Here (Idina Menzel Album)
''Here'' is the second album from American singer-actress Idina Menzel. Unable to find acting gigs, Menzel began recording the album in 1999, but was dropped by Hollywood Records after her previous album '' Still I Can't Be Still'' didn't sell a lot. In 2004, Menzel self-released ''Here'', despite it being incomplete.
