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 VincentelliCustomer Reviews:

* 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 WrightCustomer Reviews:

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.

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.

Old Singers benefit too.......2007-02-09
THanks for a great product.
great cd .......2007-01-21
only one thing i'm not feel good is i can hear the noise(like car pass the street).
Good training for your voice.......2007-01-06
Practical.......2006-09-09
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.
If out of stock please purchase above NEW on Marketplace.......2006-08-15

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 McCulleyCustomer Reviews:

Music From Kill Bill 2...........2006-10-09
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.
missing songs spoilt it for me.......2006-03-03
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 WolkCustomer Reviews:

Completes the greatest hits collection.......2007-05-15
Not so great for Madonna's fans.......2007-02-28
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.
Madonna GHV2.......2007-02-16
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.
I'm feelin these.......2006-11-18
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.

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 DurchholzCustomer Reviews:

Greatest songs of all time #2.......2006-09-09
Linda at her peak.......2005-01-08
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.
Chopped off ..........2004-09-16
* "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.

Simply Incredible.......2006-09-11
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 ^_^
Possible geniuses?.......2006-06-26
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.
