CD DetailsSynopsis
Amazon.com Martin Scorsese digs into the crates for another eclectic, inspired, oddball mix. Mirroring the chaos of paramedic Nicolas Cage's life, the director chooses a soundtrack that reflects spiritual and emotional upheaval, even when it mellows down with reggae classics by the Melodians and UB40. Nerve-jangling rockers by the Clash, Van Morrison (the brutal "T.B. Sheets"), R.E.M., and Janis-era Big Brother are complemented by the wounded romanticism of Johnny Thunders's "You Can't Put Your Arms Around a Memory" and the bizarre doo-wop of the Cellos's "Rang Tang Ding Dong (I Am a Japanese Sandman)." The effect is more than bracing: Bringing Out the Dead's music again shows the auteur at a bigger task than just showing off his good taste. --Rickey Wright Similar CDs

CD ReviewsLet them know T.S. Morris | Austin, Texas United States | 07/26/2000 (5 out of 5 stars) "This CD has almost everything you could wish for. Sadly, it doesn't include any of Elmer Bernstein's haunting score, but it does have Van Morrison, The Clash, Johnny Thunders, and many other greats. The thing I like the most about it is the way all the songs fit together perfectly. Van Morrison's "T.B. Sheets" is one of the few songs that could be called epic, and "Janie Jones" and "I'm So Bored with the USA" have got to be two of the best punk songs ever. "You Can't Put Your Arms Around a Memory" has been playing in my head since I first heard it. I could write about how good every single song on this compilation is, but that would take too long. If you like classic music of a variety of genres, you will like this soundtrack." Brilliant. Chelsea Belligerent | 06/30/2004 (4 out of 5 stars) "It's like Passover! It would've been enough if they'd had only The Clash, Van Morrison, or the diabolic Thunders musically moonlighting on this genius film. But all together, this soundtrack is phenomenal. You've got moody blues, fist-pumping punk, heart-rendering classic rock, and all together- it's outright genius.The only reason I gave it a 4/5 was because of the not included Natalie Merchant song. The fact that they included it in the movie was enough for me.It reminds me of hard nights and hard liquor. Just like the film."
