Hey you guys. I didn't see anything about this posted on this boards (although it's very possible that I didn't look hard enough).
Shoshana Bean's new single has been released on iTunes! The single is called 'Superhero' and I personally think it sounds amazing. I am a huge supporter of Shoshana but I have to say I was worried about her getting her music to a main stream audience, but I think this single is just the one to do it. I am very much looking forward to the album!
You guys can go to the link below to hear the single. Let me know what you think!
Wow, she really is trying to get away from the sound that most Broadway performers have when they release solo CDs. Good for her--sounds good and I could see this, realistically, being played on the radio. Thanks for sharing.

It's underwhelming to me but I'm still interested to hear the rest of the CD.
As for specifics (I listened to it like 2 hours ago a couple times over and over just to decide how I felt)...umm I didn't like the rhythm in part of the chorus, and even though I listened to it more than once I don't really remember anything about it except that it was "meh."
But like I said I'm still interested to hear the rest of her album.
I actually didn't like Shoshana in Wicked, at all. Her riffing bothered me, but I knew her voice would be good for R&B. However, her solo stuff is bad ass. I actually, really like it. I'm also glad she is re-recording Press On and releasing it on her CD, I too, hope Sho is a huge success.
I was wondering, the record company listed on iTunes that released her single was Shotime Records--did she start her own company? Or what's the deal with that, I've never heard of it, and I Google'd it and didn't find anything.
