Great Soundtrack! January 16, 2005 7 out of 7 found this review helpful
This is a fabulous soundtrack for a fantastic movie. If you don't like 1930's, 40's, and 50's big band and swing music, you shouldn't buy this. If you do, then you'll love it. The soundtrack has an all star artist track including Celine Dion, Mandy Moore, Alison Krauss, and Kelly Rowland. Even though the artist are new, the songs are done in the style of the period which gives the illusion that you're actually listening to an original recording. The most shocking is Tori Amos, who has two tracks on the soundtrack. She sounds great and looks great in the movie during her cameo appearances where she's singing the songs from the soundtrack. Buy this album, you won't be sorry.
Excellent soundtrack! January 8, 2004 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
I was actually pleasantly surprised by this soundtrack.At first glance, the unusual suspects on the this soundtrack singing these classics may turn some people off. For instance, pop artistes such as Macy Gray, Mandy Moore and Celine Dion. However, once you start listening, the magic of this recording unfolds. Most impressive was Mandy Moore's Secret Love. I'm not a great fan of teen pop but I was certainly very impressed by her rendition of this song - gentle, even and comes across as musical-esque. The rest of the soundtrack is equally amazing. Celine Dion's Bewitched was flawless and Seal's Mona Lisa had a really nice 50s jazzy tone to it. It's a pity though that some of the songs in the movie were left out in this soundtrack. Take care of you
Perfectly Charming. November 24, 2003 4 out of 5 found this review helpful
This album is perfectly charming. It features contemporary pop (if you can consider Tori Amos pop) stars singing inspired big-band era songs, and in almost every instance, pulling it off without a hitch. If you don't like Celine Dion, there's no way I can convince you, but she does better than not-make-you-want-to-vomit-with-sappiness in a very controlled version of "Bewitched" that showcases the song as much as her voice, and threatens the album's closer, Barbra Streisand. Like the movie, the album probably won't move you to tears, but you definitely won't be suffering buyer's remorse, either.
I love this cd November 25, 2003 4 out of 5 found this review helpful
The voices of the pop stars sound better than they ever have on this more substantial material. Every song is a delight to hear. Even Celine, who usually makes me wince in pain at her shrill screaming, is a delight to hear. Someone has pulled together a perfect assembly of well-directed singers who sound like they were around in the 40s and 50s. These singers could have been Rosemary Clooney's contemporaries. I love this CD - the best movie soundtrack album since "Living Out Loud"
This music LIVES in our CD player! December 16, 2003 4 out of 5 found this review helpful
AMAZING! There is not much I can say that has not been said, I buy maybe three CDs a year, and I am very finicky about what I buy. This is one to buy, believe me! It's like a breath of mountain air, it feels so needed!
