Grease - Soundtrack

There are many iconic films out there which will be remembered and rated highly forever. 'Grease' is one of them - the tale of a high school from decades ago, where gangs and drive-ins were all the rage. I have watched this film countless number of times, and have listened to the Original Soundtrack even more. I could not tell you how many times. I contains a host of great tracks, from the famous 'Summer Nights', 'Greased Lightning' and 'You're The One That Want', to the lesser known 'There Are Worse Things I Could Do' and 'Those Magic Changes'. The soundtrack comprises 24 tracks, most of which are brilliant. There are a few which fall by the wayside, but ...  Read the complete review

Who reading this has never seen the film Grease? Not many I bet. It is a film which crosses countless generations, and adopts new generations of fans all of the time, even my three year old has seen Grease, and enjoyed it I might add. What has made the film so popular? Well the story is good, but it is the music for me that makes Grease the greast film that it is. Everyone knows at least one of the songs from the Grease soundtrack, and how many times have we danced around drunkenly (or more worringly stone cold sober) to one of the classic tunes? The cover of the 24 track CD has a picture of a young looking John Travolta and Olivia Newton John. Opener, ...  Read the complete review

The Grease soundtrack is definatly one for anyone who loves the film, we're all guilty of singing along when we watch the film, so why not get the cd to sing along with? On it's first release back in 1978 it debuted at the #1 spot, it's re-release in 1998 saw it once again inside the top 10, so it definatly holds up and still offers something to popular culture today. The Soundtrack features the title song "Grease" written by Barry Gibb of the Bee-Gee's, this song introduces the film, it plays at the beginning whilst the credits are running. "Summer Nights" is also featured on the cd, it topped the charts in ...  Read the complete review

Grease, we've all seen the movie and we know what it has to offer............ great music! A few months ago I purchased the Grease Movie Soundtrack, and I have not been able to stop listening to it since then. You've got easy listening numbers like "Summer Nights", you've got jazzy "Blue Moon", and when you listen to "Your're the One That I Want", you just think of the dancing for it in the movie, and you just wanna sing along. There is so much musical variety ie. different genres within the album, and there is something for everybody. However, the tracks are not in the order from the movie which can be frustrating when you ...  Read the complete review

At times it is hard to believe that Grease is a film made more than twenty years ago. Perhaps then it should be more surprising that the soundtrack still sounds so good, and that so many people still relate to it. Mention the names Olivia Newton-John and John Travolta and people will probably still instantly say "Grease". The soundtrack has so many things going for it. For a start there are 22 tracks on it - almost unheard of today. The songs are (for the vast majority of the time) superb, and as the film is a musical it is easy to relate the tracks to the film. Full credit also to Newton-John and Travolta for their performances on a vast and varied ...  Read the complete review
