Brazil - Musica De Futebol (Brasilian Football Music) - Various Artists

Advantages: its good if your into pop music
Disadvantages: its not good if your into any other type of music

...when i heard they were bringing yet another now compilation album i was gob smacked because i think its about time they stopped bringing them out .they are ok but when they are bringing this many out its just wasteing the buyers money.this one i found fairly decent concidering i prefer rock and indie music.you do actually get value for money with this product.i think they should stop bringing these now albums out because they are just full of the same crap everytime you listen to one.If you like your pop music fair enough go and buy it but its not my cup of tea at all.they should start mixing them up with rock music and other genres.they could call it now rock and so on for the other genres....

Advantages: CONTAINS ALL SONGS FROM THE FILM
Disadvantages: WEAK BONUS TRACK

...If you enjoyed the film you'll love the CD. If you haven't seen the film and you're age 5 to 14 you'll probably still love it. It has all the main songs from the film, including both versions of You are the Music in Me by Troy & Gariella and Sharpay. The bonus track is weird but the 10 other songs justified the cost of the CD without worring about the bonus track. Very popular with all the girls at my daughters' primary school but unsure if it is as popular with older children. Despite that i have to admit that it is also very popular with their forty-two year old mother! An ideal Christmas present or stocking filler if they haven't got it already.... Read review

A few of the songs are in other languages, such as one in french, which has a very samba like quality to it. This se of a different language mixed in with the native language helps to demonstrate the cultural diversity in Brazil, and the rich education that people can get if they want to. This helps to put to shame the common preconception based on the reports of the many thousands of people in Brazil living in shanty towns. It is true that there are many people living in those squallid conditions, but this CD shows that there is another side to Brazil and that some of the aspects... Read review
