4.0 out of 5 stars "Sing" has me dancin', March 27, 2004

This review is from: Sing (Audio CD)

Talk about a classic that was completely underrated when it was released! The music has energy and is a great flashback to the late 80's/early 1990. The songs,"Birthday Suit" and "You Don't Have to Ask Me Twice" are reminiscent of so many of the songs that I enjoyed while dancing the night away. "What's the Matter With Love" and "One More Time" are my favorites. And if anyone is in search of a song for a graduation ceremony, you couldn't find anything better than "We'll Never Say Goodbye" (that is, if you are still caught up in the 80's).

I have to admit, the energy of this album makes this perfect when it comes to picking up the pace while walking. So, if you are looking for a memory rush and need something to make that exercise go a little faster, buy "Sing".

5.0 out of 5 stars "Sing" Soundtrack Review, March 8, 2009

This review is from: Sing (Audio CD)

I have a fair collection of CD's - most of which originate from Amazon - containing music from the 1980's and 1990's, be they scores or soundtracks or even those of a particular artist.

However, the soundtrack to "Sing" - a film that needs to be re-released on DVD someday - has me absolutely speechless...

Translation: IT IS THAT DAMN GOOD!!!)


Here is my analysis for each killer track from "Sing:"



1) For starters, Mickey Thomas' performance for "Sing," the film's main title song, is a glorious AOR tune equipped with powerful percussion and high-energy vocals!

2) Johnny Kemp's single, "Birthday Suit," is a pretty cool track - particularly, this song is best played in a club or a huge party.

3) Next we have the lovely love theme from sing called, "Romance," by Paul Carrack and Berlin's very own, Terri Nunn; this tune is a pretty hot duet if you ask me.

4) Nia Peeples' performs a nice little uptempo sing called, "You Don't Have to Ask Me Twice," a song used during a montage in the film.

5) Michael Bolton's "One More Time" really captures how I feel about the film, even though it is around the very end of it; nonetheless, this is a really great song.

6) Another great AOR tune prior to "Sing" is Bill Champlin's "Something to Believe In," the kick-a** tune that plays during the scene where Dominique and Ms. Lombardo make that brilliant dance number.

7) Philadelphia's very own, Patti LaBelle, and her sweet tune, "Total Concentration," strikes both me and the film as she really BREAKS IT DOWN with her MAD vocals!

8) The last, but definitely not least, AOR tune from the film by Kevin Cronin entitled, "(Everybody's Gotta) Face the Music," is not only the one that plays about three times, but also strikes my passion for the soundtrack and this particular song - well, that and Richard Marx's wonderful background vocals!!!

9) Now we have the lovely upbeat song that was actually performed in "Sing" - the actual show - called "What's the Matter with Love" by Laurnea Wilkerson; this song is appropriate for both the film, and the actual show in the film.

10) Finally, a serious song truly defining this film would be non-other than the extremely touching school song performed by Art Garfunkel entitled, "We'll Never Say Goodbye;" even though the film's version would have been slightly better for the soundtrack, Mr. Garfunkel's soft vocals along with synthesized elements has turned the school's theme into what I would properly title, "the world's greatest graduation song!"



There you have it...ten musical gems morphed into one amazing soundtrack to a film that slightly, at one point, had me in tears when I first saw it recently, and I rarely cry in films - not to mention that I am a dude.


Regardless, if you want to see a powerful 80's film, "Sing" is the one to see - good luck finding a copy of it on the net; you can also see it on YouTube.

If anyone decides to purchase the soundtrack, despite the cost, DO IT!!! You will not regret it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sing the soundtrack, September 24, 2007

I love this movie and soundtrack, but I wish they would turn these into DVD's and CD. And I wish they had the song done at the end of the movie, as a group "We'll Never Say Goodbye", on the soundtrack.
