I don't care what anyone says, I thought "Eight Crazy Nights" was a really good movie with humor and heart. It also had some really great songs, which were all written by Adam Sandler. For those who are long time Sandler fans, you'll know that besides just doing funny skits or funny movies, he loves to write songs. This is a great soundtrack for you if you loved the movie and songs. With this CD, you know exactly what you're getting, so there's very little room for disappointment. You either loved the songs or hated them. I thought they're pretty catchy and funny. They are very much like the humorous songs we have heard on his albums.

While it's a very short soundtrack, it is still a very enjoyable one to listen to. My favorite song has to be "technical foul." That song alone is worth the price of the album. I could listen to that one over and over again. Sandler's voices for Whitey and Eleanor are hilarious. Plus, this soundtrack also includes "the Chanukah song part 3," which is great for listening to over and over again. All of the other songs are great as well. (It even inculdes a song that did not end up in the movie, "at the mall," with Sandler as Whitey.)

The CD has a lot of extras for your PC. That's right, extras. Has more extras than some of the DVDs that are out! The extras included are the animated video for the "patch song," the movie trailer, a video message from Mr. Sandler himself, the live Meatball movie that was shown before the actual movie "Eight Crazy Nights," a 30 second NBA audio spot by Adam Sandler, "Foot Soak" and "Kung-Fu" flash animations, and 2 screen savers. Wow, that's a lot of extras for a CD. So that pretty much makes up for the album being short.

"Eight Crazy Nights" is a very entertaining soundtrack, even with only having 8 songs. If you loved the songs in the movie, then get this album. You know what you're getting yourself into when you purchase this CD at least. Great songs, great singing, and great extras. Adam Sandler is an awesome song writer. I am very happy with this purchase.

This is what Adam Sandler was made for. He made one of the funniest movies of 2002. How does this man make up all these hilarious songs and do most of the chachter's in the movie. This is a wonderful CD packed with the great songs from the movie. I think it is well worth the 10 or so bucks to get and i promise you will laugh so much when listening to this. Adam is awesome!!!!!!!

The soundtrack to Adam Sandler's EIGHT CRAZY NIGHTS is a high-charged, hilarious romp through the eight nights that make up Chanukah, the Festival of Lights. The album feels like a toned downed version of some of Sandler's previous comedy albums, but set to music.

My particluar favorites on the album are:

"Davey's Song"

"Long Ago"

"The Chanukah Song (Part Three)"

"Davey's Song" is actually quite depressing, but memorable and melodic nevertheless. "Long Ago" is a romantic love song that gets interrupted by a sudden tragedy. And of course, "The Chanukah Song (Part Three)" is the next part to Sandler's most famous holiday song. The album does contain some foul language, and because of that isn't quite family friendly. However, if you have a warped sense of humor or a fan of Sandlers, you will probably enjoy the soundtrack.

...I thought Eight Crazy Nights was great. It wasn't filled with potty humor, and the songs are pretty funny. My two favorite songs would definitely Bum Biddy and Long Ago.

For those of you that think this movie is unfunny, you obviously haven't seen Adam Sandler's mind-numbing appearance in Punch Drunk Love. His character Barry Egan was so pathetic and boring. It is unmistakable that Adam Sandler is a comedian, so why would he try a romantic film?
Having said that, I think Eight Crazy Nights is hilariously funny, but this is not really a kid's movie, but more of a cartoon for adults. It is a nice holiday movie, Sandler's first animated movie, but hopefully not his last. It was also the first real movie to focus on the Jewish holiday of Hanukah. This movie I think is very underrated. The music, animation, and the added vocals of Alison Krauss for the singing voice of Jennifer was a nice touch.

This cd should be called another Sandler album, rather that just a soundtrack. Yes, it includes all of the songs from "8 Crazy Nights," so, in that sense it is a soundtrack... but all of the songs are written and performed by Adam Sandler. They do include other people, but so do songs from his other albums. So, in that sense it should also be called a Sandler album. Call it both... but anyway, this is a very good cd, short (only 8 songs), but the songs are great.

The most memorable songs include:

"Davey's Song"
"Technical Foul"
"Bum Biddy"
"Chanukah Song, Part 3"

Wether you collect Soundtracks from movies, or you collect Sandler albums, this cd deserves a spot in your collection.

The soundtrack for "Eight Crazy Nights" is very funny and very sweet. The songs are fun to listen to and the Chanukah song is a nice addition to Sandler's first two. My favorite song would have to be "Bum Biddy".

i loved this cd, and the movie, i think, is the funniest movie this year! you gotta buy this cd! even if you didnt see the movie!

How many remakes of the "Chanukah Song" do we have to endure! I never liked the song in the first place simply because it really isn't funny. I only saw the movie because it was so overly promoted that I anticipated it would be something great, which it was not. Were the producers in a hurry to get this out for Chanukah? The Christophopic overtones is outragious and it simply was not funny!
