Indeed, lea salonga has a nice voice. Proof would be her clear crystal voice in various recordings. Her weakness: her acting. Being objective, listen to her on other CDs like this one, Flower Drum, her manila concert, it all sounds the same. and it gets to be boring as you listen to her over and over again. she cannot seem to offer something new. It is like miss saigon over and over again.in this cd, she pulls the same tricks. no variety. all songs sound the same, there is no progression. and, the choice of songs are bad as well, she cannot do anything interesting with the material. Please offer something new. and btw, she sounds like liz callaway...
