SUGGESTED QUOTE: "This cruise is about connection through music, through stories and through unforgettable moments that we'll share in a truly beautiful place," says Foster. "There's a story behind every lyric, every melody," he adds, "and this is a way Katharine, Michael, Peter, Pia, Take 6,
Babyface and I can share them with the people who've carried these songs in their hearts for years."
