Marc Anthony - The Concert from Madison Square Garden

The DVD "Extras" include the video of "When I Dream at Night".

My standout moments in this performance is when he sings "My Baby You" a song which he dedicated to his daughter Arianna who was in the audience. A very touching song. I also enjoyed the special surprise guest...Read more
