Free Music Notes for Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog
Free Music Review: Dr. Horrible is far from horrible...
Hit: 5 Stars
You'll laugh! You'll cry! You'll sing along! "Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog" is a good reason why writer's strikes should occur more often.
Joss Whedon, creator of "Buffy the Vampire Slayer", "Firefly" and various other cult favorites, drafted up this little gem while on hiatus during the writer's strike. Even if you're not a fan of Whedon's, the songs are insanely catchy and Neil Patrick Harris is awesome as always as the title character a.k.a. "Billy".
Nathan Fillion stars as Captain Hammer, Dr. Horrible's nemesis. He will stop at nothing to annoy Dr. Horrible, from thwarting his evil plans to trying to steal the girl of his dreams, Penny, (Felicia Day). Penny spends her time trying to get people to sign a petition to help the homeless. Dr. Horrible's main goal is just the opposite, of course: to get into the Evil League of Evil. And to possibly hook up with Penny somehow in the process.
Dr. Horrible spends his days working on a device that will help him bring down Captain Hammer for good, which will hopefully also gain him entrance into the ELE at the same time. He also spends a lot of time in the laundromat, washing his clothes but really trying to chat up Penny. The jokes in this film are golden, like when Penny tells Billy that Captain Hammer is on his way over to the laundromat and Billy looks at his wrist where his watch should be and exclaims, "wow, look at my wrist! I've gotta go!" Another great moment is when Captain Hammer clarifies for Billy just what the "Hammer" in his name actually is.
Dr. Horrible will stop at nothing to be in the ELE. But will it cost him in the end? And what will become of Captain Hammer? Will Dr. Horrible finally have his victory?
Because this is a "sing-along blog", the soundtrack would have to be something of mention...and it is.
"My Eyes" is a very strong track. If you have never heard NPH do Broadway or sing at all, you will be blown away by his vocal talents in this strong. Day has a pretty voice, but it's a bit flat and kind of reminds you of the girl who sings the "Portal" theme song.
"Brand New Day" is another great song. Captain Hammer has just whisked Penny away and Dr. Horrible sings about how he will destroy him.
"My Freeze Ray" is very cute. Billy sings about how he'll stop the world with his freeze ray and make Penny fall in love with him.
"Everyone's a Hero", Captain Hammer's solo, is a bit annoying but that's probably because his character is supposed to be irritating.
"So They Say" is a comical track--you will be singing "we do the weird stuff!" for a while after hearing this.
"Slipping" and "Everything You Ever" are touching, resonating tracks, especially the latter.
To avoid possible spoilers though, you should probably check out the film before listening to the soundtrack.
