Product Details

Bette Midler has always understood the theatrical weight of a love song, bringing Broadway instincts and hard-won emotional honesty to pop material that lesser singers would flatten into sentiment. Her catalog stretches across decades of reinvention, from the bathhouses of the early '70s to arena tours and Hollywood, but the ballads have always been where she plants her flag.


Bette Midler's A GIFT OF LOVE includes 18 of her best love songs. This new collection spotlights a number of incredibly poignant tracks, like her cover of Marshall Crenshaw's My Favorite Waste Of Time from No Frills (1983); Every Road Leads Back To You from the soundtrack to her film For the Boys (1991); Shining Star from Bette (2000); plus five tracks from her platinum release Bette of Roses (1995), including It s Too Late and As Dreams Go By.
