It started with a couch - Reviewed on 2008-11-04

I consider myself to be one of those people that can appreciate any kind of music. I never heard of any of the bands on this soundtrack but it I thoroughly enjoyed the music. It's very innocent and makes you yearn for your forever lost youth. Nostalgic.

Watch out for the song samples included by Amazon - Reviewed on 2008-10-20

1 customer found this review not to be helpful.

This review will not be in the usual format, since this product has been extensively and very well reviewed by prior reviewers.
Rather, I want to alert Amazon customers that the samples for the short songs (< 1 min) are way too short and insufficient to tell what the song is like.
In particular, Up the Spout is so short that it is impossible to find what part of the song the sample came from.
Even on short songs, a 10-sec sample should be enough without "giving away the house".

A Good Kind Of Quirky - Reviewed on 2008-10-20

The JUNO SOUNDTRACK is off beat and zany, but it is great fun to listen to. This CD is enjoyed by everyone in my family: my husband, 11 year old daughter, 3 year old daughter, and me. It is one of our favorite CDs to listen to in the car, and since we all have such divergent tastes, that says a lot right there.

The first song, "All I Want is You" is a favorite of the 3 year old. She calls it "The Harmonica Song," and knows all the words better than I do. The lyrics to this folksy song are very cute, and it is accompanied by, of course, a harmonica as well as an acoustic guitar. This is one I don't mind listening to repeatedly, as is her wont at this age.

The rest of the songs are equally whimsical and quirky, some without words, some you have heard before ("Dearest" by Buddy Holly), some interesting, all just plain enjoyable. The voices are all earthy and unique, and I find myself drawn to them. It is kind of like being at a sing-a-long with a bunch of close friends.

The JUNO SOUNDTRACK is great for my family during long car trips. There is peace, harmony, good music, and no bickering. Hey, that alone makes this a highly recommended and very valuable asset.

garbage - if you like this then you need to learn about jazz or something - Reviewed on 2008-10-18

there are times you wish the samples of the music were less than 10 seconds. this is one of them. there is so much creativity here that im not even going to capitalize anything. how much more will hollywood try to shove down our throats. we are already puking. line this up with all the Jlo spears trash and incinerate. hey -- let some more rich kids get together to make a movie and a soundtrack and give it some awards and expect everyone to like it and then tell everyone your successful. nevermind -- they are doing this to us over and over and over. this is like home movies and music of some studio dads children -- we don't need this garbage. bottom line if you want to throw up buy this.

Fun, quirky...just like the movie! - Reviewed on 2008-10-09

1 customer found this review helpful.

This is a fun soundtrack that evokes the feeling of the movie...an interesting mix of music with a quirky twist and airy feel. Many of the tunes have a folksy feel, but there's also a couple of good classics (the Kinks, Mott the Hoople, Buddy Holly) to balance it out. I happen to adore the opening credits tune (Barry Polisar's All I Want Is You) as it brings back childhood memories of other hilarious Polisar tunes like "Don't Stick Your Finger Up Your Nose" and "Early Sunday Morning" :-) If you enjoyed the movie, it's easy to enjoy the soundtrack even if many of the tunes aren't ones you might normally choose (at least that was the case with me).
