CD DetailsSynopsis
Amazon.com No matter whether Julia Louis-Dreyfus and Drew Carey can actually carry a tune (or the folks at Disney waved a magic wand to extract such confident, energetic performances), the soundtrack to Geppetto sparkles with theatrical grandeur and a swirly, twinkly, spring-in-your-step sound. Disney so reliably generates such energy that its insatiable audience has come to casually count on it, and Geppetto meets its mark. It's a musical retelling of the classic "Pinocchio"--as told from the point of view of the wooden one's father. Each number on the Stephen Schwartz score conveys the gist of this touching tale of pained parenthood through well-polished lyrics. In addition to the novelty of two of U.S. TV's funniest actors singing, this CD also presents an opportunity to get familiar with Sonya Isaacs (an up and comer on the country scene discovered by Vince Gill), who tenderly and convincingly delivers the last cut, "Since I Gave My Heart Away." Also not to be missed is the operatic, cleverly penned "Bravo Stromboli," powerfully sung by golden-piped, top-shelf talent Brent Spiner (also known as Star Trek: The Next Generation's Data). --Tammy La Gorce Similarly Requested CDs

CD ReviewsThe kids and I love it! Sheri | Virginia | 06/02/2000 (5 out of 5 stars) "We are all enjoying this cd in the car. My 7-year old son is requesting track #5 "Just Because It's Magic", #7 "Bravo, Stromboli", #9 "Satisfaction Guaranteed" and #11 "Pleasure Island". My four-year old daughter LOVES "Toys". It is a nice switch from N'Sync every minute (nothing personal) and it's great to hear the kids singing the songs in the back seat!" Love these songs! They touch the heart! Sheri | 05/15/2000 (5 out of 5 stars) "This was a fun movie, but the soundtrack is haunting. I've been singing the songs to myself every since I bought the CD. Drew Carey does a fantastic job on "And Son" , "Empty Heart" and especially "Since I Gave My Heart Away." He is really proving himself to be a multi-talented artist. The songs are uplifting--and "Just Because It's Magic" sung by Julie Louis-Dreyfus is too painfully true! :) This is a great CD! Bravo to Disney, Drew Carey, and everyone else involved in its production!" Bravo Geppetto! Andrew C. Leclerc | Woonsocket, Rhode Island USA | 04/26/2000 (5 out of 5 stars) "Disney's done it again! This is one of the most memorable made-for-tv musical scores ever. Drew Carey has a great voice for the role-funny and dramatic. "Bravo Strombolli" and "Satisfaction Guaranteed" are incredibly fun to listen to, and "Since I gave my Heart Away" soars. In his book "Not Since Carrie" Ken Mandelbaum says that of flop musicals, ones set in Italy are sure to fail. He, of course, was referring to musicals from 50 years ago. Fifty years later, it looks like Disney has broken the curse. I'm greatly looking forward to seeing this movie May 7."
