Extraordinarily literate and thoroughly compelling, The Wicker Man has often been called the Citizen Kane of horror movies. Writer Anthony Shaffer and director Robin Hardy built their contemporary (1973) English murder mystery/thriller upon gothic Druid underpinnings and wisely gave songwriter-composer Paul Giovanni (whose first and only film score this is) the freedom to create music of a piece. The score remains one of the most unusual in the entire genre: a collection of original, well-researched folk songs and instrumental underscore that evoke a rare, eerily discomfiting sense of displaced time and place--'70s folk-pop informed by ancient forces of nature and superstition. Long a holy grail among soundtrack aficionados, this lavishly packaged and annotated release has been prepared from recently discovered master tapes with a clarity and presence that gives the late Giovanni's haunting music the gratifying showcase it's so long deserved. --Jerry McCulley

5 out of 5 stars Extraordinary soundtrack.......2007-07-24

This may be the best movie soundtrack of all time. The music conjures up images of the film, just as the film conjures up images of the music. Tracks like "Corn Rigs" are remarkable, while "Gently Johnny" and "WIllow's Song" are, for me, perhaps the most erotic songs ever penned given the context of the movie. A truly haunting film and a stunning sound-track. I should add that I generally loathe folk music, but this is something else.

5 out of 5 stars great music.......2006-09-01

This is part of the perfection of this movie. The music set the tone. I had this and lost it. Glad to see it's out and about again.

I think in one version, Corman's he changed some of the music and it lessened the impact.

4 out of 5 stars I Digs Them Corn Rigs.......2006-08-07

Pretty much what it boils down to is that if you like the music from the film, you'll like this soundtrack. I can't imagine anyone else but a fan of the film wanting to hear or buy this. The sound quality is top notch. These songs are pretty cool(though most folks tend to think they're just silly as hell. Funny how that is considering bands like Slipknot are popular nowdays), yet you definately have to be in the mood for them. I do anyway. I wouldn't recommend blasting it in the ghetto, but when the mood hits to relive naked women jumping through a fire or Britt Ekland prancing around topless while spanking herself, no other cd will do.

5 out of 5 stars Movie and music are inseparable.......2006-08-02

I recently bought the dvd and was blown away - couldn't stop thinking about it. The music haunted me, especially the opening music, I wish it was longer. Movie and music are inseparable. When I play the CD I can picture every scene in the film.

5 out of 5 stars A Great CD.......2006-06-27

Anyone who has seen the movie The Wicker Man knows how great the music is and how important it was in setting the mood of the movie. That great experience is carried over into this CD. If you enjoyed the music in the movie or like folk music this CD is a great addition to your collection. The CD is very nicely packaged, coming in a slip box case with beautiful artwork. The box holds the CD case as well as a little book that provides information about the movie and the music. It is a nice read for any fan. The CD case also contains a fold out of a movie poster on one side as well as a few smaller ones on the backside. The music is beautiful, enjoyable, and diverse. This really is a must have for any one who likes the movie and will make a beautiful addition for anyone who just likes the music.

1 out of 5 stars Nice, but the band is overrated..........2002-09-27

Now listen, I think that this is a good song. Great vocals, pretty-good riffs, pretty good lyrics. Just a great song. But there is a big problem I have wtih them. Iron Maiden sound a lot like some of those garbage hair-(so-called)metal bands that don't even riff (I mean they riff, but it's not nearly heavy enough for your average Godsmack fan). I mean, what kind of metalhead are you if you listen to that stuff? Oh well. This might convince me all the way into their music. I don't like the fact that they have, what? SIX bandmembers???? I think that you have to have very little talent to have that many bandmembers (doesn't work with Slipknot in case you could complain. All of their equipment is nesscessary making them near-perfect. ). But I like this song. From what I've heard from the album "Killers", it just doesn't sound like anything that Metallica or Slayer could whip up easily and have it well-done in about a month or so. Although this song is addictive and well-done, it is not comparable to other songs like Metallica's "One", Tool's "Parabol/Parabola", or Slayer's "Raining Blood". No;Not possible. I enjoy this band, but if you compare them to something like Tool or Slayer, Iron Maiden are nothing. It's probably becuase I'm not a huge fan of music like theirs that I think this. That's all I can say. I know that all of you are going to say that I'm unhelpful and vote me as that, but I don't care. It'll only be becuase you like this song, so what are you going to do about it??? Nothing. There is no chance that I will lose any sleep at night at the thought that you hate what I've said. But would it help a little bit if I were to remind you you that I DO enjoy this band? Maybe...

Anyway, If you were to buy "Brave New World for any reason, buy it for this song, although it mught not be worth it. I qould recommend that you get Tool's "Lateralus". It's much better.

Ok. goodbye...

OH! I was going to give this 3 stars, but it's a SINGLE FOR CRYING OUT LOAD!! WHAT GOOD IS A SINGLE WITH NOT MANY FEATURES THAT WOULD INTEREST ME????? Plus, I don't like that people think this band is so "excellent" so that made me erase another one.

1 out of 5 stars what single???.......2002-09-06

Am i the only one who realizes that the opening riff to Wickerman is basically the opening riff to Priest's "Running Wild?" (from Hell Bent for Leather, 1978) Anyone really into British metal should've picked up on this, but all i read are great reviews of Wickerman. Furthermore, maiden fans should know that the "original" Wickerman on Bruce's 2 CD set is far heavier and lyrically true to Stephen King's vision. Say what you want about the "comeback" album Brave New World, but recognize the opener for the weak song it is. And you would think that a reunion tour would feature a classic maiden opener instead of this song. Yes, i did see the show and still thought all 3 guitars were inaudible.

5 out of 5 stars The Power is Back!.......2000-06-04

The power is back!Mr. Bruce Dickinson definetely is the best frontman that Iron Maiden has ever had! The Wickerman is just amazing!The lyrics,the rhythm and Mr. Adrian Smith doing a wonderful solo are the reasons to buy this single! There is also Man on the Edge,wich sounded very good with Bruce Dickinson on the vocals.And also there is powerslave...oh,yeah...the eternal classic written by Dickinson!

I heard this song on the radio late one night, and was instantly blown away. What a great song! I've never been much of a Maiden fan, but when "Brave New World" comes out, I may have to give it a listen. Check out "Wickerman", it rules!

5 out of 5 stars Just...WOW!!.......2000-08-07

I was actually lucky enough to see them perform the 2 live songs on here, and if you didn't get as lucky, then get this CD! This is the closest you will ever get to actually being there. And then after listening to that, watch the video! It's completely awesome! But, I'm jumping too far into the CD.

Wicker Man Single Pt. 2 is the best single I've ever gotten in my life. My dad got it for me when he went to the UK. The ONLY way you can get it instead of import. I totally recommend this if you can get your hands on it. The Great Bruce is back! Along with a "3-Guitar Attack" backing his amazing vocals, Wicker Man has to be Single Of The Year! I totally recommend this.

5 out of 5 stars bruce is back pt2.......2000-05-23

Anyone looking for the review on The Wicker Man song,check out cd1 single of this title. The live tracks on this single are nothing short of stellar. They're clean and awesome with their three guitar makeover. Futureal sees the best of all live tracks between the 2 cds. Bruce is... Bruce and the guitar solos rock. Perhaps the best live version of Killers I've heard on a cd. I must also say that the video is quite good of Futureal as well. Bruce fences Eddie with the mic stand and Janick getting swatted by Eddie was for some good fun. Therefore must give this a 5 out of a possible 5. BUY THIS CD!

    Bruce Dickinson is back in Iron Maiden and what could we expect? The beast at its best. With this cd-single you will have an awesome new track from their just released new album Brave New World and two live tracks from the Blaze Bailey's era with a new and improved singer. An excellent choice if you want new stuff.

    The album itself is a highlight --- each track paints a picture of psychological intrigue as clues are absorbed within each spilling over with music --- a child has gone missing and turns up on a remote island of Summersisle, California --- what culture with unique beliefs still exist, Badalamenti's score brings out every little morsel and then some --- A must have for all "film-score-buffs", even if you've never seen the film. This CD stands on it's own two "wicker-feet" --- collection of music for missing persons is brought on by the composers unusual and unsettling themes --- as an island populated by missing girl's is surrounded by pagan rituals --- One can only hope this will open the doors of more to come within the vaults of Silva Original Film Music --- You must admit, this is a film collectors cup of tea!

      This is probably the best of the Wicker Man Singles, depending on if you like the songs Futureal and Man on the Edge. If not check somewhere else. The extra track is a nice addition as well. The Wicker Man is one of my favorite Maiden Songs full stop, with great catchy guitars, haunting vocals and an excellent pace throughout. The only reason it got four stars is that they could have put better songs than Futureal and Man On The Edge, but oh well.
