Actors who sing. Any favorites?

I thought Catherine Zeta-Jones, Richard Gere, and Rene Zellweger were excellent doing their own singing in "Chicago."

The late, great Jerry Orbach is best known for his acting roles in Dirty Dancing and Law and Order. But he started as a Broadway song and dance man. He was in the original Fantasticks. His singing is a revelation, if you've never heard it.

I second that! Minnie Driver sings and writes songs, pretty much acoustic, and she is very good. She has 3 CDs out now.
