5 out of 5 stars Not Something to Sleep To.......2007-05-04

if you had enjoyed this movie, with the dialoge streaming throughout the trippy music of his dreams, you would love this soundtrack. its beautiful and strange. i love it.

1 out of 5 stars Love the score and soundtrack but CD is incomplete.......2007-03-09

I bought this primarily for the Jean-Michel Bernard music. I was disappointed because the disc doesn't include alternate versions sans voice-overs. Many of these tracks have the actors' voices over the music. Wouldn't be such a problem for me as bonus tracks perhaps. Or have music sans voice-overs as bounus tracks. Either way there's room enough as the disc clocks in at just under 49 minutes. Would be cool too if they included the film mixes of the Willowz tracks. Their "Ulcer Soul" song sounded psychedelic while fading in, out, and under the other audio in the film. I rated the disc one star but better to rate it 4 as it does have pretty much what was in the actual soundtrack, including the lovely "Coutances."

5 out of 5 stars A better soundtrack than Eternal Sunshine!.......2007-01-10

I absolutely loved the music in Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless mind and thought that there couldn't be a more fitting original score......until i saw The Science fo Sleep. I bought this album just days after seeing Michel Gondry's latest film because I immediately fell in love with the music. The original score to the film exactly reflects the atmosphere of a dream state, as do the songs with rathe rnonsensically sweet lyrics and a drowsy tone. I am a huge fan of film and perhaps moreso the music featured in them, and this montauge of imagination is really my cup of tea. I really encourage anyone who loves the atmosphere of a Gondry film to buy this soundtrack, it's a fabulous one.

5 out of 5 stars A perfectly surreal match for a fairly surreal movie.......2006-10-03

Jean-Michel Bernard is the man behind the music for this, the music of the latest Michael Gondry movie ("Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind"). I had never heard of him before, but he happens to have a few movie scores under his belt, Gondry's "Human Nature" (2001) among them, along with a few other albums.

The sound he puts out reminds of a blend between that of the previous Gondry collaborator, Jon Brion, and the specific album that David Hirschfelder composed for the movie "Shine". He incorporates samples of dialogue from the movie with classical and jazz elements, resulting in an overall score that is a perfectly surreal match for a fairly surreal movie.

The album contains a couple of very nice tracks from The Willowz (they seem to be a personal favorite of Gondry), along with a Kool & The Gang song ("Steppin' Out") that break the "spell" in the music that otherwise flows much like a dream from track to track.

5 out of 5 stars Zzzzilousous.......2006-09-21

I have never slept as well as I slept while listening to this album. The sounds of crickets chirping and sea crashing against the rocks on the north shore of england allowed me to drift off into a land of bliss and serenity... i highly reccomend this album

5 out of 5 stars Works for me.......2007-04-06

This CD has helped me fall asleep and also to wake up feeling better. I concur with the other reviewer who said the first song is louder than the others but that doesn't bother me. Set your volume between the first and later songs. The first song should attract your thoughts and energies. The step down in volume on subsequent songs is part of what soothes your body to sleep.

I've also discovered that the CD is great to wake up to--set it to start about 40-45 minutes before you would ordinarily wake. You'll gradually hear the music. I find I start the day calmer and yet alert. Somehow I can get out of bed later but still get to work on time. This was an unexpected benefit.

3 out of 5 stars Volume levels of songs different.......2005-11-02

The music is great. Most but not all of the time I am asleep before the first song ends. But if I am not when the rest of the songs play the volume is to low for what I have set for a comfortable level for the first one. The first one seems to play louder than all the others. I noticed the same thing when listening to the samples here. This does create a problem for me. I am not listening with headphones. Maybe that makes the difference. If I had a CD player with a remote maybe I could turn up the volume if I wasn't asleep after the first song. Really do love the music. It is very relaxing.

5 out of 5 stars Puts Me Right To Sleep.......2005-08-07

They really must have done major research into what makes people enter a relaxed state and then fall asleep, because this one puts me out faster than any of my other relaxation CDs. If you have problems falling asleep, give this album a try. And dream wonderful dreams...

5 out of 5 stars An excellent find!.......2005-08-02

One a trip to NYC this week I found this CD in the player next to the bed at our hotel and played it. We both loved it so much I am buying another copy.

5 out of 5 stars A DREAM COME TRUE.......2005-01-13

I have all kinds of sleep CDs & tapes; subliminals hypnotics, and so-called "sleep systems, but this is the first CD I've ever found which is more like a lullabye than a hit on the head. Definitely the best of its kind. Five stars is not enough.
