I bought this when the movie came out, and I am totally satisfied. There are some really good songs, most of which have a swing flair to them, by a wide variety of artists. Some of my favorites are:

HI DE HO by K7 - K7 is normally a freestyle artist, and I guess this song is still freestyle, but there is a definate swing/big band flavor in this song. I really like it, and I think it's really catchy. HEY PACHUCO by ROYAL CROWN REVIEW - This is an awesome upbeat song with some great instrumentals. The intro is upbeat and adrenalizing, and this whole song gets you pumped up. The only confusing part is the whole tempo change in the song, but other than that it's perfect. THE BUSINESS OF LOVE by DOMINO - This is a very sexy jazz/blues song that I personally think is the best on here. The vocal style in which it is sung makes it sound even better.

So, overall, this is a great soundtrack with some pretty interesting material. I'd definately buy it. If you are hesitant (Because some of the songs are a bit different), then just buy it used.

I loved The Mask. Jim Carrey was fantastic in it. I loved the music in the movie. All the songs from the movie and more are on this hit soundtrack.

I like hearing Jim Carrey sing. He does Cuban Pete in it. He did Cuban Pete in the movie with that funny dance scene. Carrey actually has a decent voice and as one of his fans I enjoyed hearing him sing.

This soundtrack has a mix of famous groups and people. Vannesa Williams, Harry Connick Jr., Brian Setzer Orchestra to name just a few.

Fans of swing will really get a kick out of this. You'll like Hey Pacuco and Cuban Pete. It's got some great horn work on the soundtrack.

I love this cd. If you liked The Mask, you'll like this soundtrack. It's a fun mix of music that makes me want to watch the movie every time I hear it.

My 13 yr old daughter (a dancer) introduced me to this CD. The songs are are so "up" -- it gets my motor running!

What can I say about the mask, hmm..... Well, for one thing, it is my absolute favorite movie of all time! After seeing it 138 times,(no lie!) I have practically memorized all the songs. And, I'm not exactly the biggest fan of waiting for that one part in the movie to listen to a particular song! I am however a huge fan of the soundtrack! Because, I can listen to each of these great hits without watching the movie! I rate this CD 5 out of 5 stars! Jim Carrey was a fantastic actor in the movie and, he had a pretty good voice on the soundtrack! Who knew? BUY THIS CD!!! JIM CARREY ROXZ!

This CD is just really, really fun! From Jim Carrey's hilarious rendition of Cuban Pete to Vanessa Williams slow, jazzy "You Would Be My Baby," the album has one entertaining song after another. Even if you didn't like the movie or never saw it, the soundtrack is well worth having. Other highlights are the catchy "I Could Only Whisper Your Name" and all the big band music. The movie may not have been great, but the soundtrack rocks. :)

For me, it's the best soundtracks ever with just amazing jazz/swing type of songs with one hip hop beat from K7 with Hi-De-Ho. Harry Connick's "Whisper Your Name" is an amazing jazz funk song, as well as "The Business of Love" by the Domino. Brian Setzer's up-tempo jazz blues with "Straight Up" is also a great one to listen to. And of course, the star of the movie, Jim Carrey does it really well with the opening and ending songs, Cuban Pete.

I am always disappointed when I buy a soundtrack that has been re-recorded, especially by different artists than were in the movie version. That's what happened here. Why not leave well enough alone or make sure the cover lets the buyer know it has been re-recorded. The music was okay but didn't have the excitement that came in the movie music.

I got a good price for a "used-like new" the Mask soundtrack, and when I opened the package and saw cd case broke a little I was ok with it since I only paid $3.37 but to find back of cd was cracked in 2 places is the reason for my negative review.

This is an awesome soundtrack. It is fun and enjoyable to listen to. The best songs on this soundtrack are all of them

I had lost my original copy,and so purchased this one. The product and the transaction were great. Thank you
