Pretty good CD, November 17, 2002
A Kid's Review
This review is from: Lilo & Stitch: Island Favorites (Audio CD)
I waited for a long time for this CD to come out and I just got it yesterday. This is the track list: 1.Rock A Hula Baby, 2.Lahaina, 3.Blue Hawaii (by Elvis), 4.Hawaiian Roller Coaster Ride, 5.My Little Grass Shack, 6.Coconut, 7.We Make A Rainbow, 8.The Old Hawaiian Way, 9.Island in the Sun, 10.Pineapple Princess, 11.Love Me Tender (not sung by Elvis), 12.He Mele No Lilo, and 13.Aloha Oe. I listened to it and I liked tracks 1-5, "Coconut" is OK (though somewhat annoying), I didn't like "We Make a Rainbow", even though its message is good, "The Old Hawaiian Way" was pretty good, I DO NOT like "Island in the Sun" (no real reason),"Pinapple Princess" was very weird-sounding, but OK (I wouldn't want a whole album of this, though), I think "Love Me Tender" would sound better if Elvis sung it, "He Mele No Lilo" from the movie is great, and FINALLY I have a copy of "Aloha Oe" sung by Tia Carrere which they SHOULD have put on the soundtrack (even though they messed up the background and said on the back Tia "Carrera" sung it) My favorite song other than the three from the movie is "Rock A Hula Baby". Well now the truth. This, other than having a few songs from the movie, has nothing to do with Lilo & Stitch. I like the soundtrack better, but if you like Hawaiian music or would like a kid-slanted introduction to that type of music, this is a good album.
If I ever have a Luau, then I'll play this there. So If you're a big fan of the characters Lilo and Stitch, you might be disappointed with this CD. But if you're someone looking for some tropical tunes, then Rock A Hula Baby!

Better than the movie soundtrack CD, May 16, 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: Lilo & Stitch: Island Favorites (Audio CD)
Forget the movie soundtrack CD - it is basically Elvis songs. This is by far the better choice of fun and upbeat Hawaiian tunes. Kids and adults alike are sure to enjoy this CD if you loved the movie.

music fan, November 22, 2003

This review is from: Lilo & Stitch: Island Favorites (Audio CD)
this CD is better than the soundtrack...while am old enough to appreciate and remember elvis in hawaii movies, his music doesn't make you feel like you're in hawaii...this CD more closely gives the island flavor than the soundtrack...if you are looking for the "island sound" or flavor, this CD is better than the soundtrack. This CD gave impetus for me (novice afficianado Hawaiian music) to dig deeper into the traditional Hawaiian music genre. Our whole family enjoys this CD...hope you like it as much as we do.
