"Sex and the City" soundtrack - my review
Review date: 2008-11-19 Rating: 8 out of 10
The Sex and the City soundtrack provides a perfect companion if you loved the film, and even if you aren't a fan, there is enough here for you to have a listen to.
Fergie starts off with "Labels or Love", sampling the series theme tune in a song about whether we should be looking for the best label or love in the big city. It's sassy and sexy, like Fergie herself.
Jennifer Hudson appeared in the film, and provides a show tune style track to the proceedings.
Nina Simone gets remixed and I have to say I quite like it, as I haven't really listened to any of her stuff in the past.
I grew up listening to Take That's version of "How Deep Is Your Love" so The Bird and the Bee's reworking of a classic cover version, doesn't really hit me.
The remaining tracks flick between party mode and reflection with a reworking of the Sex and the City theme tune to close things.
My only gripe is how did Duffy's "Mercy" get onto the CD - anyone else remember it's absence in the film....? And what about the songs that don't appear here, yet conveniently appear on a second volume of the soundtrack, released about the same time as the DVD? Very cheeky...

Wouldn't necessarily have bought all these tracks individually, but on a soundtrack to a great movie they really work together. Particularly love Fergie's Labels Or Love, which samples the SATC theme tune. A must have for SATC fans.
