This is great - fun chick music at its best. Especially good for getting yourself glammed up for a big night out - forget your nervousness as you put on your lipstick to "I Am the Body Beautiful", then groove to the excellent tracks like "Do What You Wanna Do" and "Who Taught You How". I'm especially glad they included "She's a Lady" and "Brick House". And the remix of "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun" is one of the few remixes that isn't annoying - it's as much fun as the original. The only reason I give it a 9 instead of a 10 - it was really strange to have that tiny little bit of score included at the end (and I don't think Rachel Portman's the greatest movie music writer who's ever lived), and the "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" cover is not the most enjoyable thing to listen to. Leave that one to Judy Garland.

This film and its soundtrack are gay camp at their best!! Cyndi Lauper's remix of "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun" is stellar. In fact, there's not a bad track on this disc! I'd say this soundtrack will one day be up there with its campy predecessor, "The Rocky Horror Picture Show." ^_^ Great!

Style vs Substance - this movie AND cd have both.

HIGHLY recommend it ESPECIALLY to Salt N Pepa fans!

Body Beautiful Baby, WORK that BODY!

haha!

GET IT! NOW! Nice spot with Rupaul at Webster Hall, which if you grew up in NYC is good enough of a reason to get the movie...

This cd is the top of the line. If you just broke off a relationship, or just feel like a night to your self. This has more girl power than the Spice Girls. You'll fall in love with this drag music spectacular! Enjoy Baby, Enjoy!

Boy, Girl, or boy-girl . . . this soundtrack, is, work it baby, own it, one of the best pre-hello my minions, Sat night red carpet anthems.
The movie isn't the best . . i mean if your a drag queen . . you wouldn't travel & live as a woman . . . but that's hollywood . . they killed Thelma & Lousie for heaven sake!
But yeah Buy it!

Weather your getting ready to hit the club, or your cleaning your house in your panties this album will keep you dancing for hours! Puts you in a great mood, any girl should have this or get this now for their collection! Great tunes, can't stop shaking the booty and walking like a queen! Love IT!

The CD is great. Unfortunately, they have the wrong MP3 list linked to it. I thought I was gonna get the MP3 version for $3. Boo.

This is a terrific soundtrack to a fun movie, but they did a grave disservice to us close listeners by not including the sumptuous Eartha Kitt's Je Cherche Un Homme, which Noxeema plays while talking to Ms. Clara. If you're unfamiliar with Eartha Kitt, RUN to the nearest music store and take a listen--she's truly a classic.

While "To Wong Foo..." is the perfect combination of drama and sexiness, it has some steep competition with "Priscilla: Queen of the Desert". However, it does hold it's own as a soundtrack loaded with all your favourite divas (i.e., Patti Labelle, Cyndi Lauper and Salt-N-Peppa) and some of their most famous hits. The only downside to the entire CD is the original score medley which brings the high energy down to almost nothingness (unlike "Priscilla" which contained bonus and extended remixes of the most memorable songs). Nevertheless, "To Wong Foo..." remains a must have for anyone who's ever dreamed of being a queen.

I love this cd. The songs are versions that arent too easy to find and the movie is one of my all time favorites. This cd brings the feeling of the movie to you anywhere there is a cd player! Awesome!
