My friend Matt sent me an email alerting me to the news that John Barrowman has a CD out called
John Barrowman Swings Cole Porter. Sounds delightful.
Unlike most people, it wasn't until
Torchwood season two that I really fell for Barrowman. I didn't hate him beforehand, I just thought his character was kind of sleazy. But after the Proust thing and how sweet he was to Ianto, I was sold.
Listening to the CD sample bits on Amazon, he has a decent voice. I imagined his voice was rougher and lower than it is here. To be honest, I'm not much for Cole Porter, or musicals in general these days, but I like Barrowman so much.
So, you know, as the Monty Python boys say "nudge, nudge, wink, wink."
