2.0 out of 5 stars Where's Gerry? Where are the actual soundtrack numbers?, January 5, 2008

By	Dorothy Murphy (Illinois) - See all my reviews

First - the movie is fantastic! Everyone is perfect in their roles, the Irish landscape is breathtaking, and Gerry Butler steals the show as always with his talent, charm, and charisma. I've seen the movie several times, so far, and can't wait to buy that DVD!

His songs are mostly the best parts of the movie (along with another very memorable Gerry moment) - so where are those numbers on the "soundtrack?" Gerry's "Love You to the End", "Mustang Sally", "Galway Girl", and the song sung at the wake-called Gerry Kennedy's favorite, with the priest joining in on the words (hilarious)- those numbers, and "If I Ever Get Out of This World Alive" were the reason I intended to buy this CD. I won't be buying it with only one of the best songs from the movie.
Can we say: S O U N D T R A C K ? We want Gerry...and the rest of the songs from the movie.

3.0 out of 5 stars Where's Gerry and the Pogues?, January 5, 2008

By	R. Kyle (USA) - See all my reviews (TOP 100 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)

I love this movie and I love the music, but the soundtrack is lacking. First of all, the wake song, "Fairytale of New York" by the Pogues is, is omitted. The soundtrack is not complete without this song.

And where are Gerry's songs? I've got "Galway Girl" on another CD with Steve Earle and I thought that was THE version. So, I was wrong.

The CD is not bad, but it could have been great if they'd included all the music from the movie.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great music for movie but is missing songs, December 31, 2007

By	Judy K. Polhemus "Book Collector" (LA) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)

As a Gerard Butler fan, I bought the CD in anticipation of the movie. I expected to come home and write a great review for the CD. However, I am SO disappointed. Where are Gerry's songs? For that matter, where is Hilary's song? Despite what Harry Connick Jr. told her, she did sing well. Oh, listen to me, I am rambling on. Disappointment does that to a person.

Let me deal with what fans have been dealt: this particular CD with these particular artists. It's not their fault. I have several favorites:

"Carousel,"Laura Izibor--love her bluesy/jazzy voice
"Fortress," Hope--her voice has the right melancholy
"My Sweet Song," Toby Lightman--my favorite, she sings a pure torch song
"No Other Love," Chuck Prophet--another great one, raspy voice
"If I ever leave this world alive" Flogging Molly--pure Irish

Side note: Nellie McKay, who sings the title song, plays Hilary's sister.
One national reviewer suggested Jennifer Garner would have played the role lighter. I beg to differ: Hilary Swank was perfect. Gerard Butler was perfect. Everyone was perfect, even Danny from Grey's Anatomy, who played Gerry's friend in Ireland.

I look forward to many more hours of listening pleasure from this CD. There, I'm over it. Can't wait to buy the DVD!!
