Free Music Notes for Nightmare Revisited
Free Music Review: Rock on
Hit: 4 Stars
If you like this movie and you like rock music then you will like this album. What caught my attention was the Rise Against and Amy Lee covers, Rise Against is my favorite band and Evanescence is one of my favorites so that's all I needed. I was a little surprised though to see Walt Disney have Marilyn Manson cover a song from a children's movie.Free Music Review: A Great Twist
Hit: 4 Stars
Ever since I've seen Nightmare Before Christmas I fell in love with it and I still do love it years later. This CD gives a fan a chance to hear a different twist on the songs while still enjoying Tim Burton's work. While some songs may be liked by others that I didn't like (or vise versa) it is still a great CD to listen to.Free Music Review: Great cd but kind of lacking
Hit: 4 Stars
I liked this cd a lot, however I feel that some of the bands chosen really messed with the music. Still, I would reccomend to any Nightmare Before Christmas fans as it completes your collection.Free Music Review: Nicely Done
Hit: 4 Stars
Some of the covers were only so-so, but overall a nicely put together soundtrack.
The CD case itself was awesome, and really well done
Free Music Review: Nightmare Revisited - Ok, but not 'awesome'
Hit: 3 Stars
I was more disappointed in this newer soundtrack than the previous one which had 2 discs(the new songs on the 2nd disc). Many of the bands failed to capture the feeling of the original songs, and ended up ruining these classics.
DeVotchKa - Overture: I'm not even sure what they tried to do with this one..Sounds more like this was being played at a Mexican party.
Danny Elfman - Opening: This is more true to the classic opening, even though it's not the same narrator as the movie, and he says more than the original narrator.
Marilyn Manson - This Is Halloween: Manson actually did a pretty good job in his version of this piece.
The All-American Rejects - Jack's Lament: I like this band, but they did a terrible job on this song
Amiina - Doctor Finkelstein/In the Forest: This piece is just odd..It's not that bad, though. It's somewhat eerie. Reminds me of Edward Scissorhands a bit.
Flyleaf - What's This?: They slaughtered this song. It has no feeling similar to the original.
The Polyphonic Spree - Town Meeting Song: Reminds me of Rob Dougan when the man sings(he doesn't really fit the feeling of the song), but it is interesting when the girls sing.
The Vitamin String Quartet - Jack and Sally Montage: This was actually a nice piece to listen to.
Sparklehorse - Jack's Obsession: This one shouldn't be in the soundtrack at all..There's almost no talent or any real feeling in it at all.
Korn - Kidnap the Sandy Claws: This was an interesting piece to listen to, not too bad
Rise Against - Making Christmas: This song was pretty cool - it has a nice beat and most of the vocals are nice.
Yoshida Brothers - Nabbed: I'm not sure why this is in the soundtrack. It doesn't sound like anything that I've heard from the movie before.
Rodrigo y Gabriela - Oogie Boogie's Song: Another Mexican-style piece.
Amy Lee - Sally's Song: Lee's good at singing anything that has a sad/slow rhythm. It's a good piece for the soundtrack, enjoyable to listen to.
Montage Rjd2 - Christmas Eve: Another strange piece..Reminds me of Zombies Ate My Neighbors.
Plain White T's - Poor Jack: Not too bad. At certain parts this one is really good.
Datarock - To the Rescue: Another strange piece..Some parts are almost like 70's music.
Shiny Toy Guns - Finale/Reprise: Very creepy at the beginning, but pretty cool overall.
Danny Elfman - Closing: Not part of the movie, but interesting to listen to.
The Album Leaf - End Title: True to the original, enjoyable to listen to.
