The film is great, takes you back to the seventies with the T.Rex music, but where are the instrumental pieces - Billy's defiant dance in front of his father, the ballet school audition. I prefer film soundtracks to include all music not just be a retrospective 'hits of the past' compilation. NOT WHAT I EXPECTED

5.0 out of 5 stars A collection of great classics, 28 April 2001

By A Customer

One of the best soundtracks in recent times. Including classins by the Jam, T-Rex and the Clash. A brilliant CD for anyone into 70's rock. The best track is Cosmic Dancer by T-Rex, an absolutely blinding song.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful collection of moving music!, 11 Dec 2000

By	tatooine@adsweb.com (St. Louis, MO USA) - See all my reviews

I have not yet heard the CD, but have seen the film several times and the music is one of the elements that compelled me to return. Being a 15-year-old teenage girl from America, I was not familiar with some of the music artists, but hearing songs like "Cosmic Dancer" and "Children of the Revolution" on top of Jamie Bell's outstanding performance, I was absolutely hooked. I even found myself crying when I heard "I Believe" playing with the credits. For anyone who enjoys moving and meaningful music, this CD seems like a definite must in your collection!

4.0 out of 5 stars The film is great and so is the soundtrack!
The songs on this soundtrack are both old (depending upon how old you are) and new, fast and slow but most of all... very good!
