Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
There was a nice way of incorporating music into this film's humour. Composer Jonathan Richman kept appearing on-screen (first of all in a tree) to sing a ditty. It had the effect of making it seem like a tongue-in-cheek fairy tale. There are three of the songs here, with the last ("Let Her Go Into the Darkness") being an unexpected assassination attempt on him--his singing isn't that bad! The inclusion of "Mary's Prayer" by Danny Wilson shows a sense of humour in the Music Supervision department. It's used for a dreamy montage, and is enormously cheesy. A couple of classics suggest an ear for the peculiar, such as "Margo's Waltz" (Lloyd Cole) and "Build Me Up Buttercup" (The Foundations). Something like "Is She Really Going Out With Him" (Joe Jackson) is included to encapsulate half the plot for anyone not paying attention. Amongst the more recently penned songs is the best thing The Propellerheads ever wrote--"History Repeating". Many comedy albums think it's essential to do the jokes to death with dialogue tracks, but thankfully there are none here. --Paul Tonks
