Product Description

Amazon.ca

Whether the movie Great Expectations was any good or not, the soundtrack excelled, crossing generations and cultures as Cesaria Evora nestles next to the Dead's "Uncle John's Band," and Mono's breathless "Life in Mono" leads into former Soundgarden singer Chris Cornell's surprising "Sunshower." A new song from Pulp, the first solo release by former Stone Temple Pilots frontman Scott Weiland, and Great Expectations offers a wealth of surprises, the mood constantly changing, the only constant being the quality of the music, whether from established figures or relative newcomers. From Tori Amos to the Verve Pipe, this is an album that has it all. --Chris Nickson

Product Description

This 1998 film brought the Dickens classic to the age of alt-rock, and this soundtrack keeps pace with Sunshower Chris Cornell; Her Ornament Verve Pipe; Lady, Your Roof Brings Me Down Scott Weiland, and Life in Mono Mono. But it also adds tunes by Tori Amos, Iggy Pop, Grateful Dead and even Cesaria Evora!

I agree with the positive reviews. I've loved every songs on this CD. Each is unique and sings true of various themes of Great Expectation. Compare to other soundtracks that I own, this is the best and worth every penny!

4.0 out of 5 stars ain't seen none like you... May 31 2004
By E. Kutinsky
Format:Audio CD
Like that sleak image of Gwyneth Paltrow on the cover, the soundtrack to this mediocre Dickens adaptation is sexy and sophisticated, for the most part. Tori Amos starts it out with loopy solipsism, but most of the songs on the record are joyous surprises - Reef's "Resignation" and David Garza's "Slave" are great fun, Mono does a subtly devastating update on Abba's "Life In Mono," and Pulp finds charm and pulse in "Like a Friend." I think most are agreed the true hero of the soundtrack winds up being Scott Weiland, whose "Lady, Your Roof Drags Me Down" is jazzy, unexpected, and threatens to explode in 100 directions at once.

3.0 out of 5 stars Pick and Choose
Some songs on here are okay, but others are worth playing over and over. Track one I always skip over. Track 3, "Life in Mono," is one of the songs you'll want to play over again. Read more
