Customer Reviews
Rating:  - ALSO, mad about lack of mayfield....and others
I also was disappointed when I ASSUMED that Curtis Mayfield and "she's a lady" would be on the Soundtrack of "Bend it like Beckham" and bought it without looking to see if they were there. I was very disappointed to find out these songs were not included!!!
Rating:  - Pleasantly Eclectic
The soundtrack for "Bend it Like Beckham" isn't just a CD, it's an experience. For anyone who has watched and enjoyed the movie, you just can't help liking this soundtrack.
The best thing about this one-of-a-kind sound track is the fusion of styles present on it. The "western" pop songs ("I Wish," "Independence Day," "Atomic," and "Inner Smile") are all just plain fun. Cliche, perhaps, but the kind of upbeat music that's good for when you're happy, having a party, or working out.
But wait, there's more...it's the Indian pop songs that really shine on this soundtrack. Yes, I realize that you can't understand the relatively few words present on these tracks, but no matter! With their lush and funky instrumentation and intoxicating beats, it's still a treat for the ears.
Lastly, there are a few fun snatches of dialogue that will be a welcome, funny surprise for anyone who watched the movie. I certainly wouldn't buy this soundtrack without first watching the movie (it won't make much sense), but if you've enjoyed "Bend it Like Beckham," this CD scores.
Rating: - A Little Disappointing!
This movie is fantastic as is the soundtrack! The only flaw is the absence of "I Turn To You" by Mel C, which I prefer over her track "Independence Day" which is present on the soundtrack. Otherwise, this (unlike so many other soundtracks!) is great!
Rating:  - WOW
This movie/sound track is fresh, new and something different! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!
Rating: - missing 2 GREAT songs!!!
ok, ok...i would have given this Soundtrack five stars, but i have to say that i didn't because it is missing "Move On Up," by Curtis Mayfield--and "I Turn To You," by Melvina (you know...the first song that was playing in the German club). although the soundtrack is really good, it feels a little incomplete w/out those two songs...otherwise, you should buy it anyways!!!
