The "Stand Up" songbook collection album matches the selections and sequence in his new songbook of the same name: "Stand Up! Songs by Michael Stern". Here's what people are saying about the songs:

"Stand Up" is the only song I know that brings a crowd to its feet in the middle of a concert. Michael writes songs like that: songs that move people, lift them up and energise them to stand up for what's right." - Charlie King, singer/songwriter

". . . anthems for an America as it should be - a reminder that peace and justice should be our highest moral values." - David Horsey, two-time Pulitzer Prize-winning editorial cartoonist and columnist

"The power of Michael's song "Stand Up" to move people is incredible. The first time the Brooklyn Women's Chorus performed it, the audience members spontaneously began standing up. It was electrifying and stunning to those of us singing it. By the end of the song, everyone in the audience was on their feet. This continues to happen wherever we sing it." - Bev Grant, founder and director of the Brooklyn Women's Chorus.

". . . tender and powerful lyrics ..., subjects that matter ..., warm voice, beautiful poetry and rich arrangements draw us into the heart of compassion..." - Maureen Jackson, Victory Music Review
