Free Music Notes for Newsies
Free Music Review: Excellent Soundtrack.....
Hit: 5 Stars
Probably one of my most favorite Soundtracks from one of my most favorite movies of all time. I didn't get to see NEWSIES until about a year ago (on video). And I loved it! The music was one of the best parts of this who film...bringing the film to life. What energetic, fun-loving music?! This is the kind of music that is easy to sing along to and makes you wanna get up and learn the dance moves from the movie so you can dance all the numbers while you listen to this Soundtrack! Allen Menken and Jack Feldman made one of the best Soundtracks ever. My personal favorite tracks on this Soundtrack are "King Of New York", "Seize The Day", "The World Will Know", "Carrying The Banner", and of course my absolute favorite, Christian Bale's solo, "Santa Fe". And this is the real thing, too...it's not some recorded voices, it's actually all the actors singing these wonderful, unforgettable songs. If you loved the movie, NEWSIES, than this is a Soundtrack you must get. It's worth every penny (and hey, it's cheap here on Amazon.com, too...so not a bad deal!). It's definitely a must-have.Free Music Review: It's a fine life...

...when this soundtrack finally came out! Accompanying with the even better Disney DVD, Newsies has brought joy to thousands of fans. In case you don't know the story already, Newsies is about the New York newsboys strike of 1899 against Joseph Pulitzer and William Randolph Hearst. The songs are incredible, with catchy tunes and unbelievable lyrics! This CD is most likely to be spinning in your player at least once a day. I have to put a lot of emphasis on the lyrics here because they contain very sharp/witty/humourous lines. Here's an example from "Once and For All":Five thousand fists in the sky
Five thousand reasons to try
We're going over the wall
Better to die than to crawl
Either we stand or we fall
For once, once and for all
Among the songs, the best are Carrying the Banner (the Newsies' anthem), The World Will Know, King of New York, ONce and For All. But of course the show stopper number here is Christian Bale's solo in Santa Fe--everyone's favorite.
Free Music Review: No words can describe how much I love this movie
Hit: 5 Stars
When I first rented this film, I was going through my "The Mighty Ducks" phase. I was searching on the internet about it and I came a across this site that was inspired by aaron lohr (Mush in Newsies) I was like "wut the heck..." so I check it out and there was a bunch of people talking about how much they loved the mighty ducks and newsies so I decided to rent newsies and find out wut the fuss was about. it turns out that this has become one of my favorite movies/musicals EVER! I fell in love with it and watched it everday.
Every single day for about 5 months, I would sit in class, waiting for the long day to be over so I could go home and watch Newsies. It shows Disney at its best and reminds the way they did things around the 90's. its a shame Disney doesn't make movies they way they use to. I just hope one day I could make a production like that and bring back the good old days.
so my advice is to buy this soundtrack and movie! RIGHT NOW!!
Free Music Review: Really wonderful and educational
Hit: 5 Stars
So, I love this movie. I mean come on, young men singing and dancing in the streets. Really, who could ask for more? My only regret is that they are to young for me. *Sigh* It's the singing I love, really. The songs are actually really amazing, brings back memories of when Disney was worth listening to. The Newsies is by far wonderful, the talent is outstanding, where are most of these boys now? Why aren't they all still around? If you buy this soundtrack you won't regret it. Also, for any teachers out there, while yes a musical, the movie as well as the songs would fit into a class learning about turn of the century America pretty well. The fact that it is younger kids will allow for the students to connect with the chracters much better then with adults. The songs are very uplifting, but still paint an accurate depiction of what life was like for children back then. Also, it really happened! So, yeah, buy it already.Free Music Review: My CD is getting worn

My kids and I love listening to this when we travel (which we've been doing a lot of lately). We already love the movie, the CD is just pure singing fun. My 5yo daughter especially-- she asks to listen to this whenever we're in the car. Even my 2yo daughter has memorized some of the lines! And, singing this keeps me awake when I'm driving at night.
I don't know how some reviewers could say that Christian Bale has an off-key voice. I've been singing in the choir for years, and his voice sounded fine to me-- especially considering that he was a teen when he sang this, and his voice was undoubtedly changing. Anyway, these are supposed to be teenage boys or younger playing street kids, some of them having never been recorded in their life. They're not supposed to sound like the Vienna Boy's Choir (although the acappella segment of the reprise of "Seize the Day" comes close).
