Lose Yourself in the Beautiful & Haunting Broadway Cast Recording of The Last Ship
The cast recording for Sting’s debut musical The Last Ship is now available through Universal Music Classics, and listening is as beautiful and haunting an experience as seeing the show. Below, we react in GIF as we set sail and listen through The Last Ship.
1. Island of Souls (Collin Kelly-Sordelet , Dawn Cantwell & Company)
It has a real nautical feel to it. Lots of exposition in this track but it’s pretty.
2. All this Time (Michael Esper & Company)
That was a bad-ass number Michael Esper.
3. August Winds (Rachel Tucker and Dawn Cantwell)
Gorgeous.
4. Shipyard (Jimmy Nail, Sally Ann Triplett & Company)
5. If You Ever See Me Talking to a Sailor (Rachel Tucker & the Women)
Bless you, Rachel Tucker. This track is a must for everyone’s iTunes library.
6. Dead Man's Boots (Michael Esper, Collin Kelly-Sordelet & Jamie Jackson)
7. The Last Ship [Part One] (Fred Applegate)
Great title song.
8. Sail Away (Sally Ann Triplett)
9. The Last Ship [Part Two] (Jimmy Nail, Fred Applegate & Company)
10. What Say You, Meg? (Aaron Lazar)
Aaron Lazar is a treasure. This song is everything.
11. We've Got Now't Else (Jimmy Nail, Colin Kelly-Sordelet & Company)
This one you need to download for singing in the shower, driving, cleaning or like a drunk Broadway karaoke. Who knows?
12. When We Dance (Michael Esper, Rachel Tucker & Aaron Lazar)
#Everything #AllTheEmotions #ListeningOnRepeat

This album has totally hit its sweet spot. The last four tracks have been one better than the last.

15. Show Some Respect (Sally Ann Triplett & Company)
And there’s the Best Score nomination.
