Advantages: Very dramatic, emotional music
Disadvantages: Not everyones cup of tea

...school did a production of Les Miserables last year, i fell in love with the music, the pieces are all very dramatic and emotional and the storyline is very romantic which for me is perfect, i love the fact that the music is so sensual but it is definitely classical music with a full orchestra and very depressing (set in the time of the French revolution, death is a common theme although good triumphs in the end). You will enjoy this music if you ... Read review

Advantages: Its a fun and exciting cd, with some great performances and toe tapping hits.
Disadvantages: Some of the songs are missing

...soundtrack for the 1986 film Little Shop Of Horrors. Ellen Green as the character of Audrey really conveys the emtion that is needed for the part, and this relates well on the soundtrack. The soundtrack captures the fun and excitment of the show, with some outstanding performances from Rick Moranis and Steve Marting as the Dentist. Levi Stubbs as the plant also is fantastic and you get to hear a little more of him on the soundtrack than in the film. ... Read review

Advantages: Totally original and fitting with the movie.
Disadvantages: Annoying track at the end.

...Little Sister" the theme to Lost Boys is one of my all time favourite songs, and as i got into the film i used to bug my family by playing this over and over. I still listen to it all the time, having several different versions of it on my ipod. But the original is best, and as i think you will agree with me after hearing it, it is best played really loud, even though years ago, my mum definitley not agree with me!! "Power Play" was another one ...
...got the album but now i really love it. To me it has a bit of a country feel to it, even though i have yet to find someone that agrees with me!! "I Still Believe" was always my favourite, and still tops the list of songs i would love to hear being performed live. The sax accompainment is superb and one of the reasons i always wanted to learn to play. I actually ended up learning guitar though, but if i did ever learn, this would be the first thing ...

Advantages: voices, songs
Disadvantages: some repeat of songs with different versions

...be traced with the songs. Moulin Rouge follows the fateful love story between Satine a glamourous performer at the moulin rouge and a poor writer. The elegant Satine is to be set up by her employer to a rich duke but falls instead for the penniless writer who is writing a play for the moulin rouge. Some of the tracks centre around the moulin rouge and are performed there while others surround the love of Nicole and Ewan's characters. I think the ...
...versions of other songs but live up and sometime succeed the originals. My favourite songs are as follows: - Come what May- This is sung by Nicole and Ewan and is beautifully performed. - Elephant Love Medley- The writer is trying to persuade Satine that love songs and love itself are real but Satine states 'You would have thought that people would have had enough of silly love songs' but the write retorts ' i look around me and I see it isnt ...

Advantages: Keep Holding On - Now my family's anthem
Disadvantages: Zero variety and zilch passion. The one repetative theme isn't even good.

...all-over-the-place opinion of the movie Eragon (See my reveiw of the actual film, entitled Who the balls is Angela...? http://dvd.ciao.co.uk/EragonDVDReview5784477), I managed to come to a conclusion about the soundtrack pretty quickly. The verdict, I have to say, though more consistent than my opinion of the film is decidedly worse. You may ask, after watching the film and concluding that the music was nothing out of the ordinary, why go to ...
...and unintrusive, the soundtrack to Eragon is barely worth composing and completely unmemorable. The wide and varied LOTR Soundtrack it certainly isn't. In listening to it you find yourself wondering two things: a.) Did Patrick Doyle only come up with one half-decent theme and then consider his job done? and b.) Did I accidentally put my media player on repeat? What I am alluding to here is the fact that the tune of the (completely uninspiring) ... Read review
