The latest Jerry Bruckheimer production focuses on five twenty-something women working their way through life at a fashionable bar in New York City. Four new LeAnn Rimes tracks highlight this collection. Though all from the pen of veteran songwriter Diane Warren, the tracks vary in style from diva pop ("Fight the Moonlight") to sentimental musings ("Please Remember"). It's only a matter of time before Rimes leaves country music completely behind for the sleek modern world of mainstream pop. The remaining songs are a hodgepodge of different eras. EMF's "Unbelievable" and Snap's "The Power" hark back to the early 1990s, while Don Henley and INXS deliver the dancebeat kick of the '80s. The firing fiddle of the Charlie Daniels Band's 1979 hit "The Devil Went Down to Georgia" seems out of context here. But then, this bar must have one odd jukebox to begin with. --Rob O'Connor

5.0 out of 5 stars It Has Something for Everyone!, August 3, 2000

By	"leslyee007" (Danville, IN United States) - See all my reviews

After working at a movie theater for two years, I have seen many movies and their soundtracks come and go. Coyote Ugly is one that will be around for a while. It brings together so many different types of music in one collaboration. I'm not a big fan of Leann Rimes, but I absolutely love Can't Fight the Moonlight and The Right Kind of Wrong. These are two really great songs. Then you add classic songs from Don Henley, EMF, Snap, and INXS and it makes the album even better. What really makes the album is The Devil Went Down To Georgia by the Charlie Daniels Band. This is a song that everyone likes. I highly reccomend this soundtrack to everyone. The music from a movie can either make it or break it. Most of my CD collection is soundtracks, and every one of them has a certain song that brings back a memory from that movie. This soundtrack is one of those that will keep the movie alive. While listening to this, it makes me want to get up on the table and dance. BUY IT TODAY!

4.0 out of 5 stars The Greatest Bar with the Hottest Tunes!, August 2, 2000

By	Josh Jones (Carrollton, GA) - See all my reviews

When I bought the soundtrack to Coyote Ugly, I wasn't buying it for the music, I was buying it because of the movie it came from. But when I put the disc into my player, I heard the most awesome sounds that I've heard in a long time!

The 1st four track are by LeAnn Rimes. The 1st song is a music enchantment. I think that it is a sure hit! The next 3 songs aren't as wonderful, but they're still pretty darn good!

The 5th song is the Don Henley hit " All she wants to do it dance." The song may seem out of place, but it has always been one of my favorite songs, so having on this CD didn't bother me a bit. The song actually adds flavor!

If Don Henley didn't take you back a decade, then maybe EMF will. " Unbelievable" is the kind of song to make you want to get up and dance!

Just when you fear that the early 90's dance music has ended, track 7 cranks up the beat with " Power" by Snap. By this point in the CD, you are already glad that you've bought it!

" Need You Tonight" by INXS continues the early dance groove. Once again, another early 90's classic that will take you back to your neon shoelaces.

Now there's a break in the musical style. " The Devil Went Down To Georgia" by the Charlie Daniels Band. Is there a person alive that doesn't love this song? This song made me wanna dance more than any of the other songs on the soundtrack. This song quickly became my favorite track on the entire CD.

When you hear the next track " Boom Boom Boom" by Rare Blend, you know that " The Devil Went Down to Georgia" was clearly the climax of the CD.

The last two tracks on the album are ok, but they don't compare to the others.

Overall, I think that Coyote Ugly is a really awesome CD. I actually didn't skip through any of the tracks. But hey, don't take my opinion for it, go out and buy it yourself!

3.0 out of 5 stars What it's missing..., January 20, 2001

By A Customer

Although this CD does have a few good highlights, such as LeAnn Rimes' Can't Fight the Moonlight, The Right Kind of Wrong, But I Do Love you, as well as EMF's Unbelievable featured throughout the entire film, it is missing great songs seen in the film. I picked this CD up in Target a few months back and was surprised AND disappointed to see that Pour Some Sugar On Me by Def Leppard, I Will Survive, and Blondie's One Way or Another were not included in the mix. These were important, stand out songs in the movie and I'm not quite sure as to how one could forget to add these. Other than that, the CD is ok, not much to recommend. If you were looking to buy it, my advice would be to download the LeAnn Rimes songs and Unbelievable, and the always lovable 'Devil Went Down To Georgia.' Save your money and wait till a better soundtrack comes around.
