This. is. amazing.

January 2, 2018

I have never written a review. GET. THIS. SOUNDTRACK. I have not stopped listening to it since I prurchased it. I dream about the lyrics. It has been a spiritual experience. Sounds funny, huh? But seriously. Uplifting, empowering, moving. I haven't had something light my soul on fire in a long time quite the way this music has! LOVE IT!

A Soundtrack Worthy of Awards

Just saw the movie yesterday and couldn't get the songs out of my head. They are truly amazing. Keala Settle (plays the bearded lady character) leads a few of the songs including "This Is Me" and her voice is extraordinary. I'm a lover of musicals and the music reminded me a bit of the music from "Rent" it's passionate and powerful. I'm sure many awards will follow for this soundtrack!

Moulin Rouge meets Mr. Selfridge meets Glee.

Format: MP3 Music

Think Moulin Rouge meets Mr. Selfridge meets Glee. It ain't perfect, but it's really fun and moves like a jet engine. The songs are good and visual are great. All the nitpicking by the critics is ridiculous. This is NOT supposed to be a biography, it's about showmanship, with a touch of commentary on class structure of the time. Mix in some sentimentality (to enhance the effect of a great showman's story) and there you go: The Greatest Showman.

I've NEVER seen a movie in the theater more than twice. I'm heading to #5 this weekend.
Not a single cringeworthy moment so I can take my nieces and nephews of all ages to it!
I love the music! I love the message! I LOVE the dancing and the costumes. Each time I watch it I catch a new visual aspect I missed previously. It's magical!! Best Hugh Jackman role EVER IMO!!

Uplifting and Energizing

February 5, 2018

I went to see this movie four times because of the music and choreography, so I knew I would love this CD even before it arrived. These songs will make you want to get up and dance. I am belting out the tunes as best I can, especially "This is Me", "From Now On", and "Never Enough." Hearing "A Million Dreams" lifts my spirits as I picture PT and Charity Barnum depicted as children imagining their future lives and then living their dreams as adults. No wonder "The Greatest Showman" has been at the top of the charts! My next road trip will seem much shorter when listening to this energizing music.

I saw the movie and couldn't wait to get home to order the movie score/soundtrack! The movie was one of the best I've seen in a very long time because not only did it convey a great story about P. T. Barnum, but the music and dancing were terrific. I didn't want to leave the theater without ever hearing that wonderful music again, so I had to have the CD. I play it all the time now!

Extreme dynamic volume difference from one track to the next.

Loved the film and all the music. However, has anyone else noticed a very dynamic volume swing from one song to the next on this CD? Still, this does not change my enjoyment of the CD. I just have to keep the remote control in my hand to raise or lower the volume for just about every song. Also, the mixing of Hugh Jackman at the beginning of song #1 is way,way too soft. His voice is also a bit deep. Chorus and instruments start very loud but his singing is very low. So much so, I had to raise the volume considerably to hear him. Anyone else notice this?
