Director Cameron Crowe is the kind of guy who you just know makes killer custom compilations for his friends. Lucky for us, this is basically what this album is. While it¹s nominally linked to Crowe's movie of the same name, it feels like a leisurely stroll down his record shelves. The tone here is a lot more varied than on the first CD, which was mostly rootsy Americana. Sure, there are return artists like Tom Petty ("Learning to Fly," from 1991's Into the Great Wide Open), Ryan Adams ("Words"), and Lindsey Buckingham ("Big Love"), but the newcomers are more intriguing. Two of the best and least expected ones are paired in the middle of the album. The lovely, dreamy "...Passing By" was culled from the 2001 debut by German electronica master Ulrich Schnauss; following it are Sweden's Concretes and their buoyant, '60s-infused "You Can't Hurry Love" (not the Supremes tune). Meanwhile, Rachael Yamagata's "Jesus Was a Crossmaker" is a cover, and it preserves the wonderful mix of folk and pop of the 1971 original by cult icon Judee Sill. This is the rare sequel that feels richer than the album it follows. --Elisabeth Vincentelli

5 out of 5 stars While my husband was at war, he felt like this was a piece of home..........2007-07-13

... so I totally have a soft spot for the movie and soundtracks. I just love the music from all of the soundtracks. Any southern folk/rock appreciater will like it . . . and definately any fan of Patty Griffin will love it. Moon River is great. And if you get a chance, watch the movie twice, trust me, it's the second time that really counts.

5 out of 5 stars The second volume is almost as good as the first........2007-06-05

From the opening lines of Tom Petty's Learning to Fly (which was a surprise omission from the original soundtrack), volume 2 picks up where volume 1 left off, a beautiful mix of eternal hope and infinite melancholy. Ryan Adam's English Girls Approximately is simply brilliant, as are most of the other tracks, Funky Nassau Pt 1, the achingly gorgeous Summerlong and who can forget The Temptation's I Can't Get Next To You. Simply think of the scene where Orlando Bloom is about to end it all on the exercise machine when the phone rings. True story, I have even installed the same short clip from the song as the ringtone on my mobile phone. This is one CD that will suerly turn 'your grey skies blue.' Word of warning though, do yourself a favour and skip the track What Are They Doing In Heaven Today by Washington Phillips, it is simply the worst song I have ever heard! And what happened to Ruckus' version of Freebird? That is the only glaring ommission from the soundtrack. Once again, thumbs up again to director Cameron Crowe, his CD library must be truly amazing to unearth gems like these. Overall this was almost as good as the volume 1 soundtrack, but not quite.

1 out of 5 stars Not entirely monotonous and insipid.......2007-05-16

The movie was pretty good, and the songs seemed to be appealing. I bought this volume and volume one for my wife, for her first Mother's Day. I gave one star to volume one as well, and have the same report for this cd also; we patiently waited for a good song, and I think we found one marginally acceptable one.

3 out of 5 stars Music.......2007-05-12

This CD was considerably better than the first edition. It's still boring but it has a couple of good songs on it. I'm sorry I bought either CD.

4 out of 5 stars A more music from CD which had to be made!...........2007-04-17

As the movie isn't that good,it music delivers so much and the both soundtracks are a must have for every music fans.Such talented artists and moving songs.What's funnier is that overall the CDs aren't my favorites but the creators managed to create such an atmosphere,world,sensation,ect...around it that I can't help but love theme for what they make me feel.It's true,this one's better but buy the first to cause one without the other's not the way it's supposed to be.

A must for any Primary Elementary Teacher and Substitute. The songs are lively and kids love them. I use them substituting as a reward for being on task and taking a break.

My 2 year old loves this CD. We listen to it at home and in the car. She loves to dance to Listen and Move. We like that it teaches the months of the year. Number Rock and The Freeze are great too!

5 out of 5 stars Kids want to play OVER AND OVER AND OVER.......2004-01-11

Preschool children absolutely love

*Listen and move - They tiptoe, run, hop, gallap and laugh their way to some energy release!

* The Number rock - In a circle joining hands and yelling and screaming the numbers. Helps to count and recgonize sequencing. Then we all fall to the ground!

*The Freeze - they just want to keep freezing (We like to freeze in a really goofy position)

*The World is a Rainbow - We have rainbow streamers that children do things with. We ask each child to wave their streamer in a unique way to this song and then everyone copies.

Amazon.com

Is it forgivable that the second volume of songs from Adam Sandler's mid-'80s-revival comedy begins with Kajagoogoo's famously limp "Too Shy"? Not really, but the rest of the disc does a good job of recapitulating worthy memories from the era of torn-sweatshirt necks and mulletheads--not just with new-wave novelties but with Madonna and Hall & Oates staples ("Holiday" and "You Make My Dreams," respectively) as bouncy and glossy as anything the also-present Depeche Mode ("Just Can't Get Enough") and Dead or Alive ("You Spin Me Round [Like a Record]") ever put on the radio or MTV. The Cars' "It's All I Can Do" and the J. Geils Band's "Love Stinks" encapsulate the Sandler character's romantic frustrations, while the star's own "Grow Old with Me" actually points toward a serious career as a singer/songwriter for our boy. Eek. --Rickey Wright

5 out of 5 stars Tunes from the 80s.......2007-01-26

Loved the movie love the tunes. "Grow Old With You," especially tugs at your heart strings.

4 out of 5 stars Solid sountrack if you liked the movie.......2007-01-15

This movie was a favorite in our household and my daughters always enjoyed the karaoke a the end of the DVD, so we searched for the soundtrack. I actually chose this volume over volume 1 for two reasons...it contains the favorite from the movie, "I want to grow old with you" actually sung by Adam Sandler and secondly, because Volume 1 contains the song that Adam Sandler sings about his ex-girlfriend, which contains quite a bit of profanity, so I didn't want to get it for my kids. I would have given it five stars, but we find the introduction by Billy Idol at the start of the last track, "I want to grow old with you," which is dialog from the movie, to be distracting and it gets tiring to have to listen to over and over when you just want to hear the song, which I mentioned was the absolute favorite.

5 out of 5 stars As good as volume 1.......2007-01-11

This album took me back to "the good old Days". If you love 80's music this is a must have! The first volume was great but I was left wondering, "what happened to the rest of the music from the movie?" Volume 2 answered that question. You won't be sorry if you get this CD. Maybe it too will take you back to "the good old days".

5 out of 5 stars Finally found it!.......2006-02-25

Aahh...the uniqueness of 80s music. Been looking for the Flying Lizards "Money" song since then. It's been on several movie sound tracks however it never made it on the 'sound track CD' until now. "Leisure Rules"

5 out of 5 stars if you like the 80's.......2006-02-21

you will love this album. Truth be told I liked this one more than the first cd. The recordings are excellent.

Voice Lessons To Go! Volume 2 Do Re Mi Ear and Pitch Training

Voice Lessons To Go! is a great way to get going on your singing voice. Whether just beginning or as an addition to the work you have done. Now there is no excuse not to practice and improve because this CD makes it so convenient and easy.

Do Re Mi Ear and Pitch Training is the second CD to Ariella Vaccarino's series of Voice Lessons To Go (Please read about Volume One- Ocalize and Breath). Do Re Mi trains the ear through vocal exercises. First, start simple with tone recognition. Next, the heart of the CD, Solfedge, (Do Re Mi...)- In that you will concentrate on forms of the major and chromatic scales graduating into chord recognition. Finally, Do Re Mi ends with, Hearing Your Note, showing you how to sing specific notes out of a group.

This CD will be amazing in aiding you in your musicianship skills while continuing to strengthen your voice!

Do Re Mi is perfect for all levels of singers. Whether you are just a beginner who is interested in developing as a musician, or an advanced singer wanting to refine your musicianship skills.

You will be guided through the exercises with vocal examples and piano accompaniment by Ariella Vaccarino an excellent experienced voice teacher and professional singer from Los Angeles. Ariella's explanations are clear and easy to follow.

Developing your singing voice no longer has to be just for people trying to make a career with their voice, or those with disposable income who can afford private lessons. The weekly price for voice lessons averages $45-150 an hour depending on your city.

Who is this CD for?

Singers, Actors, Dancers- This is an inexpensive way for the struggling artist to get and keep their voices in shape.

Teenagers - Whether you are watching American Idol with pangs of desire to be on there, sing loudly along with your favorite pop stars, are trying out for the school musical, or dreaming of singing at the MET some day.

People who struggling singing- There are those out there who feel, (it could be true or not) that they can't sing and are embarassed when they have to be heard by others. This is an excellent private way to improve your singing with out having to deal with embarassment or shyness. This CD will increase your abilities and confidence.

Adults- Always singing in your car, shower, or doing Karaoke? -but just are not willing or able to shower yourself with private lessons yet.

5 out of 5 stars Old Singers benefit too.......2007-02-09

I have both Volume 1 and 2. I have been singing all of my life but after the birth of my last child almost 10 lbs I learned some really bad habits and what I was doing before wasn't working anymore. Both have helped me to gradually improve my voice. 1 Helped me to focus on breathing. Two is helping me to associate the solfege with the piano and concentration/focus. I haven't made it through the whole CD yet. Our choir is also using this CD for exercises. It's just a great all around CD!
THanks for a great product.

5 out of 5 stars great cd .......2007-01-21

only one thing i'm not feel good is i can hear the noise(like car pass the street).

4 out of 5 stars Good training for your voice.......2007-01-06

If you can't have a personal voice coach this CD is a good way to go to help you exercize your vocals and stay in top form.

5 out of 5 stars Practical.......2006-09-09

I warm up with this cd in the hotel before a show. I waited a couple months to buy CD2 after I had CD 1. I had started taking vocal coaching and using cd 1 reinforced how important breathing is. I am glad I waited before buying this cd. By the time you get to the higher level exercises of CD 2, you'll need some concept of breathing properly.
This cd starts very simple with the first few tracks asking the listener to identify if two notes are higher, lower or the same. Then it proceeds to identifying if a voice part sung after a vocal part is the same or different. These ear exercises are direct and to the point and really do help. Don't worry, you start singing soon enough.
Solfedge is explained in a concise manner so if you don't know it you will, and if you do your money hasn't been spent on more than a few minutes of review.
The singing starts with Do Mi Sol Mi Dos. I'm a baritone and the singer I would guess is a soprano. Problem? Actually, the beneift was I had to focus and identify the same note a few octaves down. This extra "lesson" on my own is an unintended plus.
Major, minor, augmented and diminished chords are practiced. Your ear will improve and you will hear the chords sung more in songs after getting this down.
I've been using it on my drive to work in the mornings. I have had the cd a few weeks and am just reaching tracks 18 and 19 with confidence. Sometimes Ariella Vaccarino sings quite fast as the exercise proceeds. Simply hit the back button and start at the slower part at the beginning of the track.
It really is great to have this in the car or home as I am getting more out of my weekly voice lessons. Add to that, I don't have to play the piano myself. I can stand in front of the mirror and focus on posture.
This brings me back to cd 1. Though my breathing needs work, a weekly lesson and the time I spent with cd 1 before trying this out helps me recognize when I have tension in my throat or am not controlling my breath.
Why is this alone not enough? There is no way the cd can tell you you are leaning too far back and squeezing your lungs, give you a sense of how to raise your soft pallate or make sure to cover every point such as men usually jump straight from chest voice to falsetto at first while women have more of a gradual mid voice.
When I give this cd 5 stars it means for 15 dollars you are getting a product with no fluff that is the perfect compliment to some type of training. Even if the training is just a few lessons to get you started. You'll get out of it what you put into it.

5 out of 5 stars If out of stock please purchase above NEW on Marketplace.......2006-08-15

Hey everyone, thank you so much for your great response to my CDs. Amazon is having a lot of trouble keeping them in stock. They are not ordering enough in time etc... Just so you know the other option is buying them off of Amazon Marketplace. At the top of this is the option to buy them new or used. I sell them directly new on it, (and they are actually cheaper so you can buy both volumes). Hope this tip helps. I've loved reading your responses and reviews. I think it is great that so many of you out there are singing!

Amazon.com

Quentin Tarantino wraps up his dizzy double-dose of martial arts film tribute cum informed paean to junk cinema with the throw-it-all-against-wall abandon that's become his cliched trademark, if not necessarily his true strength as a filmmaker. That sensibility has long informed his quirky, world-pop savvy soundtracks as well, though this chapter's collection gratifyingly sacrifices a dollop of eclecticism in favor of a little more focused nuance. Revolving loosely around a decidedly international, free-floating axis of Latin rhythm (Chingon's "Malaguena Salerosa, " the flamenco-demento of Lole Y Manuel's "Tu Mira") and Western twang, Tarantino's choices include Morricone both familiar (The Good, the Bad and Ugly's evocative "Il Tramonto") and less so (Il mercenario's "l'arena," "A Silhoutte of Doom"), fellow Roman film scorer Luis Bacalov's slinky, guitar-driven "The Summertime Killer" and a couple disparate slices of Americana by country legend Johnny Cash and rockabilly loose cannon Charlie Feathers. The director's pop fare covers less adventuresome territory, though Malcolm McLaren's trip-hop take on the Zombie's British Invasion chestnut "She's Not There" somehow seems all-of-a-piece with the retro groove of Shivaree's "Goodnight Moon" and melodramatic kitsch of Japanese actress Meiko Kaji's "Urami Bushi." It's all interspersed with excerpts of Tarantino-penned dialog from the film, snippets that only inspire an even greater admiration for his adventurous taste as musical compiler/supervisor. -- Jerry McCulley

Thank you very much, very good music. I very like Tarantino. Music from his films is very very good.

A good CD that suffers considerably from the missing tracks. However, as a result of searching for that which is amiss I was rewarded by finding R. Rodriguez's music, and Del Castillo.

This Cd does not have everything on it from kill bill 2 that I wanted. A few songs and the bride training with pai mei hitting wooded wall saying
ah ah ah ah. So there for I was somewhat dissapoint with this cd.

5 out of 5 stars Music From Kill Bill 2...........2006-10-09

I remember first seeing Kill Bill part 1 in the theatre, and hearing the opening track (Nancy Sinatra's "Bang Bang"). It was solely this track that made me want to pick up that soundtrack, and which lead me to picking up this sequel as well. I like this soundtrack much better. Yeah sure, some songs from the movie aren't on here. This album still delivers though. Among my favs:

Track 2 - Awesome soft rock song. Shivaree sounds so sexy too.
Track 4 - A great country sounding song, I love the way Charlie Feathers sings! It's kinda funny.
Track 5 - Great spanish song sung by a kid; makes me think of poor dirt road towns in Mexico
Track 10 - Not a big Johnny Cash fan, but the lyrics in this song are great. Seriously.
Track 12 - AWESOME song. I bet 100 bucks you'll like this one
Track 14 - My fav. song on the album. A GREAT latin rock song. Makes me wish I was singing that to a bunch of latinas. Man I'd get so much--err nevermind.
Track 15 - My 2nd fav. song. A great chill song sung by a Japanese Woman. Makes me think I'm in a dark empty bar in Tokyo or somethin. I dont know what's up with the rap music lateron in this track -prob. hidden- but it sucks.

Bottom line, if you have good taste in music, pick this one up. I don't ever buy soundtracks, but this one and the first kill bill OST are in my collection.

3 out of 5 stars missing songs spoilt it for me.......2006-03-03

i too wish i had been more careful and read the reviews, then i would have noticed all the missings songs and that the main one i wanted ( navajo joe - ennio morricone --bills exit ) was not on there. i still would have bought it but would not have been so dissapointed when i got to the end. i also feel very cheated.
what is the point of bringing out a soundtrack and missing out songs? should it not be all of them?
i feel bills exit music was a key song that should not have been missed off, as this scene is the whole point of the films, when she finally gets her revenge and should not have been missed.

worth buying but a dissapointment

So there's this pop singer... you may have heard of her? Madonna, she's called, and the word is that she's basically all image; she went through a put-your-hands-all-over-my-body phase, then she got spiritual, and then she started wearing cowboy hats. Between all the gossip columns and photo shoots, though, she's left an unmatched trail of devastatingly wonderful singles--roaring dance records, tender ballads, and a curious combination of the two that is her personal specialty ("Secret" and "Ray of Light"). How many artists' best-of-the-second-decade collections crowd out legitimate hits? ("American Pie," anyone? "This Used to Be My Playground"?) Unlike 1990's Immaculate Collection, GHV2 doesn't have any new material; "Don't Cry for Me, Argentina," from Evita, and the glorious '60s pastiche "Beautiful Stranger" are the only songs that haven't appeared on a Madonna album before. But it compresses her past 10 years worth of records into an hour of one peak after another. --Douglas Wolk

5 out of 5 stars The best of the best.......2007-07-03

If you want the 90's hits of madonna you must have this in your own collection. I love it

4 out of 5 stars Completes the greatest hits collection.......2007-05-15

if you only want 2 of Madonna's cd's, get this and the immaculate collection and you will then have all of the best known hits on those cd's.

4 out of 5 stars Not so great for Madonna's fans.......2007-02-28

First of all, I love this CD. It is a great collection for Madonna's 1990-2000's career.
However, I was a bit disappointed since it adds nothing special. That is there are no new songs, or special mix.

If you are looking for Madonna's hit songs in one CD, this is a great
album. However, if you are huge fan of Madonna and already having all the CDs of her, there is really nothing special about this CD.

Moreover, many great songs are not included.

4 out of 5 stars Madonna GHV2.......2007-02-16

This cd is really very good.
The only down sides are that some of her songs from this period are missing, some edited, and no new songs were added.
Otherwise, it is fantastic,a great buy, and a must have for any Madonna fan.

Impressive.

5 out of 5 stars I'm feelin these.......2006-11-18

I won't say to everybody this greatest hits is highly recommended. Being that I never heard all of her albums, so a true fan may feel like some songs is missin'. However for me, who is just really startin to seriously get into pop is somewhat satisfied with these and this is a 5 star collection to me. Some of the tracks I love, a couple I don't like at all and the rest I just like.
My favorite ones are in order;
Erotica
Ray of Light
Beautiful Stranger
The power of goodbye
Deeper and Deeper
The prodution is excellent and I love the vocals. If your new to Madonna, my opinion would be to start here. But a true fan can give me lessons.

4 out of 5 stars Great CD - Very happy with purchase.......2007-07-01

With the exception of 'I Really Love You' (I don't remember this one) I'm happy with the rest of the songs. The only thing they're missing are the hiss and pop of the old 45's. These are from the early 60 and the chart numbers (on the back of the case) show they were all in the top 30, mand 10 or higher. I'm going to wear the grooves out on this CD :-)

5 out of 5 stars Oldies.......2007-05-15

The CD was everything I wanted and more you hear the song's a fraction of the time on the radio

5 out of 5 stars Hard to find 45's on CD.......2007-04-07

This is a really great CD!! I didn't know how to find these songs without my old 45's. The CD was in excellent condition and delivered on time as promised.

5 out of 5 stars Great CD.......2007-01-17

Along with the one song I've been looking for, this has a lot of great songs.

I received the 45's On CD Vol 2: 1961-1964, and already looking for more of these lost gems. Some of the songs I had on 45's which had worn with age and use. Now I can have the songs I grew up with forever on CD. Love it!! Bring out more of 'em.

Amazon.com essential recording

The latter part of the '70s found Ronstadt roughing up her image a bit, covering songs by the Rolling Stones and Warren Zevon and eventually taking inspiration from the burgeoning punk and new-wave scenes. All of this was a long way away from the laid-back country-rock sound that established her as one of the top female artists of the day. On the material collected here, Ronstadt remains as strong a singles artist as ever. Greatest Hits, Vol. 2 contains winners such as "It's So Easy," "Blue Bayou," and the Chuck Berry romp "Living in the U.S.A.," as well as edgier material such as the Stones' "Tumbling Dice" and Zevon's "Poor Poor Pitiful Me." --Daniel Durchholz

4 out of 5 stars songs of our youth.......2007-07-30

Remember Linda Ronstadt and the Stone Ponies. Remember Linda Ronstadt and her ex-paramour ex-California Governor Jerry Brown. No matter. These songs and the earlier Volume I Greatest Hits are what you want to remember about Linda Ronstadt. No exactly a torch singer, not exactly a classic rocker, not exactly a country or folk singer. But comfortable in all those genres. The songs, for the most part, travel well over time as does her rendition of them. Stand outs here include the lengendary Roy Oberson's Blue Bayou and my favorite the Chuck Berry classic Back in the U.S.A. Hey, the Stone's Tumbling Dice is well done, as well.

5 out of 5 stars Greatest songs of all time #2.......2006-09-09

Everything I said in my review about her Greatest Hits, Volume #1 goes double for this one. Nuff said. Thank you linda.

5 out of 5 stars Linda at her peak.......2005-01-08

the first Greatest Hits (1976) for Linda Ronstadt caught her as she was still a rising star in the California sound. Greatest Hits Vol. 2 (1980) is the culmination of the peak years of Linda's popularity, 1977-1980.

When "Greatest Hits" was released, Linda was still pushing Hasten Down The Wind (also 1976). In early 1977, she had a surprise hit single with "Someone To Lay Down Beside Me", which is included here. The song was not one of Linda's biggest, but it's a powerful, memorable track.

In the fall of 1977, Linda released her biggest album ever, "Simple Dreams". The album contained no less than four major hit singles, two of which ("It's So Easy" and "Blue Bayou") were on Billboard's top 5 at the same time in late 1977. "Blue Bayou" showcases Linda at her best Patsy Cline vocal moment, "It's So Easy" is a classic country-rocker, "Poor Poor Pitiful Me" was a great and sarcastic Warren Zevon number, and her version of The Stone's "Tumbling Dice" shows just what a great female rocker Linda is.

The next year, Linda topped the charts again with "Living In The U.S.A.", in which three hits are culled. "Back In The U.S.A." is sadly one of the weakest hits of her catalog. The Chuck Berry version is classic, but Linda's version is rather aimless. However, all is made up by Linda's smash top 10 jazzy version of "Ooh Baby Baby". Another classic Ronstadt-style track is "Just One Look".

Even though "Living In The U.S.A." was another #1 platinum smash for Linda, it became obvious her formula was getting stale. So Linda decided to shake things up and returned in early 1980 with "Mad Love". Guarenteed to show the Benatar's and Harry's that she is still a force to be reckoned with, "Mad Love" became another huge hit, even if it missed #1. The hard-rocking "How Do I Make You" was the first single and it quickly went top 10, then Linda released a breathtaking remake of "Hurt So Bad" that became an even bigger hit. The third single culled from the album, "I Can't Let Go" harkens back to her Stone Poneys days, but updated to sound 80's.

"Greatest Hits Vol. 2" was released in late 1980 and was the culmination of this stellar hitmaking period in Ronstadt's career. One more rock album (1982's Get Closer) after this and then Linda settled into the world of standards, Adult Contemporary and Spanish music, all genres she has done well at too.

4 out of 5 stars Chopped off ..........2004-09-16

This compilation covers Ronstadt's biggest hits from the late '70's/early '80's. Some lesser singles were excluded:

* "Rambler Gambler" (#42 Country) was the B-side of "How Do I Make You," but did not appear on the "Mad Love" album.

* "Lose Again" (#76 Pop) and the Country singles "Crazy" (#6), "I Never Will Marry" (#8) and "Love Me Tender" (#59) are also missing.

My biggest grievance, though, is with the edits of the songs. Many of the songs cut off 5-10 seconds too soon. As a result, the songs end rather abruptly. I don't know whether Asylum has or will correct this. For now, I suggest tracking down a used vinyl version of this album. The sound may not be as pristine, but the songs will at least be complete.

5 out of 5 stars Simply Incredible.......2006-09-11

I will try to be quick with this review.

By looking at these CDs you most probably have watched the movie and liked the music in it, which in my humble opinion was incredible.

So which one to buy then?

The answer is the following one:

If you are looking for more mainstream music, R&B, rock etc. than you should go for the first CD.
If on the other hand, you are looking for an orchestrated music etc., than go for the second CD.

To conclude: If you have watched the movie, the R&B/rock music is mostly found in the first CD (Volume 1) while the slow ballads and orchestras are mostly found in the second CD (Volume 2).

I hope that I could help you ^_^

4 out of 5 stars Possible geniuses?.......2006-06-26

Scores, which can be compared to being the middle child of the movie making machine due to the fact that they are sandwiched in between the movie itself and the soundtrack with the commercially viable (i.e. money making songs), are an underappreciated art form which thankfully Baz Luhrmann and Nellee Hooper helped to show that this need no longer need be the case which has resulted in at least the release of two outstanding scores from contemporary movies: The Matrix Reloaded and Fight Club.
While Star Wars wills always be the score that all others will be measured up to, the genius of Baz and Nellee will help to change the face of this.
Helped by the fact that even if one did not see this version of the film, since most know the story, one can follow all the twists and turns in the plot solely by listening to this CD.
How they have changed the face of scores forever is by incorporating different musical generals (hip hop #3, pop #10, rock #13, and techno #21) which given the scene we heard them in in the film, not only are appropriate, but adds another dimension to the film which draws you in even more.
What is even more remarkable is that this was produced in 1996, prior to the rap/rock mixture and before it looked like techno was poised to become the next big thing.
Genius is not only doing something very well, genius is also doing something that has very rarely been done before; and Luhrman and Hooper showed with volume 2 that the term genius could be applied to them.

4 out of 5 stars Pitch Perfect Score.......2006-02-25

The score to Romeo + Juliet is perfection to say the least, for it captures the pure essence that is the film, that is the story, that is the feel you get while watching the film unfold before you. With the addition of the beautiful instrumental version of Des'rees haunting "Kissing You" and the Ballroom, or Techo version of "Young Hearts run Free" as well as Quindon Tarver's (boy can this kid belt it out) cover of Prince's "When Dove's Cry" you will see that this is more than just a theatrical score. My only beef here is that these three tracks were not better placed on Vol. 1 and the Vol. 2 stuck with the score and the score alone. It would have added to a more fluent ride, and it would have been nice to have all the sung tracks together so you only had to rely on one CD for that. That's it, that's my only complaint. Some have complained becasuse of the inserts of spoken word over some of the score but I welcome it for it adds to the feel you get when watching the brilliant adaptation!

5 out of 5 stars The NV Review.......2006-02-24

This soundtrack is a wonderful way of celebrating the movie "Romeo and Juliet." The soundtrack was wonderful and I highly suggest if you like classical and vocal music, that you should buy this CD. I didn't like the movie pieces in the soundtrack. When you listen to the songs there are a few interuptions of the actors and actresses speaking during the song. All in all I really enjoy it!
