Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars A good value.......2007-05-17

I wasn't expecting to have 4 discs for this price, and the music is a quality selection of film music, giving a good scope of the genre, and a very listenable transfer.

4 out of 5 stars The Sound Track Since Bernard Hermann.......2006-07-25

This collection is bound to capture your heart and evoke a tin ear on successive tracks. I found much to like and some duds - easy to skip over.
Very good value.

4 out of 5 stars Good mix of film music.......2006-07-02

Good mix of films!
I'm a big fan of this soundtrack music and will be looking for more CD's like this.

4 out of 5 stars A mixed collection of movie music.......2006-02-23

For the price, this CD is a great bargain. The musical selections, as you might expect, are mixed in quality ranging from extraordinary to so so, the balance being worthwhile and interesting. Sonically the CD is excellent.

5 out of 5 stars Uplifts your soul, takes your mind into the heavens.......2006-01-06

I have been listening to great scores for many years and this collection is truly inspirational in so far as the choice of different scores takes you on a journey of listening pleasure matched by only a few collections.The price is incredibly reasonable for hours of listening pleasure. Don't pass this one up

Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars An all-time classic.......1999-09-11

Eydie really shines on this seminal album. She takes "Eres Tu" and makes it her own. NOT an easy task. Ms. Gorme is alway at her best without having to share the spotlight with Steve Lawrence. Billie Holliday, Aretha Franklin and Eydie Gorme. That says it all.

5 out of 5 stars Awesome performances by one of the best singer's singer........1999-05-16

Eydie Gorme proves that she is a superb singer in either english or spanish, her technical vocal skills as well as her ability to transmit the very sole of a lyric are obvious.

4 out of 5 stars Same titles as "20 Love Songs".......1999-04-17

Exactly the same titles as "20 Love Songs", but in a different order. "20 Love Songs" has all the English titles first, then all the Spanish titles. Either way, you get mostly good songs in both languages - my favorite of the Eydie albums in current release.

5 out of 5 stars Very impressive Popstars group.......2006-01-31

My friend who lives in Canada introduced me to Velvet Empire, who split up a few years ago. This still doesn't stop me getting an interest in their music. She got me the entire album and I've listened to it now.

I am so impressed. Here, we have a Popstars band that can actually sing and have decent material for their first album. Most Popstars bands have awful material for their album, but every single song on Velvet Empire's album is high quality and very, very good. I know absolutely nothing about the band as people, I don't know their names or anything. I only know their songs and the fact they're Canadian.

What are the stand out tracks on this CD? Well, almost everything. I love every single song, but if you forced me to choose a few favourites.... One obvious song is their first single "Frontin' On Me." This song was my first taste of Velvet Empire, and I loved it instantly. It's funky, upbeat and has great lyrics and fantastic music. After I heard this track, I had to hear the rest! Another track that stands out to me is "Good Girls." The girls take the reins on this track, and make a undeniably catchy track. I was singing along on my first listen to the chorus, and I'm being honest when I say it will get stuck in your head. The lyrics are cheeky, with the girls singing about things that good girls don't do. Other brilliant tracks include "I" - a midtempo RnBish style song, with amazing harmonised vocals and great repetition of the word "I" and great shared lyrics, "Now You Don't" - a slower song, but still with attitude about a cheating partner and they see them cheating, "About Last Night" - another slower song about wanting to be with somebody and telling them to think about last night, very sexy song with amazing vocals and "2am" - it's hard to deny that this is one of the sexiest songs on the album, a slow jam with fabulous lyrics and vocals.
The remaining songs are great too - "Wha Wha What" is a very cool uptempo song with ridiculous lyrics, "Mad For You", "That's Right" and "Tell Me" are poppy songs with energetic performances from the band, "Ride" is another pop song with lyrics about going on a spontaneous road trip and "Wild Horses" is a 5 minute slow jam with sexy vocals and lyrics and smooth music.

Top 5 tracks from the album:
01. Good Girls
02. Now You Don't
03. About Last Night
04. Frontin' On Me
05. I

Overall, this is a fabulous album. I fail to see why Velvet Empire wasn't big, they could do well in Europe, they're very poppy and fun, and I love their album!

5 out of 5 stars Velvet Empire.......2005-03-27

I bought this cd mainly because of the song "Frontin' On Me", but now that i listened to their full album i found there are so many other tracks way better than FOM. Worth another listen!!

5 out of 5 stars VeLveT EmPiRe RocKS!.......2003-02-04

Whoa, this CD rocks! Totally! The songs are just so cool and I think it's the best CD of all! I totally enjoyed it, and I'm really looking forward for their next album (if they gonna have it!)

5 out of 5 stars It is so GREAT !!.......2003-01-24

Ok ! Here are the Canadian POPSTARS !
You don't know them ????

First of all, you have to know that they're not like SCENE 23 or EDEN'S CRUSH ! Why ?
Just listen to the voices ! They know the way to make good songs and their voices are powerful !

You don't trust me ?? Listen to the single "Frontin' on me" !
It's a good R'N'B song which is for everyone !

It's hot, it's cool, it's great : just buy it !!

5 out of 5 stars Popstars - Boy Meets Girl.......2002-07-26

I loved this CD The guys are so cool. I know they came out of a TV show but they are so lovely. I watched the show because they were so interesting to listen to and had something good to say. And then when I heard their music I was blown away. These guys can really sing - all of them. The harmonize together very well too.
Their main song Frontin' on me is very catchy and I find it going around in my head, and now they've released I as a single and I love that one too. I don't hear it on the radio very much, thank goodness I've got the CD
