It was just yesterday that I went to see Thoroughly Modern Millie at theShaftesbury Theatre in London. I loved it to pieces and I'm alreadybooking tickets to see it again! The album was given to me by a friend andI love it! The songs are fun and you can just imagine being center stageas Amanda Holden plays Millie! I reccomend this album to everyone! It'sabsoultly amazing and trust me one listen to it and you're hooked! I can'tstop singing NOT FOR THE LIFE OF ME! It's beautiful and deserves everyGrammey there has ever been!

From the film, they ditched the entire score except the title song which is a pity in some ways. But the new songs are almost all show-stoppers, especially my favourite "Long as I'm here with you". If you like Broadway musicals, if you like jazz, this CD is simply great. I've seen it on Broadway. I couldn't wait to order the CD. When you here the overture you realise the writers knew they had a stunning score, it does not rely on the title track, unlike the film.

I had the good luck to see "Thoroughly Modern Millie" on Broadway a couple of months ago, and I was looking forward to the Original Boadway Cast recording to come out on CD.
The musical is the remake of a movie, but it includes original music and songs. As the story is set in the 1920s, jazz and ragtime are the leading moods of this musical. All the new songs are delightful (especially "Only in New York"), and the new versions are extremely well delivered ("Jimmy" is the best example). Also, what I really liked about this musical, are the ironic tones, as the couple of Chinese good-hearted crooks, and the love story between Miss Dorothy and Mr Graydon. "Ah! Sweet Mystery of Life" is the best example!

What can I say? A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!
I ordered this item and it arrived less than two days later, so I was incredibly impressed with the speed of service... I love the Thoroughly Modern Millie musical, but have never heard all the songs before and was left bowled over by each one :D The booklet that comes with the CD is very helpful, providing cast lists, plot synopsis, lyrics for all the songs and a variety of glossy colourful pictures from the original show, which was great to read. The music itself was wonderful, very original and very 1920s swing and jazz, so hats off to the composer/lyricist! Personal faves for me were 'Gimme Gimme', 'Jimmy' and 'Final Bows', although all the tracks were superb.
If you're a musicals fan this is a must buy :D

As musicals go, Thoroughly Modern Millie isnt the best. The film is great, on stage its slightly less captivating. However its still ver enjoyable!
This is the show that made a Broadway Star out of Sutton Foster, and its totally understandable as to why. Vocally she is fantastic in this album and makes the whole thing a joy to listen to.
If you love the show you will not be dissappointed by this recording!
