Editorial Review:

Album Description:
2 CD Deluxe Collector's Edition, contains all of the music from the single disc plus other original score material featured in the film.

Amazon.com:
For better or worse, Andrew Lloyd Webber's adaptation of Gaston Leroux's gothic horror/romance novel has done for stage musicals what Spielberg's Jaws did for fish stories, with worldwide sales of its original cast album approaching 25 million. While director Joel Schumacher's film turns on his typically ambitious visual verve, its new film soundtrack recording has been paradoxically focused in scope, yet beefed up dynamically via the brawny presence of a hundred piece orchestra and the London Boys Choir. This deluxe, double-disc version showcases all of Phantom's key songs, with Gerard Butler imparting a welcome, youthful sensuality to his Phantom, making a fine foil for Emmy Rossum's ever-conflicted Christine. Original show orchestrator David Cullen has fashioned compelling new contemporary arrangements to frame Webber's songs--which now conclude with the lilting, upbeat new ballad he wrote for the film, 'Learn to Be Lonely,' sung by Minnie Driver. --Jerry McCulley

- Can't Get Enough of It!
I cannot get enough of this soundtrack. I listen to this almost daily and when I am not listening to it, I am humming or whistling or down right belting out the tunes of this most beloved musical of all time!

I was in highschool when the musical debuted with Michael Crawford and Sarah Brightman in 1986. I have been familiar with Weber's music and the voices tied to the characters that became an overnight phenomenon world wide.

However, I did not have an opportunity to see the stage show (until just this year) so was delighted when they had made a movie of it. Thank you, Joel Schumacker! The movie tied the music and the story line together and I have been hooked since. So it was for obvious reasons why I purchased the movie soundtrack.

I am amazed and a little dismayed over the reaction Gerard Butler received as the movie Phantom. I knew nothing of this actor prior to this film. ... Read More

- Great Sountrack and Movie
I am an avid phantom fan. I have seen the play both in Los Angeles as well as in Las Vegas and then saw the movie when it came out. The soundtrack is just so riveting and powerful. When you hear it, you can see the movie in front of your eyes. It's just as good as watching the movie itself. For those who love musicals, I highly recommend it. You won't regret it.

- It's like seeing the movie through my memory.
Some of the larger performances are my particular favorites, especially Masquerade. I just love Gerard Butlers performance.

- Beautiful
I prefer Emmy Rossum's voice to Sarah Brightman - not nearly as "trilly", which I find annoying to listen to.
Just an wonderful soundtrack that takes you through the movie audibly. Love it!
