5.0 out of 5 stars One of the best soundtracks I own, February 5, 2000

This is a great soundtrack from a great movie, with quite an eclectic mix of music. It's rare to find a CD with the likes of Bonnie Raitt, Chet Baker, Fluke, PJ Harvey, and John Barry side by side, but this CD has all that and more, and somehow it all flows well. All the songs are great but the best (in my opinion) are "Drinking in L.A.", "Lover's Will", "Cigarettes Will Kill You", "Remembering Chet", "Tijuana Lady", and "Been Around the World". There's something here for everybody, and people who buy this CD for one specicfic artist are bound to be happily introduced to new artists and music styles they never thought they'd like--that's been my experience.

I like this CD a lot. I picked it up at a used CD store after having seen the movie, not expecting much of anything, and was pleasantly surprised. Overall, it's got a laid back vibe, but it's pensive somehow at the same time. Nice music for a rainy Sunday. Normally, lyrics are what sell me on a track, but the bulk of these tracks kind of just lull you into a mood rather than force you to take them literally. My favorites are "Drinking in LA", because it's just got an enjoyable tune, more electronic than I generally like, but Bran Van 3000 (the first I've heard of this group) makes it work. Also there's "Cigarettes will Kill You" which is the ultimate metaphor for getting in a relationship you intuitively know will just break you in the end. It's a great track by a guy named Ben Lee, whose CDs I'll have to check out in the future. In sum, good CD. See the movie, too.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Soundtrack, July 30, 2000

This soundtrack is great. I originally bought it because Ed Kowalczyk sang on it. Of course, I love the track "Walk into This Room." It is just beautiful. Some of my other favorites on this soundtrack are "Cigarettes Will Kill You," and "Porcelain." This soundtrack really compliments the movie. You can see different aspects of the characters in the songs.
