Product Description
From Amazon.com
Fire up the nostalgia machine for the soundtrack to Cherish, an album filled with the type of gooey, fuzzy songs populating light rock stations now, but high school slow dances in the past. 10CC's "I'm Not in Love" sighs like a seashore, all gauzy synths and primitive computerized harmonies, while the title cut by the Association rings with soft bells and summery, melodic mellowness. Daryl Hall and John Oates's mega-'80s-sounding hit "Private Eyes" is a guilty, sing-along pleasure, and the Impressions' "Get Up and Move" jives with big horns and soul. New wave synth chic even checks in, with the Human League's droll "(Keep Feeling) Fascination" and Modern English's romantic "I Melt with You." The only newer tracks are courtesy of Noe Venable--and even then, "Breakdown" is her fragile, haunting cover of the Tom Petty song. The mix on Cherish is definitely low-key, if a little heavy on sappiness. Yet its diversity, charmingly, works well. While certainly jumping decades with impunity, Cherish's high quality hits mesh nicely--creating a sweet, fluffy compilation CD of love songs covering all shapes and styles. --Annie Zaleski

Cherish as in Chershing the memories...,
By william and sharon southerland (Delaware) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Cherish (Audio CD)
The movie was excellent and I found the soundtrack is one of those soundtracks that is hard and rare to find. 80"s were my teenage years and brought back alot of wonderful memories. They just don't make excellent music like that anymore. ANything that brings back excellent memories of my ex-husband is always an extra plus.

A surprise disappointment...,
By
This review is from: Cherish (Audio CD)
I enjoyed the indie flick "Cherish" mainly because of the delightful performance by Robin Tunney and the clever use of 1980s music (it's billed at 1980s music, but some of it is from the 1970). Strangely, I found the soundtrack wore me out after two listens. For one thing, the songs are all sort of sound the same --e.g. the beginning of "She's Gone" by Hall and Oates sounds a lot like the beginning of 10CC's "I'm Not In Love". For another, a lot of the other tracks (Hall and Oats and 10cc withstanding) are annoying when listened to in their entirely. If I never again hear the Association's "Cherish" it will be too soon!Some may enjoy this collection, but for me seeing the movie sufficed.

A journey through the 80's music,
By Luz Adriana ":)" (Michigan, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Cherish (Audio CD)
Either if you have seen this very enjoyable movie or not, if you like the 80's, you will love this soundtrack. It's a great collection of hits from those days.
