For all fans of the show this is a worthwhile companion, even my mum who doesn't watch the show thought the album was brilliant. Firstly there is the theme tune How Soon is Now? which has a slight rock-bass inspired sound. The full length of the song is even better than hearing parts of it on Charmed.
Then there is a brilliant remix of Ashlee Simpson's Pieces of Me which livens the original up making it even catchy.
The other songs are more relaxing and romantic such as Fallen, San Francisco, Free and Home. These are really peaceful to listen to when some relaxation is needed; I found these songs perfect to listen whilst I was studying.
The only reason I haven't gave this CD five stars is because a couple of sings such as Take a Look and Take it Off never really grew on me. That is not to say other people won't enjoy them; I just found them too mediocre however I would not let that deter anyone from buying this great CD. Also I think there was one song missing that would have made the CD perfect: the song that plays at the end of Charmed S4 episode Long Live the Queen when Paige and Piper comfort Phoebe after she has just vanquished Cole. It is such a lovely song I think the addition of it to this soundtrack would complete it.
Since I wrote this review I have found what that song is called Courage by Sarah Polley on the Sweet Hereafter soundtrack. This is not available in the UK, I had to get it imported from America so it would have been handy if this song had been on the Charmed soundtrack, but the Sweet Herafter soundtrack was also good. Just in case anyone else wanted to get their hands on that song.

This is looking to be an excellent follow-up to the first "Charmed" soundtrack (which includes the title song, "How Soon Is Now?" by Love Spit Love). This second CD contains music from the hit series including tracks by Sarah McLachlan, Dido, Butterfly Boucher, The Donnas, Liz Phair, Vanessa Carlton, Ashlee Simpson, Missy Higgins, Zero 7, Shivaree and Sarah Brightman. An excellent album and a perfect sequel to the last soundtrack release :)

In response to a previous review, the song from the opening credits (How Soon Is Now? by Love Spit Love) is on the first Charmed soundtrack, which came out a year before this one). I'm actually glad they haven't included it again as too many tv series soundtracks keep including the main theme over and over again when most buyers are likely to have all the soundtracks. This one seems slightly superior to the previous one with big names like Dido, Sarah McLachlan, Sarah Brightman, and Vanessa Carlton again. Most of these songs are from Season 7 and the end of Season 6.
