"Normally, I would not give a CD that I only listen to two songs from four stars, but these two songs are so good, I just had to give it the rating I did. The only two songs that I like are I'm Alive by Celine Dion. Celine is such an amazing singer and this is another amazing song from her. My favorite song ever right now is Top of the World by Mandy Moore, and that's why I bought this album. Mandy's voice on Top of the World has matured, and I like it much more than her other poppy songs. If you love a song on this and aren't able to download it or get it somewhere else, I recommend the CD. But if not, I wouldn't get it. (By the way, I won't give reviews for the other songs because I can't stand them)!"
CD for music lovers of all kinds!

"I'm a soundtrack fan but rarely does a soundtrack fully impress me to a large extent. Stuart Little 2 Soundtrack is probably better than most of the ones that I have ever purchased. I went on to listen to it more than twice. This CD includes great classic favourites, some redone by newer artists and it crosses the musical genre boundary to include songs from various styles of music. Mandy Moore's 'Top Of The World' is definately among her best while Chantal Kreviazuk's 'Another Small Adventure' is a fun offering and she's definately an artist that you'll be hearing more from in the next few months. Other great songs include Shawn Colvin's light hearted 'Hold On To The Good Things', 'Count On Me' from Billy Gilman and Celine Dion's 'I'm Alive'."
5 Stars, for a kid's movie soundtrack? You bet!

"It's rare when the soundtrack to a movie is better than the movie itself, but this one fits the bill (and I gave the movie 4 stars, so it's not like I'm slamming the movie).Great compilation, with some very unique tunes. Nathan Lane, re-reprising his role of Snow Bell singing "One" is outstanding, and the rest of the tracks hold up well. Very kid friendly, but it won't drive the adults crazy."
