Connie in Dramatic Form

This was a big album for Connie. This was Connie's first venture into the movie theme genre, and it soared in sales. While she rejected to record the song Never On Sunday as a single, missing a sure-to-be million seller, she redeemed herself with this lp. Her recording of High Noon is a stand out on this lp, and her version of Love Is A Many Splendored Thing is drama.

One of Connie's best

People who dismiss Connie Francis as a fluffy singer should take a listen to this soundtrack album. It does get samey after a while but it is a remarkable achievement. Connie's voice is at its peak and she truly takes the lyrics to heart. Her cover of "Young at Heart" is a superb example of it. Every time I hear it I just have to clap. Connie shows she has a sense of humor too with the cheesy "High Noon".
