I remember the first time I saw Emmy Rossum in a movie. Such a small girl, belting out a big song. Wide-eyed with an angelic voice she captured my heart in The Songcatcher. I followed her voice and acting talent in Phantom of the Opera and knew she would be onto bigger and better things in the future. So much talent!
So, when I heard she was coming out with her first CD, I had to hear it.
The album was released on January 29th and the collection is available right now for immediate gratification. Sentimental Journey consists of 12 songs that each represent a month of the year and span classics through the American Songbook. All were songs I have heard before, and enjoyed. It was lovely to hear Emmy Rossum's spin on each.
Here is the Sentimental Journey Track Listing:
- “Sentimental Journey” (Les Brown, Ben Homer, Arthur Green)
- “The Object Of My Affection” (Pinky Tomlin)
- “I’m Looking Over A Four Leaf Clover “(Mort Dixon, Harry M. Woods)
- “These Foolish Things (Remind Me Of You)” (Eric Maschwitz, Jack Strachey)
- “(I’ll Be With You) In Apple Blossom Time” (Albert Von Tilzer, Neville Fleeson)
- “Summer Wind” (Heinz Meier, Johnny Mercer)
- “Many Tears Ago” (Winfield Scott)
- “All I Do Is Dream Of You” (Nacio Herb Brown, Arthur Freed)
- “Nobody Knows You When You’re Down And Out” (Jimmy Cox)
- “Autumn Leaves” (Joseph Kosma, Jacques Prévert)
- “Things” (Bobby Darin)
- “Pretty Paper” (Willie Nelson)
I had a lovely time listening to the CD. It was the perfect album to listen to during "me" time or while I was relaxing in the afternoon. I recommend giving it a listen and I'm sure you'll fall in love with her voice as well. I think Sentimental Journey was my favorite, but I just love that song to begin with.
Catch Emmy Rossum on The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson on February 6th. Or connect with her on Twitter.
