3.0 out of 5 stars
Not spectacular, April 30, 2000
I purchased this CD because the original Friends Soundtrack is superb. I really enjoyed that so I was anticipating this. Now, I can't say the CD is horrible, but it's nothing like the other Friends Soundtrack. It has cute little clips from the TV show in between songs, which is kind of a neat idea. And, like almost everyone else these days, I liked Phoebe's (Lisa Kudrow) "Smelly Cat." But, in the version on this record, they have Phoebe singing back-up and doesn't get the spotlight, which isn't fair because she MADE "Smelly Cat!" Ah well, it's not as bad as some of the songs on here. A number of the songs aren't up to potential. Well, none of them are really bad, but a only a few are really good. "Delicious" is somewhat catchy, but I think your money would much better be spent by buying the original "Friends Soundtack." But if you kinda like Friends memoribilia, this would be a nice piece to your collection, really.

From the fan's point of view!, December 6, 1999
By A Customer
This is an excellent soundtrack album! Though, I must say that it's a shame that the original "I'll Be There For You" was not included. I think it's to make sure that people keep buying the first Friends soundtrack. Friends Again is a must-have for all fans. Songs that were featured in the show reminded me of the episodes, and I can't wait 'til the rest are used as well. I especially like the excerpts from the episodes which were used to separate the track. I also like songs like "Question Everything", "Beats the Hell Out of Me", "I Wouldn't Normally Do This Kind of Thing", "What Reason" and the others are also great! There's not one track on this CD that I don't enjoy, and I'm not just saying that! And as for "Smelly Cat"...well, what can I say...ha ha ha...I love that cat! I give it 5 stars!

SECOND PARTS - NEVER BETTER, January 1, 2000
I just bought this album today, and I was hopeful to listen some better versions of the show's icon and representative songs. But what was my unbelievable surprise to find just 3 or 4 good songs opposite to the first soundtrack which has the best songs ever. What I mean is that it has a version of "Smelly Cat" that could have been better with just Phoebs singing in it (sorry Pretenders) and the most horrible version that has ever been made and that will ever be made of "I'll be there for you". Now with the good stuff: the Intro is amazing, the clips are mega-amazing and some songs are good but they could have done a lot better if the songs had been chosen according to the show and not to some comercial wish, because I'm sorry to say it's total trash if you compare it with the magnitude of the show (Greatest show on earth, by the way). Buy it. You are gonna like it but don't expect too much of it.
