Why?,
By A Customer
This review is from: Groundhog Day: Music From The Original Motion Picture Soundtrack (Audio CD)
It is usually acceptable to add music to a soundtrack that did not originally make it to the movie, but I find it difficult to accept a product with parts missing. "You Don't Know Me" for some reason was left out of this particular CD being replaced with a guitar rendition instead. While this version is alright, I had expected the vocal version as featured in the film and was of course disappointed that it did not appear. If your looking for that song as it was played in the movie, DO NOT BUY THIS CD, it will only break your heart.

Groundhog Day CD - go back and get it right this time,
This review is from: Groundhog Day: Music From The Original Motion Picture Soundtrack (Audio CD)
This cd missed being a good soundtrack by one track, the missing one. The Ottmar Liebert instumental of "You Don't Know Me" is OK, but without the best rendition of this song that IS in the movie, that of Ray Charles, the disc doesn't ring true. I like the fact that the Rachmaninov "Variations" is included in toto along with "Phil's Song". But not including the Ray Charles take leaves a big hole in the cd, where I imagine the groundhog soundtrack burrows back in for 6 more weeks of winter.(The Ray Charles track appears on his CD entitled "Modern Country and Western Music"-a less expensive outlay than getting the Ultimate Hits Collection.)

Something's missing...,
This review is from: Groundhog Day: Music From The Original Motion Picture Soundtrack (Audio CD)
Loved the film. Loved the music so bought the CD. Still love the music but feel slightly cheated that the best song in the film 'You Don't Know Me' - the most poignant and the one with perhaps the best lyrics for Phil and his feelings for Rita - is just a quiet little instrumental version. Don't get me wrong, it's a nice version, but not at all the one that sweeps you up in the film with Ray Charles's great powerful voice and those wonderful lyrics, and really makes you feel for the characters. So it was disappointing - a bit like going to see the groundhog and finding out he's turned into a squirrel. But the rest of the CD is fun and will have you chuckling as you remember the film.
