Newsies

Newsies (Collector's Edition) Except for feature-length animation, the musical has gone the way of the dinosaur. The Walt Disney company took a stab at reviving the live-action musical in 1992 with Newsies, a throwback picture with a curious subject. In 1899, the pint-sized newsboys delivering the New York pa...	Swing Kids This strange movie with a niche subject--jazz-loving, dance-loving German kids persecuted by Hitler's men--almost works, thanks to a good cast who seem devoted to the unusual story line. Director Thomas Carter doesn't bring the necessary stylistic oomph to the musical sequences, ...	Newsies Matching folio to the exciting Disney musical featuring 8 songs. Also includes lovely full-color photos from the movie. Original songs by Alan Menken and Jack Feldman.	Wicked (2003 Original Broadway Cast) One of the most common complaints about musicals is that the books are flimsy pretexts from which to hang numbers. Wicked runs into the opposite problem: it has a great plot, but too often the songs just get in the way. Based on Gregory Maguire's novel of the same name, Wicked te...	Anastasia: Music From The Motion Picture (1997 Version) One of the more successful attempts by another studio (here Fox) to make a quality animated film on par with Disney was Anastasia. The music by David Newman and songs by Lynn Ahrens and Stephen Flaherty (the Broadway team that won a Tony for Ragtime) give the movie a sturdy backb...

Seize the Day!
And buy the Newsies soundtrack! With middle school girls falling for newsie caps and dance moves (even on up through college!), the songs carry well over half the fun of the movie. While it's great to have the DVD to watch for hours on end, you need something for the car, the iPod, or . . . well, you name it. If you like the movie, you'll like the soundtrack. If you don't like the movie--well, honestly, what were you expecting? The soundtrack really won't change a whole lot from what you heard in the first place.

What can I say? I'm impressed!
Keeping in mind that "Newsies" was officially decided to be made a musical only months before they started shooting it just impresses me! These boys came into this sort of stunned that now they had to use their voices, but they, as well as the writers and composers, put together a very enjoyable soundtrack to listen to! Alan Menken has, once again, composed some catchy, meaningful tunes. I just wish that they were more well-known in the Disney "world". The singers themselves are pretty good, especially considering many of them had never sung before, such as Christian Bale. While they aren't all American Idols, they aren't painful to listen to, either. All in all, if you like Disney, or Broadway, or even New York, this is a good CD worth the buy!

good
i got this for my brother for christmas. it came when it said it would that is very important to me!

Newsies
I love it!! It's great. The music has a great message and catchy tunes. Good story based on real life insident. GREAT!!

Luv Newsies!!!
I absolutely love the soundtrack!!!! The songs are great (with a few exceptions), and I listen to it all the time. The songs are rather short and therefore end quickly and replaying them can get annoying. I wouldn't recommend buying it unless you're a die-hard fan. The shortest song is like 2 minutes or even less.
