Free Music Notes for Amelie: Original Soundtrack Recording Album
Free Music Review: It's a good reminder to watch the movie
Hit: 3 Stars
I guess the fact that I haven't bought many soundtracks (if any) played a part in not knowing what to expect from this soundtrack - or if maybe I expected too much. It makes sense that the songs from a movie (not sure if they were made specifically for the movie, but it'd make sense) aren't terrific as stand-alone songs when listening to the cd. What I mean is that there are some good songs, La Valse D'Amelie, in particular and its variants, but it's not a cd that's just good to listen to on its own. It definitely brings to mind scenes from the movie, and if that's what a soundtrack is supposed to do, then it does a wonderful job. The songs also seem a bit too short - La Valse D'Amelie (Orchestra Version), for example, is only 2 minutes - so in that respect it leaves you hanging a bit..I'd give it three stars just for the fact that it makes me think of the fantastic movie. As a cd: eh.
