"If you are buying this cd cause you loved how the songs sounded in the show just stop. Most of the songs are sung by different people and they are hardly recognizable. After seeing the show the rifts from Love to Burn stuck in my momeory but it is Cory Lee who sings the song on the cd not Alexz, and she did not come close to pulling it off and has no where near the amount of life and passion Alexz gives the song. I am an Alexz Johnson fan and was upset to find out that only four songs on this cd are hers, Cory Lee sings far too many of them. After hearing what the songs can sound like getting this watered down version was a total rip off."

No!!!!

"I bought this CD- against my better judgement- because I really loved the song Don't You Dare from the show. Thankfully, this song is on the soundtrack and sung by Alexz. I also liked Unraveling. This song is also on the soundtrack, but sung by Tyler Kyte. Do not get my wrong, he has a good voice, but the song isn't even sung right. All the songs (except What You Need, Don't You Dare, and I Don't Know If I Should Stay, and Karma's songs) are changed, the music is practically rewritten. Why is this a problem? Because this is supposed to be a soundtrack of the thrd season. Not a who-can-mess-up-these-songs-the-most contest! And I don't like Cory Lee's vocals. I think they should have worked out the legal issues and let the people who's characters sang the songs in the show sing them on the soundtrack. Otherwise, don't bother. I was really sad that I didn't have Jude's songs sung by JUDE (Alexz Johnson). Spiederman (Tyler Kyte) got to sing his songs and Karma (Cory Lee) go to sing hers. It is not right. This CD go two stars because the four tracks Alexz does sing are phenomenal."

Not as described...

"There are 14 songs on this CD, and only 4 are sung by Alex Johnson! This does NOT qualify as a soundtrack because these songs have ben completely changed from how they were on the show.

Also, the description for this says that all songs were originally sung by Alexz, and that's not true. Cory Lee recorded No Shirt No Shoes for her CD, it was never on the show, and Cory Lee's character Karma recorded I Will Be the Flame for the show with a partial duet with Alexz in an episode. Cory also re-recorded Waste My Time which was a song on the FIRST season's soundtrack featuring a rap part. I would have MUCH rather heard Alex's version without the rap part which I had to edit out on my ITunes.

Don't buy this and maybe they won't get away with this for the season 4 soundtrack.

Go request this on Itunes!"
