My main reason for even considering to purchase this CD is the song "Fall Again". This song, originally written and sung by Micheal Jackson, moves me like no other. Glen Lewis did an excellent cover of this song, his version is 100 times better than MJ's. The song was perfetly matched with the scene in the movie and when I saw that scene i knew i had to have this song. Glen Lewis is truly an underrated singer and I hope that I see more of his stuff on the market soon.

If you saw the movie you need to buy the soundtrack (if not just for the song "I'm Coming Out"). The movie was awesome and the soundtrack is great! It has two different singers singing "I'm Coming Out" and both are good. I was a little disappointed that Jennifer Lopez didn't have a song on the CD but oh well, it's still good. BUY IT!! WATCH THE MOVIE!!

This soundtrack has everything! Classicals (Pointer Sisters, Diana Ross), Soul (Glenn Lewis), R & B (Kelly Rowland, Amerie) and Instrumentals. Alan Silvestri (Back to the Future) is standing for perfect instrumental music and 'Maid in Manhattan' and 'At Last' are incredible. Glenn Lewis has a great performance with 'Full Again' and Kelly Rowland is better on her own than with Destinys Child together. Newcomers like Norah Jones and Daniel Bedingfield are also on this CD and Amerie, Teena Marie, RES, Eva Cassidy, Bread and Paul Simon make it complete!

Why can't i give 6 or 7 stars?

This is by far one of the best soundtracks out there this holiday season. It is a completely feel-good album, just like the movie. I totally recommend this soundtrack to anyone, even if you haven't seen the movie!

great cd!! FYI-the Glenn Lewis "Fall Again" track is also a demo on Michael Jackson's Ultimate Collection, two great versions!!!

The movie took a while to catch on in the hearts of J.Lo's fans, but this soundtrack hits the mark from the first spin. All the oldies like Bread's THE GUITAR MAN and Paul Simon's ME AND JULIO DOWN BY THE SCHOOLYARD, which made the movie memorable, are here along with a nice remake of I'm Coming Out by Amerie. Of course the cd would not have been complete without Diana Ross' original version. Glenn Lewis sings a powerful and stirring rendition of the love ballad, FALL AGAIN, which was featured during the most romantic scene in the film, and this song is on repeat on my cd player since it's so smooth and easy to enjoy. I see it's a favorite of other reviewers here as well. Norah Jones' COME AWAY WITH ME is also a welcomed track which never fails to evoke tender feelings each time I hear it. This is a fine soundtrack and I highly recommend it for your listening pleasure.

'fall again' by glenn lewis is enough reason for anyone to buy this album. i practically listened to the song twenty times per day since the last 4-5 months and yet.. i still get the shivers everytime.. norah jones and daniel beddingfield - they will move you as well.

The soundtrack made this movie ESP. Glenn Lewis' "Fall Again". When Ralph looked into J Lo's eyes during that scene I got goosebumps! Everytime I listen to that song I think of Ralph's blue eyes and I am solid gone. Great mix of familiar, lighthearted oldies. Loved the Norah Jones track as well-so romantic! Chic flick, chic CD!!

This CD has it all. After I saw the movie twice and heard the song by Glenn Lewis, I just had to have the CD. I didn't care for Amerie's version of "I'm coming out" considering how great the original version is (and that it is on the same CD). This is now one of my favorites. I like all of the songs, even the instrumentals on the album. They add the perfect touch to a great soundtrack.

I got this CD because of the Glen Lewis song. Now, because of the broad mix of music, including the instrumentals, it has become my favorite.
