| Editorial Reviews:
Amazon.com Lea Salonga, best known as the voice of Jasmine in Aladdin, steals the show here as the title character in Disney's Mulan. The former star of Miss Saigon adds touching elements to the feature, especially on introspective numbers such as "Reflection." Unfortunately, the voice of Donny Osmond, relegated to anthems such as "I'll Make a Man Out of You" doesn't really enhance the story line, a saga set in ancient China. Jerry Goldsmith provides the Far East tinge to the score, almost reminiscent of early Les Baxter. While Mulan is a far cry from the memorable Beauty and the Beast, it is both funny and charming. --Jason Verlinde

Wonderful soundtrack! November 2, 2003 22 out of 25 found this review helpful
I loooooovvvvvvveeee this album! The story is great, the songs songs are well-written, the orchestration brilliant, and Lea Salonga's voice simply mesmerizing. I hope Disney produces more albums like this.
5 Stars for Lea Salonga's voice November 4, 2002 21 out of 25 found this review helpful
My favourite song is "Reflection" by Lea Salonga, interestingly enough not appeared obviously in the Audio CD list. May be Disney wants to sell out "Chritina Aguilera". But it's useless to include her into this album.
Good soundtrack! April 3, 2003 21 out of 25 found this review helpful
Beautiful music and songs for a beautiful story. The best number is Lea Salonga's "Reflection" and the worst, ironically, is also "Reflection" (destroyed to pieces by Christina Aguilera!)
Great! August 3, 2003 21 out of 24 found this review helpful
I love this soundtrack! It's a good accompaniment to an excellent film. The score and all the songs (except for the inappropriate and poorly-sung pop version of "Relection") are great. There should be more movies with soundtracks like this. A must-buy for amazon.com customers!
Great CD except for one thing November 11, 2003 21 out of 25 found this review helpful
This is a great soundtrack to accompany a very good movie. The music is great (I love the Mulan Suite in particular in the instrumental part) and Donny Osmond and Lea Salonga's voices are excellent. I would give it five stars if not for the last track (Christina Aguilera's version of Reflection, which really annoys me). Next time, Disney should stick to REAL singers when doing another version, or better yet, stop doing these "pop" versions altogether: they just ruin the magical, animated experience. There was certainly NO NEED to match the original Reflection song with a 'bastardized' version. Disney was probably imagining Mulan taking off her clothes (ala-Christina Aguilera) as she was reflecting on the bad thing that just happened to her. (Can you imagine Mulan singing the song in the movie the way Christina did?) Thank goodness Peabo Bryson and Regina Belle did a decent job with "A Whole New World" in Aladdin!
