares in direction Columbia Records*
