5.0 out of 5 stars Drop Dead Gorgeous Soundtrack does NOT Drop Dead!, July 20, 2001

By

This review is from: Drop Dead Gorgeous: Motion Picture Soundtrack (Audio CD)

This is a review for the Drop Dead Gorgeous soundtrack. This movie, along with the soundtrack, came out in 1999. I loved the movie and when watching it, there were lots of scenes where I was like " This is a really cool song! " Little did I know, 2 years later on July 17th 2001, the soundtrack would be mine!

[....]

On the the CD: There are 23 tracks, 8 of which are just clips from 9-21 seconds long. That means there are 15 " real " tracks.

I bought this for the song " Pressure Man " by The Feelers, Track 6, 4:30. This song is absolutely BRILLIANT. It is the song used when Kirsten Dunst is performing during the pageant, tap dancing. It has the best beat, good lyrics, and it will motivate you.

I wanted the song when Kirsten Dunst was dancing down the street ... a 10-20 second scene, and I didn't think it was on this. But it is! Number 20. Devils Triangle performed by Primitive Radio Gods, 2:06.

It's not over yet. Oh my. I listen to the WHOLE ALBUM, like right now writing this review, Im listening to Pressure Man. Number One by Lifeboy, Track 2, 2:57 is great, too. As well as She by Sunday Suit, track 3, 2:50, Lost Picasso by Hot Sauce Johnson, track 13, 3:13, and the Original Score RULES. It seems like such a new age song and so many instruments. It is track 18, 2:36, and composed by Mark Mothersbaugh.

Anyways, I hope I have helped you guys out there who want more info about the album. [Others]really only say how good Number One by Lifeboy is, and thats it. There is SO much more to this album, you can just fall asleep to this loving every song.

Thanks for reading! -Alex S.

PS: Listen to track 23, Last Laugh. It's 21 seconds long and a clip from the movie where one of the actresses, the one who's brother is Peter, says to the judges " You Know, the retards pants are open. " She starts lauhging on and on and snorting. IT WILL MAKE YOU LAUGH! I just keep listening to it! Hysterical!

Bye!

This review is from: Drop Dead Gorgeous: Motion Picture Soundtrack (Audio CD)

I've watched this movie quite a few times, and was always thinking of buying the soundtrack. Now, I don't like all the songs, but the ones that are on there that I like make it worth buying, because you can't get them anywhere else! The best, in my opinion: Girl That's Hip (Tim Carroll), Young American (Everything), She (Sunday Suit), and of course, Number One (Lifeboy). Ironically, the song Number One is #2 on the CD (because of a silly clip from the movie). Anyway, those songs are really great and I think it's worth it just for those four.
