This soundtrack is REALLY awesome. It's got a version of Bizarre Love Triangle by New Order that I've never heard before and I'm pretty sure is only on this soundtrack. Upon reading other reviews it also appears that there's an exclusive Debbie Harry track that can't be found anywhere else. And probably the best part about this CD is contains the ever elusive Goodbye Horses track by Q Lazzarus (RIP). I have no idea if the movie is good or not, it looks cute based on the trailer, but I highly recommend this soundtrack. Great snapshot of eclectic 80s music.

I have been carring around the cassette of this soundtrack since the late 80's. I have looked through every retail and used record store up and down the west coast for this soundtrack. Thank god for the internet, and thank you Amazon.
This has got to be one of the best complitations of the late 80's music scene, that no one listened to. With the ultra rare Chris Isaak track "Suspicion Of Love" and the Debbie Harry cover of The Castaways "Liar, Liar" you have the joy of New Order, early Sinead O'Conner, Ziggy Marley and the Tom Tom Club. This album even got me into listening to Brian Eno. I have loved it since highschool and now will love it for decades to come.

I have always liked this movie and wanted to get the music, but it wasn't until I discovered Amazon that I found a way. Even though cassettes aren't the modern method of choice for music today, I still listen to my cassettes and I LOVE the music from this movie.

I purchased this item only for Debbie Harry's rendition of Liar Liar by the Castaways. She does it better and you can't get this cut anywhere else.

GOODBYE HORSES COMPARED

Reviewed in the United States on October 22, 2004

I RECENTLY WON AN AUCTION FOR THE MARRIED TO THE MOB CD WHICH I MAINLY WANTED FOR THE "GOODBYE HORSES" TRACK BY Q. LAZZARUS FROM THE SILENCE OF THE LAMBS JAMES GUMB DANCE ROUTINE. I ALSO RECENTLY PURCHASED THE PSYCHE ALBUM "LEGACY" IN WHICH THE GROUP PSYCHE DID A REMAKE OF THE GOODBYE HORSES SONG. I HAVEN'T SEEN ANY REVIEWS WHICH COMPARED THE TWO GROUPS RENDITIONS OF THIS SONG. ALL I CAN SAY IS THAT THE ORIGINAL BY Q. LAZZARUS IS THE BEST, LIKE MOST ALL ORIGINALS. BUT I MUST SAY THAT THE PSYCHE VERSION IS EXCELLENT. THE SINGER'S VOICE IS VERY SIMILAR TO Q. LAZZARUS BUT PSYCHE'S VOCALS AREN'T AS PRONOUNCED IN VOLUME AND TEND TO BLEND IN MORE WITH THE SONG. PSYCHE TENDS TO MAKE USE OF SYNTHESIZERS MORE IN THE SONG. THE DRUMS ARE PRACTICALLY THE SAME RHYTHM AND BEAT IN BOTH VERSIONS.

MOSTLY, I'M WRITING THIS REVIEW FOR PEOPLE WHO CANNOT GET THEIR HANDS ON THE VERY RARE, HARD TO FIND MARRIED TO THE MOB CD BUT WOULD STILL LIKE TO HAVE A GOOD VERSION OF "GOODBYE HORSES" IN THEIR CD COLLECTION SINCE THE CURRENT ALBUM "LEGACY" BY THE GROUP PSYCHE IS READILY AVAILABLE. YOU CAN EVEN GET IT RIGHT HERE ON AMAZON. THE WHOLE ALBUM IS ACTUALLY VERY GOOD AND PRETTY COOL. DON'T BE AFRAID TO BUY IT. YOU WON'T BE DISSAPPOINTED.

Debbie Harry Liar Liar - the should've been solo hit! New Order, Sinead O'Connor and the weird but enchanting 'Goodbye Horses' by Q Lazarus - as also heard in the Silence of the Lambs - this is one helluva 80's alternate Rock album

Bought this album on CD purely for track 7 "Goodbye Horses" which I first heard in the movie Silence of the Lambs but is not on the official soundtrack. It's a hard track to pin down on CD. The rest of the album is a good listen too which was an added bonus.

This is the sort of crap they do on X Factor

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 28, 2017

A heads up to anyone thinking of purchasing this CD due to the inclusion of the Q Lazzarus track `Goodbye Horses', which if you've got this far in your search you already know is incredibly hard to find on CD. This is, unfortunately, an abbreviated version of the track at only 3:08 minutes long. They cut out a mid section and the track tails off badly at the end. Gutted doesn't begin to describe my feelings on discovering this, hence the one star. The fact they didn't include the full single version of the song on this album is absolutely criminal in my book. This is the sort of crap they do on X Factor, trimming tracks down to 3 minutes. Poor, mind numbingly poor.

My one star review obviously only relates to my personal quest seeking this one particular song. The rest of the album could be great/bad/whatever but I have no interest in that so view my comments accordingly.
