CD DetailsSynopsis
Amazon.com Will Smith makes a welcome left turn from his recent Hollywood McAction Film past in director Andy Tennant's romantic comedy. He is also the film's executive soundtrack producer, taking the opportunity to pay tribute to the R&B and soul that initially influenced his own musical career, as well as showcase its contemporary echoes. Vintage tracks represent Motown (the Temptations' classic "I Can't Get Next to You") and Philly (The O'Jays "Love Train") soul well, while the Caribbean rhythms of Jimmy Cliff's "You Can Get It," Martha Reeves' "It's Easy to Fall in Love" and Earth, Wind & Fire's pop-inflected "Reasons" testify to the old school's rich diversity. John Legend's new cover of Stevie Wonder's "Don't You Worry 'Bout a Thing" doesn't add much to the original, but other new cuts like the hip-hop/soul fusion of Heavy D and the Boyz' "Now That We Found Love," EW&F's collaboration with Kelly Rowland and Sleepy Brown ("This Is How I Feel") and Amerie's funk-charged "I Thing" offer up a tasty modern R&B groove. --Jerry McCulley Similarly Requested CDs

CD ReviewsThat Kevin James dance song is: Bamatick | Boise, Idaho United States | 07/31/2005 (3 out of 5 stars) "The song that "Albert" dances to is "Yeah!" by Usher from the Confessions album. Notice it is NOT on this soundtrack." Missed Usher, but good soundtrack R. Rockenbaugh | North Carolina | 09/02/2005 (4 out of 5 stars) "Loved the movie and the music. The soundtrack is good, but I was very disappointed not to have Usher's "Yeah" on the soundtrack - the dancing scene is one of the best parts of the movie for goodness' sake! Oh well, still a good CD." Actually a really good Soundtrack. The Idle Receptionist | PA, USA | 03/05/2005 (4 out of 5 stars) "I find myself constantly listening to this soundtrack. Hitch was a funny & upbeat movie, and so is the soundtrack. It features Amerie, John Legend, Omarion, and some great old school sounds by the elements Earth Wind & Fire, The Temptations, and the O'Jays. A lot of the more contemporary songs on the album are remakes (like John Legend's, and Omarion's) but even they are great.
STANDOUT TRACKS: Amerie - One Thing: Generally, I'm not a fan of Amerie, but this is such a fun song to listen to. The vocals aren't exactly top notch, but this is a great track to dance to. John Lengend - Don't You Worry Bout a Thang: A great remake of a Stevie Wonder classic. Though John Legend is no Stevie, he does an AMAZING job covering the track. The Temptations - I Can't Get Next to You: I'm sure you've all heard this one. Mark Ronson - Ooh Wee: Another fun track. Features Ghostface Killah & the classic Nate Dogg. This again samples an older song ; but this is still a fun song to listen to. This is a soundtrack that you can really listen to from beginning to end without skipping. I suggest you pick it up." |
