Customer Review: Quite a good album, traditional to Manu Chao music, with a slight escape into mainstream.
Some songs seem like reworks or versions of the same song done in different ways. Good for listening while riding in a car.
It is certainly worth listening to, but if you are not a real Manu Chao... more info
Customer Review: Concerning the missing/edited tracks: As some have noticed, the two included Sven Libaek songs have not only been re-titled for the soundtrack, but they've been shortened. "Shark Attack Theme" is actually a 3:53 song called "Inner Space" from the album of the same name. "Open Sea Theme" is... more info
Customer Review: Singer, songwriter, filmmaker, poet, and provocateur, Serge Gainsbourg was a chain-smoking French icon. Best known only for his heavy-breathing hit, "Je T'Aime, Moi Non Plus" (recorded with his muse, Jane Birkin, who simulated an orgasm on the song), a recent series of "Best of" compilation discs... more info
Customer Review: Fantastic songs (especially disc 2) by the amazing Francoise Hardy.

Customer Review: This an excellent Album, Most of the songs are traditional christmas carols that we all recognize, but they sound beautiful in French. These arent cheesey christmas carols either, they are contemporary, well done versions of our favorite american christmas classics. there are a few songs sung in... more info
Customer Review: not as good as "A New Groove" .Though good as an easy listening cd.Opening song Destins et Desirs, Nuit Magique,Check in,Cette Fille, Jacob's Ladder,Mina are nice pieces.
Customer Review: Spiky, weird, psyche-pop. Ta Det Lungt twists and turns like some sinuous vine. Be careful it comes with added thorns, too. On first listen things seem harsh and chill, the orchestration is dense and multi-faceted; not quite the 'everything but the kitchen sink' variety, but not far short.... more info
