Free Music Notes for Smallville, Vol. 2: Metropolis MixFree Music Review: Great songs from a great show Hit: 4 Stars
I bought this disc after reading other reviews and as most people said, it is a fine disc. An eclectic mix of musical styles and a well produced CD.
Free Music Review: Cd Purchase Hit: 4 Stars
I like this CD. Music from the show that I wanted. It even has interactive CD Rom stuff. Great for the Smallville fan.
Free Music Review: Well, it could have been better... Hit: 3 Stars
The best word to describe this album is "OK." The show Smallville itself is fantastic. The first Smallville soundtrack, The Talon Mix, is very nearly perfection in a CD. It uses great songs from the alternative genre to musically portray the overall mood of the show. This album does not. A few of the songs are good, but the majority are mediocre to horrible.
Only about five are good. These are Lifehouse's You and Me, Stereophonic's Superman (although they drop the f-bomb, a word I would never associate with the show), Brendan Benson's Cold Hands, Him's Wicked Games, and KT Tunstall's Other Side of the World.
One of the most raved about songs on this album, Breaking Benjamin's Forget It, starts out with promise, but soon falls apart and just didn't work for me as a song. The rest of the songs are really, really boring, whether from being played over and over again on the radio (Precious, Almost Honest), from being repetitive (Hungry Heart), from having an annoying tune (The Girl's Attractive, I'm a Human, All the Money or the Simple Life Honey), or from just being horrible bands with horrible songs (All American Rejects, Rascal Flatts). Why would they put a country song on this album?
With all of the great music the show utilizes, it wouldn't be hard to make another great album. If you want a great Smallville album, check out the Talon Mix instead.
Free Music Review: Smallville Music Volume 2 Hit: 3 Stars
At the moment I am a huge Smallville fan, so naturally, I bought the music. Althouth I ordered both at the same time (which I recommend) this one came first. I like the music, but it does not have the feel of the show. There are about 4 songs on it that I really loved, and I was a little disapointed by the cd insert, but overall I am very happy with the purchase.
I would recommend any fan of the show should get it.
Free Music Review: Missing Song Hit: 3 Stars
I should give 5 stars and I would have if they never had a song missing. I've checked the list on vol 1 to 2 and the song that is missing is "Deeper Water" by Minnie Driver. This song was played when Chloe is talking to Clark and said to him "if you ever want to talk..." so I hope this song will be in volume 3.
