Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

Sounding like a flashback of the first few years of MTV, the soundtrack of The Wedding Singer starts as an intended goof and ends up quite listenable, thanks. While a couple of these songs had already fallen off the cultural radar by 1985, when the movie's action takes place, what's most impressive is the staying power most of them hold. If anything, the Psychedelic Furs' "Love My Way" sounds even better than it did then, and of course "How Soon Is Now" and "Blue Monday" are classics that have transcended their era: Just ask Adam Sandler. Or Steven Morrissey. --Rickey Wright

5.0 out of 5 stars A great collection of the music that defined the 1980s, 29 Nov 2002
By Daniel Jolley "darkgenius" (Shelby, North Carolina USA) - See all my reviews
(TOP 10 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
The Wedding Singer, besides being a wonderful movie, assembled a soundtrack crammed full of the best, most wide-ranging pop songs from the 1980s. This CD as well as the second soundtrack volume are must-haves for 80s aficionados. Among the most commonly known classics on this CD are "Every Little Thing She Does is Magic" from The Police, "Hold Me Now" by The Thompson Twins, "White Wedding" by Billie Idol, and "China Girl" from the one and only David Bowie. Even the Culture Club track "Do You Really Want to Hurt Me" is enjoyable amidst the other songs on the album. "Pass the Dutchie" is a somewhat forgotten, uniquely-80s hit. I was most pleased to see several tracks from more alternative bands of the 80s, such as "Video Killed the Radio Star" by the Presidents of the United States of America, "Love My Way" by the Psychedelic Furs, "Blue Monday" by New Order (perhaps the ultimate dance song of the decade), and--one of my favorite songs of all time--"How Soon Is Now?" by The Smiths. Such variety means that listeners may not like every single song on the CD, but anyone who grew up in the 80s will discover long-forgotten memories associated with every single one of these songs, and the younger generation will get a good overview of the wide-ranging popular music of my generation. Adam Sandler's "Somebody Kill Me" song is, of course, not an 80s tune, but it really had to be included on the movie soundtrack. Rap fans will be disappointed, as the only rap song found here is "Rapper's Delight" featuring the elderly Ellen Dow from the movie along with Sugarhill Gang, but all in all this CD and its companion volume from The Wedding Singer soundtrack comprise the most representative collection of the unforgettable music of the late, great 1980s.

5.0 out of 5 stars Groovy, 31 Dec 2001
By A Customer
The soundtrack's better than the film, and the film is very good. Classics here from Bowie, Costello, New Order, Smiths, Police, and Culture Club, but also enjoyable lesser known tunes from Musical Youth, Thompson Twins etc. Best tunes are the ROCKING cover by the Presidents of "Video Killed The Radio Star" (you'll have the track on 'repeat' on your CD player), and the brilliant 1982 signature tune from Billy Idol, "White Wedding". The 80s may have been a decade of cheese but the 20 year cycle has occurred and all of a sudden these tunes which we cringed at in 1991 now sound very listenable going into 2002.

5.0 out of 5 stars absolutely fabby!!, 30 Jul 2001
By A Customer
When I first bought this, it was really only for the first song "video killed the radio star", but oh my god! is it sooooo good!! I truly love listening to "every little thing" and "white wedding". I don't even have to tell you how funny "somebody kill me" is! heheheee!! You know the 80's may have been a bad era for clothes, but its music sure did rock!!
