Rodin used to say of Camille, "I showed her where to find the gold, but the gold she found was truly her own." The song Gold is the eleven o'clock number in the show, and the song has taken on a life of its own. It was first released as the title track of Linda Eder's 2002 album, and she has performed it often in concert. The song received its international debut at the Opening Ceremonies of the 2002 Winter Olympics. Linda then released a new recording of the song on her 2003 album, "Broadway, My Way."

The album "Gold" is available at Amazon and iTunes. A songbook for the album "Gold" is also available from Amazon.

The album "Broadway, My Way" is available at Amazon and iTunes. A songbook for "Broadway, My Way" is also available from Amazon.
