Product Description

Amazon.co.uk

Hans Zimmer went from helping create the quirky--if prophetic--pop single "Video Killed the Radio Star" by the Buggles to the Academy Award-winning score of Disney's The Lion King with nary a curve in the arc of his career. His 1997 score for James Brooks' As Good As It Gets displays the deceptive ease with which Zimmer shifts between comedy and drama, often in the same musical cue. This satisfying package includes excerpts from Zimmer's orchestral score, ballads by Danielle Brisebois, Judith Owens, and Shawn Colvin, and a hilariously dead-pan, deliberately overproduced version of Monty Python's "Always Look On The Bright Side of Life" sung with earnest conviction by Art Garfunkel. --Jerry McCulley

4.0 out of 5 stars Better Than Good 7 Aug 2000
By "goldcoastreviews" - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD
Hans Zimmer, of "Video Killed The Radio Star" fame, has put together an eclectic group of songs from the award winning movie, "As Good As It Gets". From country to meldodic standards to pop and on. This music fits all mood swings. Laughing....with this movie it was a requirement.

I really liked the way the music fit different parts of this quirky but heady movie. When Jack Nicholson is trying to tell Helen Hunt he loves her--he plays Nat King Cole's, "I Love You--For Senteminental Reasons" and had discs prepared with all sorts of music for a drive a threesome takes to Baltimore.

We hear Art Garfunkel's, "Always Look On The Bright Side of Life" sung by Jack as he attempts to get his neighbor's dog to eat--it works!!

A good soundtrack from a good movie.

I appreciate your interests & comment votes--CDS

This soundtrack has some nice songs/tunes. It DOES NOT include any of the "oldies" Melvin plays on the road trip. Not a bad CD but not awesome either.
