5.0 out of 5 stars My 3 year old loves it and so do I!, October 1, 2009
By Crunchy Mamma (Seattle, WA) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Where The Wild Things Are Original Motion Picture Soundtrack: Original Songs By Karen O And The Kids (Audio CD)
Language: English (change)

We just received this from Amazon today. Ran to listen to it and danced for a long while! My daughter has been so excited for the movie and so I thought I would purchase this to keep her from asking me almost daily if its time to see the movie.
I am also a HUGE fan of the Yea yea yeas and Karen O so I thought hands down I would enjoy this just as much as my little one and it was something we could enjoy with appropriate lyrics :) One thing I did not pay attention to is that it is only the Karen O songs, so if you are looking for the first trailer song by Arcade fire "wake up" you will not find it here. I suggest you buy the whole album of Arcade Fire...its great!
Go get it if you cannot wait to see the film! You will be happy!

4.0 out of 5 stars "LET THE WILD RUMPUS START!", October 9, 2009
By S.G.R. Black (Denton, Texas) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Where The Wild Things Are Original Motion Picture Soundtrack: Original Songs By Karen O And The Kids (Audio CD)
"Hi," softly whisperes Max.
"I could use a story," answers his mother.

Thus begins the soundtrack to the highly anticipated release of the much beloved children's classic, 'Where The Wild Things Are.' Fortunately for us, the film is in good hands (Spike Jonze), and luckily, the soundtrack is in the hands of Karen O (of Yeah Yeah Yeahs)and The Kids. The result is a smartly composed fourteen track dream that successfully manages to capture and blend clever child-like tunes (kid choir and all) and sweetly crafted mature pop songs for those adults with an indie flare. Fear not. 'Where The Wild Things Are' ranks among the best soundtracks. It's stands confidently alongside Aimee Mann's 'Magnolia.'

Charming, fun, and yes, quite adorable, 'WTWTA' boasts some endearing tracks. The obvious standout is 'All is Love.' With live children backing up Karen O (who sounds much like a kid herself), "L-O-V-E, it's a mystrey," never sounded so sweet. However, 'Worried Shoes' is a surprise heart-tugger as well. It's a wonderful and much welcome cover of Daniel Johnston's original. 'Capsize,' which doesn't appear in the film, is mysterious, almost tribal-like, and wild, which I suppose is quite appropriate. And who could forget 'Igloo' with it lovely humming accompanied by acoustics and twinkles? I haven't. The rest is simply logical; We hear a few exerpts from the film and the music is consistent throughout. It's a great strat to what could be motion picture triumph-let's hope!

5.0 out of 5 stars FanFreakingTasic, October 15, 2009
This review is from: Where The Wild Things Are Original Motion Picture Soundtrack: Original Songs By Karen O And The Kids (Vinyl)
I just watched the short film on the making of the soundtrack and as it progressed I found myself leaning in further and further toward the screen of my computer. This soundtrack is just beautiful. It makes me feel like jumping on a trampoline and making a fort. Karen O is a goddess.
