Product description

While the remake of The Thomas Crown Affair couldn't really hold a candle to the magnificent 1967 original the soundtrack is a little better. Bill Conti's score -- while not as pungent as Michel Legrand's original -- is still effective and probing. One of the highlights of this version is Sting's version of the classic 'Windmills of Your Mind ' which brings a slight (and welcome) reggae element to this song. Nina Simone's 'Sinner Man' is almost as good highlighting her fabulous blues/jazz vocals. ~ Matthew GreenwaldOriginal score composed by Bill Conti.Valley Bill

Amazon.com

The Thomas Crown Affair is a caper story with a new (well, retread) twist: Pierce Brosnan plays a guy who can afford virtually anything, so he attempts to get something he can't, a Monet. It's a movie fitting of a polished, well-produced soundtrack, which is exactly what this disc delivers. Sting's previously unreleased version of the famous theme song "Windmills of Your Mind" lacks the suave psychedelic flair of Noel Harrison's original version (he won an Oscar for the song on the original Thomas Crown soundtrack), but should please his fans. Nina Simone's classic "Sinnerman" is a welcome contribution, and Wasis Diop's "Caban La Ka Kratchie" is a steamy world fusion tune. Bill Conti's score--varying from pulsating piano compositions to smooth jazz--rounds out the rest of this short soundtrack. For most, the real attraction here is the Sting cut. --Jason Verlinde

Great if you're a Jazz fan..

Reviewed in the United States on March 26, 2013

This is a highly subjective review which you should treat accordingly. If you like Jazz, you'll probably like this CD. Personally, I don't like most of the songs on the CD, but please view that as a reflection of my personal tastes in music rather than quality or anything of the sort. You see, despite my mother's repeated assurances that I would one day embrace Jazz as the music for "evolved" :-) listeners, I have not yet reached the threshold where most Jazz is appealing to my ear. I bought this CD for its rendition of "Sinnerman" from the movie (if you remember the museum scene toward the end with all the men in overcoats and tophats, that's the song that was playing.) Unfortunately for me, I've found that "Sinnerman" is pretty much the only song on the CD that I like.

I bought as a gift for my husband. He mentioned that he thought it would be good driving music. He says he really enjoys it when he is out running errands. It arrived on time and in excellent condition.

Love this Thomas Crown Affair (1999) soundtrack CD - rich nuances, moods. The movie is one of my all-time favorites, and this music is an integral part of the film's mystique created by the vibrant voices of Sting, Simone Dion, the beautiful braiding of Wasis Diop & Beth Hirsch on the sultry Everything Is Not Enough and the moody jazz instrumentals of Bill Conti. Balancing these is the playful Caribbian piece and freeing piano pieces from the glider scenes. This CD plays all the notes of our emotional keys.

Fabulous movie soundtrack

Reviewed in the United States on November 4, 2012

Verified Purchase

This is one of the most beautiful and eclectic movie soundtracks I have heard. It has a mix of jazz, contemporary, reggae and other music that is just delicious. It also has the one "killer track" - Sinnerman, from Nina Simone that is one of the most sensational 10 minute pieces of music that I have ever heard. A reggae beat, a singer with a raspy voice, singing this reggae/rock song where it almost sounds like she is a half a beat behind, but actually isn't, and a song with a melody and power that is rarely heard in any music.

While I bought this album after hearing "Sinnerman" in the movie, the rest of the CD is terrific as well.

Nice Sound Track

Reviewed in the United States on October 18, 2012

I bought this album largely because of Sting's arrangement of "Windmills Of Your Mind", which is heard over the closing credits of the movie. Happy days, it is the first cut on the CD. I think it is one of the best arrangements of the song I have ever heard. I wish I could come up with a good arrangement for solo fingerstyle guitar.

Nina Simone's "Sinner Man" is the second cut, so the two best tracks from the movie are right up front.

The rest of the treacks are pleasant listening, so if you enjoyed the movie as much as I did, I recommend this CD.

Nina Simone and Sting (among others) - jazzy and sexy!

Reviewed in the United States on January 22, 2005

Ah...now THIS is music for sharing with a lover or for enjoying while sinking back in that perfect easy chair- perhaps as you watch the snow fall or the rain come down. The CD will simply sweep you away.

I particularly loved listening to Simone's version of Sinner Man as well as Sting singing "Windmills of Your Mind". Dreamy, sensual and absolutely delicious. If you are feeling more than a tad stressed out, this one should get you back on track.

SIDE NOTE: Do try to get hold of Felix Da House Cat's remix of Sinner Man (the version used in an otherwise forgettable film called Cellular). It, too, is a standout and a good intro to another good artist/remixer.

1st Sting fans, you need to own this, its the only source for the title track. 2nd its always a pleasure to hear Nina Simone's Sinnerman, mmmm. 3rd'ly there is some nice Jazz that plays along and you nature glimpses in your mind of the film. It was bought for her in Doors and it has not left the machine since it arrived. A CD of well constructed choice and sound, the film is not bad too

5* CD? Hold on... this one is not that good.

I read a few very nice reviews on this CD and I decided to buy it. But honestly I am a kind of disapointed with it. The music score its OK but its not 5*
Appart from the first track performed by Sting all other tracks are average or bellow average.

Sting's cover (the term doesn't do it justice) is better than the original - delicious sultry cool production, sharp sleazy percussion, well tempered keyboards, phat, phat sound. Pure class...
