Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com

This follow-up collection of "music from and inspired by" the WB network's successful teen witch-with-a-family-twist series offers up a compelling, distaff spin on the first volume's contemporary mix of pop and rock, gathering together 11 all-female tracks, an eclectic mix that spans the diversity of The Donnas' rousing rock opener "Take It Off" and a beat-savvy remix of Broadway-cum-Vegas diva Sarah Brightman's "Free." Its other disparate, yet inviting corners feature signature performances from alt.divas Liz Phair (the gritty "Take A Look" from her eponymous fourth album), Vanessa Carlton and Aussie newcomer Missy Higgins, a shimmering remix of Sarah McLachlan's emotive classic "Fallen," Shivaree's spooky "I Close My Eyes" and the deliciously haunting "House" by Zero 7—though teen-pop lip-sync queen Ashlee Simpson's sugary "Pieces of Me" can't rise above its slinky David Garcia and High Spies remix. --Jerry McCulley

4.0 out of 5 stars For: hockeygirl537 "Kristina", August 2, 2006

This review is from: Charmed: The Book of Shadows (Audio CD)

The Charmed theme song is a Smith's song named "How Soon is Now?" from their album "Meat is Murder". However, it is sung here by Richard Butler from Love Spit Love (formerly of the Psychedelic furs). You can find their two albums here on Amazon.

5.0 out of 5 stars Charmed Part 2, April 20, 2005

By

This review is from: Charmed: The Book of Shadows (Audio CD)

The first charmed soundtrack had its fair share of ups and downs and so does this new one but the majority of the songs are very good. If you enjoyed or didn't enjoy the first album you should still give this a shot because it has a different formula: female only singersnand includes remixes. Also included on the disc was a weblink to a exclusive charmed web site that has information on the cast and the bands featured on the album. Top tracks: liz phair, the donnas, and dido.
