Sex And The City: Music From The HBO Series [Soundtrack]

sex and the city: music from the hbo series [soundtrack]

Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
The musical soundtrack for Sex and the City is every bit as romantic and glitzy as you might expect from the racy HBO TV series. Soulful grooves and slinky, seductive pop tunes run the gamut from the 1970s disco of Moloko's "The Time Is Now," on which falsetto vocals and lush strings underline the track, to the old-time R&B feel of Joan Osborne's "Righteous Love." Nearly everyone on board is in a sentimental mood. Country star Trisha Yearwood delivers the piano torch ballad "For Only You," while Aimee Mann contributes "Calling It Quits," a literate shuffle in the Elvis Costello vein. The Dust Brothers revive the 1976 Andrea True Connection hit "More More More." An expert on sex moves and never one to miss a chance to update his sound, Tom Jones receives the "Peppermint Jam Mix" for "Sexbomb" (featuring Mousse T), a tune as subtle as its title suggests. The Sex and the City score goes down perfect with a bottle of fine wine and candlelight--and a little backup Barry White, just in case. --Rob O'Connor

3 out of 5 stars Great Highlights, Disappointed and Wanting More.......2006-07-03

I have written HBO about releasing songs from the series including the theme song. My inside source states licensing issues are to blame. I wished for a soundtrack of around five cds with the defining songs of the six seasons. I want more.

1 out of 5 stars SEX AND THE CITY.......2006-03-29

I WAS VERY SAD, BECAUSE I BUY THIS CD WHISHING TO HEAR THE SEX AND THE CITY MAIN THEME, BUT IT WASNT. ONE OF THE TRACKS HAS THIS NAME BUT IS COMPLETE DIFERENT. I WAS VERY DISAPONTED.

1 out of 5 stars Not worth it.......2006-03-19

I was very disappointed, especially with the SATC theme song, it is not the original. Almost all the songs I don't ever recall being on the series. Save your money! I am a die hard SATC fan and sad to say I lost my money on this one, I should have read the reviews first, my mistake.

5 out of 5 stars YOU WILL SURVIVE!!!!.......2006-03-07

More Sex and the City inspired music PLEASE! This CD collection is a funky listen to on those stay at home nights once a month. It's got some Manhattan-style girl power behind the lyrical assembly ... and defintley play this CD after a break-up. It will inspire you to run off and chase your dreams in New York or California or elsewhere.

2 out of 5 stars Why is it not possible..........2005-07-06

...for someone to produce an album that actually bares any kind of reflection to the series? There were some great tracks used during the six series, modern and classics tracks alike.
So why are none of those here? I mean I love some of the tracks here but when where they in the show, ever?
This album, to be fair, does a better job than the latter one which featured the likes of Britney Spears, I mean come on!
But wouldn't it be nice to find out that some one had produced an album that was a chronological resume of all the great tracks from season one through six. Maybe then we might feel we had a "Sex and the City" album and were not just being cynically exploited for a fast buck!
