Free Music Review: Only Half of the Soundtrack
Hit: 3 Stars
I caught the film "Across the Universe" recently, and while not a perfect film I did enjoy it. I also appreciated the 30+ covers of Beatle songs by various artists, and thus was greatly disappointed to find that the soundtrack only contains 16 songs! Granted, some of the songs appear in the movie only as snippets, but I would have loved it if the album were assembled as a "rock opera" with all of the music included. I'm almost sure that the reason why only 16 songs were included on the album was because the Powers That Be want everyone to purchase the DVD when it comes out (shame on them). Among the omissions: Hold Me Tight (cast members), With A Little Help From My Friends (cast), Why Don't We Do It In The Road (Dana Fuchs), If I Fell (Evan Rachel Wood), I Want You (She's So Heavy) (cast), Dear Prudence (cast), Being For The Benefit Of Mr. Kite (Eddie Izzard), Because (cast), Revolution (Jim Sturgess, While My Guitar Gently Weeps (Martin Luther), Don't Let Me Down (Dana Fuchs), All You Need Is Love (cast), and A Day in The Life (instrumental by Jeff Beck). I thought the majority of covers were well done with some really good arrangements. I'm just sorry that the record company did not have the confidence to release a more complete soundtrack.
