Free Music Notes for The Life Aquatic Studio Sessions
Free Music Review: From a Bowie fan
Hit: 5 Stars
I want to start by saying that i am a big fan of Bowies early stuff, which all of these songs are from. That said, i dont think that that limits this music to only Bowie fans, though it doesnt hurt. These acoustic versions of these Bowie classics are great because he has stripped it down to the bare melody, and it being in Portuguese brings the music to a different level, which makes it impossible to even compare to the originals.
I originally bought the Life Aquatic soundtrack specifically for these songs, but was disappointed to find that not all the songs from the movie were on it. The rest of the soundtrack is good, but these were, to me, one of the most beautiful aspects of the movie. So i recommend this to anybody, because i personally am very happy with it. But i can understand how it wouldnt be some peoples thing.
Free Music Review: Amazing
Hit: 5 Stars
I personally am not a big David Bowie fan. I am not a fan of any late seventies/ 80's music at all. But when these electronic melodies are put to acoustic guitar and translated to Jorge's native Portugese, they are some of my favorite songs of all time.Free Music Review: Sue Jorge

Good CD, not enough tracks, I end up listening to it over and over and over again (half on purpose and half on accident) Free Music Review: Seu Jorge
Hit: 3 Stars
Seu Jorge's complete set of David Bowie covers for the Life Aquatic Soundtrack is a decent cd. It covers fourteen songs; the soundtrack only has five.
Those five were probably the best of the bunch and were chosen for a reason to be in the movie. The remaining nine "bonus" songs you get on this CD are nice if you're a big fan of Seu's.
Otherwise, I would say stick to the soundtrack only. Seu + solo guitar for this many tracks kind of gets repetitive after awhile. However, it's still nice, cool, mellow music.
Free Music Review: fascinating
Hit: 4 Stars
I'm told some fellow has recorded these songs in English. I wonder how well they translate from the Portuguese. Great stuff, this.
