Originally released in 1971, Willy Wonka & The Chocolate Factory was an imaginative film that drew as much inspiration from the leftover vibes (and drugs) of the psychedelic '60s as it did from Roald Dahl's fanciful children's book, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. If you doubt it, check out this special 25th anniversary edition of the original soundtrack album, which features lyrics and music by Anthony Newley, who was a major influence on David Bowie and whose work on this film has clearly inspired '90s rockers from Veruca Salt (who took their name from the spoiled rich girl) to the Butthole Surfers (who could easily cover the sinister, trippy "Wondrous Boat Ride". C'mon, everybody, let's sing: "Oompa loompa/Doomp-ity-do/I've got another lesson for you...." --Jim Derogatis

Customer Reviews:

Good, but only if you are a fan of the movie..........2007-07-16

This CD is pretty cool, especially since it has all of the original "Oompa Loompa" songs on it. If you love the movie, you will love the CD. If you aren't a big fan of the music in the movie, don't bother.

Get your own golden ticket..........2007-05-15

This is such a great cd. It has all of the songs from the movie along with snipits of the actors talking during the movie. I would whole heartedly recommend this soundtrack.

All these years later..........2007-05-12

Bought this for my granddaughter who absolutely loves this movie. It was one of my faves as a kid too. She wanted to sing along to the Oompah Loompah songs. This is NOT the best format for that because they are scattered throughout and not all verses are here, but we do listen to this often.

Everything went great........2007-01-04

Well the title says it all. Everything went great. Item arrived fast and was in the condition they said it was. I will buy from them again.

Interesting Music for an Interesting Time in an Interesting Medium.......2006-12-26

"Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory" was a 1971 movie-musical adaptation of "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory," a 1963 children's book written by Roald Dahl, the famed author of children books such as "The Big Friendly Giant," "James and the Giant Peach," "Matilda," "George's Marvelous Medicine," and the sequel to this one, "Charlie and the Great Glass Elevator." The 2006 remake of this film shared it's name with the original book by Dahl, "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory." The original movie version stayed less true to the book, and in so doing it freed itself up for more creative uses of cinematic effect. And one example of creative discretion they wisely took advantage of was the inclusion of the songs on this soundtrack:

"I've Got a Golden Ticket"
"Cheer Up, Charlie"
"The Candyman"
"Pure Imagination"
"Oompa Loompa"
and "I Want It Now"

This is a pretty good mix of songs for the time (1971) and the medium (film soundtrack). The soundtrack is complimented by the film's strength as a children's movie that attained an almost cult status due to its script, costumes, set design, and cast (especially the lead role of Willy Wonka played by Gene Wilder). The music accompanies all these aspects of the movie very well. However, you have to be in the right mindset in order to enjoy this movie. If you're in the right mood (for example, hungry) the chocolate in this movie just might pull you in for the moment.

I bought the CD because I wanted the option of listening to the music without the movie setting. That way, I could just skip from track to track and listen to the songs without having to rewind or fastforward on my VHS player.

I digress, though. Rent the movie if you haven't seen it.

Perhaps R. Kelly's brushes with the law have caused him to turn down his love light, since his seventh album Chocolate Factory takes scrupulous pains to show an idealized high-minded face of love, eschewing his usual steamy cocktail of raunchy lust and replacing it with a sweet, winsome romanticism. "I'll Never Leave," is a wistful valentine, while "The Heart of a Woman," is embarrassingly empathetic to the plight of the feminine kind and is hardly the kind of fare that one expects from Marvin Gaye's heir apparent. Despite his real life racy escapades, Kelly is at his best musically when he's an unrepentant bad boy but he doesn't even show any grit until "Been Around the World," his confessional duet with a rasping Ja Rule, the fretful bluesy "You Made Me Love You," and "Ignition," a paean to parking. Despite "Ignition"'s first line, "Girl, please let me stick my key in your ignition, babe" it's rather tame by the standards Kelly has set on his earlier discs. "Chocolate Factory" also includes 6 bonus tracks from Loveland the album that was slated for a 2002 release, but was ostensibly shelved after it was rampantly bootlegged on the Internet. Despite the disc's soft focus, Kelly is at the height of his vocal powers, and once he weans himself from the gooey sentimentality and returns to his persona of a smooth seductive operator he'll once again be an artist to be reckoned with. --Jaan Uhelszki

Customer Reviews:

R. Kelly- Chocolate Factory.......2007-06-06

This album is full just true R&B music. This is great to see R bringing back good R&B music. With this one it is not all sex or partying or getting high, which there is a time and place for all those songs. But with Chocolate factory he focuses in on the whole topic of Love. And he covers it pretty well. This is not a sexed up love story. This is just good vintage R. Kelly without all the party songs. There are a few party bangers here and there, like the massive hit "Ignition" and the soon to be hit "Snake", but for the most part we see R return to the R&B loverman that we are used to. Which is definetly a good thing with the climate of the party/dance R&B nowadays taking up all the airwaves. I mean i have never heard a better R song than the calming soothing love song "Forever More" which could possibly be one of the best songs he has ever made. Its one of those songs that just makes you wanna fall deep in love with someone. Then there is the sweet "Forever" and the candy like "Dream Girl". And of course the title track is just as sweet if not sweeter than these two. I mean this album hardly has any flaws. The only tracks that kept this from a five star rating are "You Knock Me Out", and "Whos That". Those two tracks just did not fit in at all with the mood of this album. Honestly i have not seen this type of R. Kelly in a while and its nice to see someone still is going to sing about love instead of the trendy hip hop/party r&b that has been hogging all the airwaves. Definetly buy this one!!!

Without doubt R. Kelly's strongest & best disc vocally .......2006-12-10

Chocolate Factory is without doubt the strongest and best disc R. Kelly has ever done. Chocolate Factory not only returned Kelly to his SANGING roots but it also showed his growth as an artist at his creative peak. The first five tracks takes the listener on a musical journey that touches on everything from the beauty of a woman, stepping and aploiges. Other strong ballads include the marriage themed Forever and the sentimental Dream Girl. There's also the sexy ballad Imagine That which is text book R.Kelly and the HUGE single Igniton and it's remix. R. Kelly has yet to top this disc but hoepfully one day he will.

It's as if composer Danny Elfman's fertile relationship with director Tim Burton had been building up to this, their 11th collaboration and perhaps the one that best encapsulates their shared aesthetics: It's hard to think of a subject better suited to the two men than an adaptation of Roald Dahl's Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. For the occasion, Elfman has come up with five actual songs (and sings on them), which reminds one of the 1980s heyday of his old band, Oingo Boingo. The first, "Wonka's Welcome Song" is a demented minute-long blast that evokes 1960s kiddie TV. Each of the other four (which use Dahl's own words) is dedicated to one of the children invited to visit Willy Wonka's factory, and each is done is a different musical style. All are fantastically fun. A personal favorite is the mock-operatic "Mike TeaVee," on which Elfman basically transposes "Bohemian Rhapsody" to a hyperactive cartoon universe. The lovely "Main Titles" acts as a transition into the instrumental part of the score and will be familiar to fans of Elfman's music for Edward Scissorhands, particularly its otherworldly, celestial choral sound. The rest of the tracks simply represent the work of Elfman and his longtime arranger, Steve Bartek, at their best, alternately flamboyant, dreamlike, and suggestive. --Elisabeth Vincentelli

Description

Sweet songs to sing along to all summer along! Featuring ALL the songs from the film including "Wonka's Welcome Song" and 4 Oompa-Loompa songs.

Customer Reviews:

Love it.......2007-06-27

I saw the movie and loved the soundtrack so I decided to purchase it. I actually listen to it in my car on the way home from work and it's amazing how such funny songs can lift me.

Chocolate Explorers.......2007-01-11

-A Tim Burton movie without a Danny Elfman score would be like a Jerry Bruckheimer movie without a Media Venture *or Remote Control* score. They just go together so beautifully that you'd think it was their destiny to be together. Elfman uses a lot of his patent techniques with the movie and he uses them well to create a very well done score to a very well made movie.

-The album starts of with the songs, but I don't care for them so I don't really waste time on it. After those we get into the score and things start off with the Main Titles. Elfman is the best in the business when it comes to Main Titles but the one here isn't his best. It changes tempos far too often and just feels all over the place. One second it's sweet and heartwarming, the next it's fast and loud. The next couple of tracks are classic Elfman magic that makes you wonder how the red headed composer is able to write music so good it does things to you when you listen to it.

-My personal favorites are "Golden Ticket/Factory", "Chocolate Explorers", "The Boat Arrives", "River Cruise" and off course the highlight of the album, "River Cruise Pt. 2". The other tracks are great but those are the ones that I can't live without.

-When it comes to songs Elfman knows how to write great ones as he has proven before in the past, unfortunately the songs here aren't exactly his best. Apart from "Veruca Salt" there was never really any song that I really liked. It was just a little too weird and off putting for me to fully get into. The reason why he used the weird little kazoo like voices was because the oompa loompas are small which works great in theory, but it comes off kinda of annoying in the movie.

-For me the best part of an album is the unused or alternate tracks. In this we get the fantastic "River Cruise Pt. 2". I don't know why it didn't make it in the movie, but my guess is editing changes at the last second. It's a shame because it's my favorite piece of music on the whole album. The choir that comes in at the 19 second mark and the high string that Elfman throws in and out is a great pleasure to listen to. Don't know why it didn't make it into the movie, but I'm guessing it had something to do with editing changes at the last minute

-It's not Elfman's strongest outing, but it's a very enjoyable one that was truly one of the best of 2005.

finally, they get it!!!.......2006-12-07

finally a soundtrack w the exact music from the movie. imagine that! i am so sick of soundtracks that either change the music (polar express) or leave it off (anastasia). movie companies just do not seem to get that if someone buys the soundtrack it is because they want the music from the movie.

Unbelievable underscore; but undercooked, unmelodic, unmemorable songs.......2006-09-08

For me, Danny Elfman is among the most brilliant film composers of all time, so it disappointed me that the songs written for this film just couldn't in fairness be said to be good.

One of Elfman's signature moves as a composer is his sparkling ability to shatter the monolithic score into all manner of little skittering shards of runs, switches of time signature or key, etc. He's extremely agile and light on his feet, with a kind of restless energy that seems impossible to satisfy with anything straightahead for more than a few seconds at a time.

That's often great for a score, but it can be ruinous for a song, depending on how strong the theme is and how well established it becomes and thus able to be broken apart with bursts of novelty without the audience losing comprehension of the song that can also go by the names "hooky," "catchy," "hummable," or "memorable". These aren't catchy songs, and have so little catchy material inside them that they're difficult to even remember afterward.

On the other hand that may be beside the point for this film and reflect Elfman's willing subservience to the glorious inventive Busby Berkeley production numbers Burton creates. It's not too hard to recall crazy production-number songs filled with funny changes in other films that nonetheless stayed lodged in one's head for days. I don't see how catchy songs could have hurt, but we don't know what kind of notes he was given by Burton. The melodies are often at around the elementary level of the chorus of Oingo Boingo's "Dead Man's Party" -- perhaps the intent was to conjure oompa-loompaness. Maybe given more time he'd have found a better way. Film composer's deadlines are beyond brutal.

At any rate, they're not particularly listenable songs. Regarding the rest of the score, bravo.

Charlie And The Chocolate Factory... .......2006-08-04

Mysterious and haunting, this darken soundtrack is easy to listen to as Danny Elfman did another excellent job of conducting a dark and beautiful score. Some of it is fast paced while some of the other tracks are slow paced, giving the score a balance. Danny Elfman was perfect for the job on this score, for he has composed a lot of scores that "The Wonderful" Johnny Depp was in. The music is a little simular to the Casper 1995 original score, a haunting and melodic score. This soundtrack is highly recommended along with the other eerie scores of Mr. Danny Elfman.

Sweet like chocolate.......2007-07-17

R. Kelly's 2003 album "Chocolate Factory" is truly one of his finest works, a consistent and well-produced album of heartfelt and well-written love songs. Unlike his last few albums, "Chocolate Factory" lacks the sexually explicit undertones throughout most of the album, and the main theme of this album is love, pure and simple. The songwriting is excellent, ranging from midtempo ballads to upbeat club tracks, with clever lines and hooks. Kelly lets his immense singing talent take centerstage here, be it his incredible range, singing fast, or collaborating. "Chocolate Factory" is a very complete and fulfilling album, the songs are pure, fun, and as enjoyable as any of his work. The tracklist runs a little too long, but I highly recommend "Chocolate Factory," one of the best albums from one of R&B's finest talents.

The album begins with the title track, a clever and upbeat love song that starts the disc on a lovely note. The original version of "Step in the Name of Love" is no where near as well known as the infamous remix, it's a less memorable song and doesn't stand out on this album. The deep "Heart of a Woman" is nice, and the sunny "I'll Never Leave" is beautifully written, allowing R. Kelly to shine on the track. Ja Rule guests on "Been Around the World," a very good ode to his fans and friends throughout his career. "You Made Me Love You" isn't one of the better songs here, but "Forever" is a heartfelt song to a woman. I really like "Dream Girl," which precedes the classic "Ignition" and "Ignition (Remix)." These songs are undeniable R&B classics. The first is a gorgeous song about late-night love, while the ultra-catchy remix is one of R. Kelly's greatest songs, a funky and upbeat number with great production and unforgettable verses. "Forever More" is another simple and appealing love song, and "You Knock Me Out" is a unique track for this album, a Latin-influenced blues number. "Step in the Name of Love (Remix)" was a landmark recording for R. Kelly, taking his winding career down yet another path, and bringing the culture of Chicago's step music to the masses. The live instrumentation on this song is wonderful, an understated soulful funk, and R. Kelly's performance is possibly the most likable of his discography. After the very nice "Imagine That" comes a definite highlight, the nine-minute "Showdown," a collaboration with Ronald "Mr. Biggs" Isley. With spoken interludes, a phone call, and a story involving deception, love, and conflict, the two tell a very entertaining tale with their vocals. The popular club track, the single "Snake," is an excellent late-album track, and the album closes with one of my favorites, the sweet "Apologies of a Thug." Over some awesome production with a perfect vocal sample, the singer's almost spoken verses make this song excellent. If possible, the Limited Edition is a valuable purchase, because the second disc contains some extra material. "Heaven I Need a Hug" and "The World's Greatest" are two of my favorite R. Kelly songs, they are both uplifting and truly wonderful, making a great addition to the already excellent tracklist.

R. Kelly is at his best on songs like these: simple, well-written, and purely clean loves songs. These will appeal to any listener of any age, his talent is undeniable and the material is wonderful. Definitely pick up "Chocolate Factory."

R. KELLY AT THE TOP OF HIS GAME............2004-01-10

Despite recent and persistent legal troubles, R. Kelly proves once again that he is still at the top of his game. Longtime fans will compare this album to 12 Play---full of tracks with great beats, and fabulous lyrical content. The heat is there also--but there are signs of R becoming more muscially mature and willing to test the limits of his fans. "Imagine That" experiments with electric guitars and has a rock-like sound Kelly fans aren't used to hearing from him, but he of course makes it work. R. Kelly travels from one musical extreme to the other--from tracks reminiscent of rock bands to the heady, romantic, sexy tracks that he's best known for.

Despite the scandals, R shows that he is still quite capable of turning out a quality product.

Who dat is..........da Piped Piper of R & B!!!.......2003-10-22

I had this cd since the first day it came out, but I never thought to write a review until now.

Well check this out!!! This cd is off da chain. R. Kelly out does himself again. Can't nobody touch this album, nobody.

From the first cut, the title track Chocolate Factory, just draws you in. Then you have to Step In The Name of Love. When you hear R. tell you to shut up that he'll never leave, oh it's on then. Track, after track, after track, is just intoxicating.

This man is a Lyrical Genius. I like a lot of other male artists, but I'm sorry when it comes to writing, producing, singing and performing R. Kelly's got it hands down. He is definitely the R. in R & B...ya heard!!!

Da Bomb Diggity!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.......2003-10-21

R.Kelly is a musical genius his music is real mellow and soothing. I rate him as the king of R&B. Even when people keep trying to discourage me against buying his stuff what can I say the man has been blessed with a gift. He is an artist. All I can say is brother keep them hits coming.

I love EVERY song on this album! It is an example of pure talent! Thank you R. Kelly for this musical masterpiece. I listen to this cd everyday at work.

Kelly at his best.......2003-08-18

R.Kelly has done a sensational job with this album. The man is a great artist, songwriter, producer, in short the man is a musical genius. We could all take into account his personal life or we could just appreciate beautiful music when we hear it. R.kelly as shown that he is not just a freaky bump n' grind guy but a soulful person who can make any type of music. Any guy that can write and produce a song as big as I believe I can fly, Gotham city and then turn around and write if I could turn back the hands of time, is a genius in my book. Hats off to my man

r kelly is the bomb just listen to his songs from loveland to this one it shows maturity flavoured with the good old sensational vibes which he used to blast before TP2.COM i think if you don't acquire chocolate factory you are lost
i just love his staff especially dream girl

Edited.......2003-03-19

The CD is great but does anyone know why it is edited. Its really frusterating to listen to especially when words are bleeped out. Thats my only complaint to the cd. Does anyone know if there are any non-edited cds out there???

THIS IS THE ONE.......2003-03-11

I HAVE ALWAYS LIKE R.KELLY, BUT NOW I LOVE HIM! THIS IS THE CD I HAVE LONG TO HEAR FROM HIM. I DONT KNOW IF THIS IS AN APOLOGY FOR THE DRAMA IN HIS LIFE PRESENTLY , BUT I FORGIVE HIM...HIS SONGS, HEART OF A WOMAN, FOREVER, I'LL NEVER LEAVE, IMAGINE THAT, BEEN AROUND THE WORLD, ARE MY FAVORITES...I LIKE THE OLD SCHOOL FLAVOR...HE TOOK IT BACK...WAY BACK! I CAN DEFINATELY SEE A DIFFERENT SIDE TO HIM. I LOVE IT, I'M TELLING EVEYONE I KNOW TO GET IT!

Two Classics from the G.O.A.T.......2006-10-01

first and foremost ain't nobody touching R.Kelly Musically, he is unstoppable&he is the Best Ever. He is the most soulful&Best Artist in the World period. next nobody can beat you in versatility&overall stylings&make it all work. nobody else can bring a Hip-Hop vibe with a Classic R&B vibe&combine that with a strong Pop texture for hooks&Vocals that are send from a whole place beyond this planet. TP2: "I wish" was strong&powerful. felt the words&could relate to it. if you have ever lost a close Love One in your family or lost a friend then you can relate to this song. " the Greatest sex" was very versatile in tone&style."I don't mean it" dug Donnie Lyles Guitar work&R-Ruh's Multi Vocal Runs on lead&Background can't be faded. the Soul Brother hit a Note in that song&you can't fade that. "Feeling on Yo Booty" was funny&on time. go to a Club&if you are dancing with a banging Booty chick then you are Cuff on that Bootay!! that is still a cut. "Fiesta" still is Jamming big time. the "Stormis Over", a Woman's threat" ain't no joke. ain't no other artist who can be as expressive as Him¬ miss a beat. He has a special Gift.

Chocolate Factory: the greatest Album of the 00 era period in any style or category."Ignition" is the party jam of this Centry Period. "Step in the Name of Love" is the grown Folks Feel Good Cook Out Jam. that is my Jam period. Feel Good Music 101 right there. "Dream Girl" is a Feel Good Smooth Jam. take your Lady on the Beach&just chill in the sand&play this song&watch the good times kick in. "Forever" this is the Wedding Song right here. makes you want to get on your knees&take your Lady by the hand&put that Ring on her finger. the Guitar at the start&R-Ruh's voice are so on time. the arrangements on this album are something that the Man is underrated in. R.Kelly is versatile&so creative that it's scary. He is the Ultimate Musical Genius.He can't touched as a Songwriter, can't be touched as a Arranger, can't be touched Vocally, Can't be touched as a Producer,&also as Instrumentalist. R.kelly is in a Class all by himself. His Music leaves many feelings&impressions. there ain't anybody else quite like Him. these two albums show you how incredibly Gifted The Musical Genius of our time truly is. He is the G.O.A.T. missing a Album thus far this year. Music ain't the same when the "R" ain't got anything out. hopefully this year will see a New Project,but anyway these two Classics hold things down.
