I think Cheek to Cheek is going to have a lot of longevity, both in sales and in repeat listenings. I've literally listened to it at least once a day since the 18th and I'm not bored yet, not even of the Tony solo tracks. 
I know someone else brought it up, but I think Tony chose his solos very carefully. Don't Wait Too Long is on there for Gaga to listen to when he is no longer with us. He recognises, I think, that he has stopped her from giving up, and that he has had more of an impact on her life than anyone else recently. I think he knows that when he passes it's going to either drive Gaga to stay as authentic as possible and work harder than ever to make him proud, or send her into deep, deep depression.
Sophisticated Lady is meant, I think, to show that Tony understands Gaga: that he has been in very similar positions to her, and can see a lot of himself in her ('Smoking, drinking, never thinking').
Tony is so good for her. I admire him so much.  |
This is sad, but I really agree with this. "Don't Wait Too Long" was definitely meant for Gaga's ears, and I will feel so bad for her when Tony is no longer with us. He said he wants to make as many records with Gaga as possible.
Also, I bought three copies of the Starbucks C2C (forgot to have the barista scan them separately, though
), one for myself, one for my parents, and one for sale (
). I love the photos on it, but the disc itself has awful art.
Bobby needs to get in touch with some directors (I recommend Rob Marshall, the director of
Chicago (2002) and
Into the Woods coming out later this year [though it looks like Disney is going to censor the best parts of
Into the Woods 
, but I digress]) about a
Cabaret remake. I need Gaga to collect those acting awards as Sally Bowles.
I'm legitimately surprised by how well it's doing on iTunes! I hope
Partners and C2C will remain strong sellers through the holidays. I really want C2C to scan gold.
