Maybe you can't find your Olivia Newton-John Physical album or don't want to get caught cranking the Jane Fonda Workout video, in which case the new Peyton Reed comedy about two rival cheerleading teams features a perfect soundtrack to get your butt bustin' a move in short order and in modern style. This breezy collection serves as a showcase for the many hip-hop R&B vocal groups currently on the Sony Music roster (Blaque, B*Witched, and Sygnature). Dublin's youthful teen group B*Witched revive and update Toni Basil's one-hit wonder, the cheerleader anthem "Mickey," while TLC's Lisa "Left Eye" Lopez's protégés Blaque contribute two versions of "As If" and a remix of "Bring It All to Me." Old-school New York City trio the Jungle Brothers add a Mardi Gras groove to "Freakin' You." Lauren Mayhew, who plays Marra on the afternoon soap Guiding Light, leads her group P.Y.T. with "Anywhere U.S.A," a blend of hip-hop beats and mainstream pop appeal. --Rob O'Connor

2.0 out of 5 stars It's not what this CD has, it's what it DOESN'T., August 30, 2000

This review is from: Bring It On (2000 Film) (Audio CD)

Let me say immediately that I loved this movie. I liked it so much I went back...and back...and back. And it was after my first viewing on opening night that I ran to my local Wal-Mart and bought the soundtrack. I was so dissapointed.

Is the CD worth buying? Absolutely. The music is high energy and diverse, and Blaque's "As If" conjures up both smooth grooves and wonderful memories (particularly of one wonderful scene) of the movie. But on the relatively conservative 13 tracks (two of which are simply second versions--not remixes--of previously released or performed songs), the negatives with this soundtrack become clear.

It's not what this CD has, it's what it doesn't. And what it doesn't have is quite a lot of the great music in the film.

Great comedy soundtracks have found many ways to feature their material...from quips and punchlines from the film (the "this is not a democracy...it's a cheerocracy" line would have been perfect) as well as the novelty songs performed by characters in the films. What would the TRICK soundtrack be without Tori Spelling's over-the-top performance of "Enter You" or THE BRADY BUNCH MOVIE's "Greg Brady's" "Clowns Never Laughed Before" and the various Brady songs? No such luck here. The incredible "Torrance: You're Just What I Need" song which is used not only in a key scene in the film, but also again as part of the competition is completely absent from the soundtrack.

But this movie is about a lot more than comedy and live performances. (Forgive me for not knowing the titles and artists of some of these), but there is a great song "Do you Wanna go My Way?" during the Spirit Stick scene -- not there. Missy practices to "A Groovy Kind of Way" a high energy make you smile song, prominently featured -- not there. 2 Unlimited's classic "Get Ready for This" is featured SEVERAL times very prominently in the film -- not there. The very poignant, alt-y sounding love score -- not there.

Most aggregiously (sp?) absent, though, are the INCREDIBLE remixes featured during the competition scenes. They were the heart and soul of the film, and so finely crafted and entertaining and a dominating signature aspect of the last 20 minutes of the movie. I haven't been so jazzed since my time as an NCA All-American. They don't appear in any shape or form on the soundtrack.

What is there are the long versions of some of the songs sampled in those remixes (not as entertaining as the mix itself), a carbon copy 2 versions of Blaque's "As If" (one featuring *NSYNCer Joey Fatone and one minus Fatone) and a version of "Bring it All to Me" minus J.C. Chasez and replaced by 50 CENT. These got repetitive and old (no matter how great the songs are) when I began to itch for the songs actually featured in the film.

Overall, nice, pleasant, album with high-energy music. BUT THIS IS NO SOUNDTRACK, not in any true sense of the word. No score (it was a great one, too), no original songs (despite there being a great one featured 2x in the film), and at least 5 songs prominently featured in the film consipicuously absent.

Hey, forewarned is forearmed.

2.0 out of 5 stars Rufus King is Just What You Need, April 16, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Bring It On (2000 Film) (Audio CD)

The songs I loved in the movie were not the ones that ended up on the soundtrack. This CD is a collection of JockJams, without great songs by Sum41 and Mest that you hear in the movies. I was really looking for the song "Just What I Need" that is written for Torrance in the movie. ...

2.0 out of 5 stars Missing song information, October 3, 2004

In case anyone else is looking for it, the song that's playing during the stolen cheer (the one that begins with "Brr, it's cold in here") is The 900 # by The 45 King. It's too bad they left it off the soundtrack!
