When I heard the song Te Busco at the end of the movie, I thought it was one of the most beautiful songs I had ever heard. The lyrics and Celia soulful sound will bring a tear of joy or happines to your eye. Te Busco was what I had to do to find the song and I found it finally in Celia Cruz' album Azucar Negra. It is not in this album.

I'm glad I read the other reviewer's comments before I bought this CD and found out that Te Busco is not on the soundtrack of Lantana. If you are looking for this song by Celia Cruz, it is on a CD called Azucar Negra, which is coming out around August 27, 2001. This is the track listing.
1. Azucar Megra
2. Amores De Un Dia
3. Sazon
4. Pasaporte Latinoamericano
5. De La Habana Hasta Aqui
6. Ochun Con Chango
7. Bolero, Bolero
8. Que Suenen Las Palmas
9. Te Busco
10. Cruz De Navajas

I never expected or wanted to hear the salsa tunes, but I love hearing Australian icon Paul Kelly (with band) improvise around a theme. The music is haunting, although the arrangements are not as sparse as what you hear in the film. Better as background music than something you want to concentrate on- it meanders around a fair bit. SALSA FANS: there was a promo CD released to movie critics in the USA with both the Paul Kelly material and the Latin songs. One is for sale on ebay as I write this. Suggest you all look for that CD.

I could care less about the latin songs, this is hands down one of the best soundtracks ever. All through the movie, whenever that musical theme came up again I kept thinking "wow, I hope I can get ahold of this music!" It took a little hunting, being an import and all. But this is *fantastic* instrumental music.

I saw the movie and loved the music especially the latin songs. I assumed that these songs would be on the CD. I returned the CD. Where could a find a CD or get a list of the latin songs played in this movie?

I would like to know why the latin songs were not included in the soundtrack? Where do I find a list of the songs and artists that were in the movie?

I loved the soundtrack. Wonderful original music! I am glad the salsa music did not make it into the soundrrack. However since Te Busco by Celia Cruz was played in its entirety, seemed practical that the song would be included in the soundtrack. Thanks so other reviews found here, I purchased Azucar Negra by Celia Cruz that feaures Te Busca so now I have the best of Lantana!

Very disapoointed we thought we were getting the soundtrack from the movie but NONE of the songs featured in the movie were on this CD
The original order we placed was lost in the mail so this added to our dissapointment

It reminds me of another artist/band (which coincidently has a similiar name to the film)out there called LANTERNA--more fantastic "desert scape" ambient music.

I couldn't wait to find the soundtrack for this film and was thrilled to know it existed--rather than having to hunt down each track elsewhere. Good stuff, Menard!

If you want to hear the wonderful Latin songs from the movie, it ain't here. This overpriced collection has an endless and boring music collection by one Mr. Kelly. Does anyone know where I can find those Latin songs?
