Dirty Dancing Original Soundtrack

Advantages: Brings back all the best bits of the film.
Disadvantages: None that I know.

WOW! I love the film, and this soundtrack is absolutely amazing as well. Throughout the soundtrack I just want to get up and dance - and sometimes I do... LOL. It's the whole standing in front of a mirror with the hairbrush CD. If you're a big fan of the film like me, then this is the perfect CD as you know all of the words off by heart without even realising it! Everyone loves Patrick Swayze, and he sings track 3 (She's Like The Wind). It gives ...

Soundtrack of fast & furious

Advantages: Very addittive.
Disadvantages: It is not easy listening music.

Did you enjoy the movie fast and furious? If it was it is also due to the effective soundtrack, that creates the right atmosphere for a such a speedy movie. This soundtrack reached seven on the billboard 200 and number one on the top soundtrack. The billboard is a ranking of the 200 highest selling music album and extended playing in the USA. Billboard is also a well know magazine, so to be on the billboard 200 means that the album has been appreciated ...

Grease is THE word!

Advantages: Fun!
Disadvantages: None!

If you've seen the movie, and love the music in it, pick up this single disc reissue of the original classic 2-LP album. I have the original record album and played it quite frequently. It's good to hnag on to, but in the past year I bought this single disc and don't have to worry about this getting worn out. All the original songs from the film are here. The songs are done in the style a typical '50s rock'n'roll song or ballad. The title track ...

Santa Baby...

Advantages: Songs performed by people from Ally McBeal cast
Disadvantages: Songs performed by Vonda Shepherd

...or my continuing addiction with Ally McBeal and the fact that it's Christmas with them at the moment... Inspired by some of the songs that were performed in the third season of Ally, I decided to buy their Christmas CD "A very Ally Christmas". I got it from play.com for 5.99 with free delivery. That's the best offer I could find on the internet, but I'm happy to get advice where to look next time... ;-) The CD was just delivered today and has since ...
...roommate Renee in the series Ally McBeal. Those of you, who have seen a few episodes will know that she isn't very reluctant to perform the one or other song on stage. So therefore my expectations were fairly high, and I'm sorry to say that they weren't quite met. Her voice sounds rather squeaky and this song surely doesn't show her full potential. *I SAW MOMMY KISSING SANTA CLAUS* Oh such a good song. Elaine / Jane Krakowski at her best - telling ...

A great recording of a great show

Advantages: Great musical; very strong cast
Disadvantages: Not the full recording; some weak voices

As a show Les Misérables is flawless. It has a captivating story that keeps you hooked which is displayed in a wonderful musical. One problem often associated with musicals is the lack of originality, shows, too often, consist of two or three individual numbers with the rest of the musical being filled with reprises or slight variations. Although there are songs like this in Les Miserables it doesn't seem so bad because the variation really is different! ...
...is the same, however, because of the different moods in both of the pieces they seem different. In other occurences where the tune is re-used, enough decoration is added to the songs to make them seem original. As for this specific recording; the cast is mainly very strong. The role of Valjean is portrayed by Colm Wilkinson, the person who 'created' the role. His antagonist, Javert is also portrayed very well as Roger Allam's voice is superbly suited ...
