Saucy. Submitted on: 2009-06-30 |

| Chicago soundtrack is non-stop fun. Who knew Catherine Zeta-Jones and Renee Zellweger could sing?! Cell Block Tango, All That Jazz, Roxie, I Move On, and Funny Honey are my favorite cuts here. I really enjoyed every second of the feature film, and the soundtrack is to die for. I highly recommend it! |

| Richard Gere surprised me on this one as did Catherine Zeta-Jones but the real standout performance is Queen Latifah with "When You're Good To Mama". She belts it out with great gusto and proves that rappers don't always have to sound like crap. She should do more musicals. It took a little adjusting from what he's done recently but John C. Reilly can really sing. The only one who can't sing is Zellwegger. Her voice annoys me whenever she sings and I cringe. It's like nails on a chalkboard bad. But 95% of the cast isn't bad. The orchestrations were excellent, especially when you crank it up. If it weren't for Zellwegger, this would be getting five stars. |

Best Musical Soundtrack ever! Submitted on: 2009-01-10 |

Chicago is my FAVORITE movie musical and after I watched the movie, I instantly fell in love with the songs. I was going to order it on amazon but I was too anxious, so I bought it instore at Target for $11.99 :[. If you're thinking of buying this, definately buy it on Amazon!! It's the cheapest I've found. But, once I got the CD, I rushed to upload it on my computer and ipod!. I think it's the greatest soundtrack ever! I listen to almost every song like everyday! I love Catherine Zeta-Jones's voice and Renée's is good too :]. Richard Gere was the perfect choice for Billy Flynn. I was really surprised when I saw the movie though, I didn't know any of the actors could sing! (besides Queen Latifah). Especially John C. Reilly!
Also, you get the song "I Move On" which is played during the credits for the movie and "Class" which was cut from the movie.
If you love the movie like me, you should really buy the CD!

A Great Musical Theater Soundtrack! Submitted on: 2008-12-29 |

This is one of the greatest examples of Musical Theater. The songs in this Film couldn't haven't been done any better than besides the greats; Fred Ebb and John Kander. Its sad that it took about thirty years after the Broadway Production for it to be made into a movie. But I guess it was worth it to get such great stars as Catherine Zeta-Jones, and newly introduced to Musical Theater, Queen Latifah.
I sadly would have to say that from what I have heard of Liza Minnelli's performances of songs in Chicago, are not as great as Zellweger's were in this film. Although Liza does a great "All That Jazz", Renee shows Liza how to get the number "Roxie" done.
One thing I really like about this soundtrack is that is olden type of music, and its not remastered old songs, but it old songs performed by Modern artists, and presented in Modern, "High Definition" audio quality. Its like Michael Buble, he does the old standards, but manages to share them with the old standards to us with great, new, modern, quality. And thats exactly what this film does, It still presents the great old classics; But does it in a great modern, and perfect audio quality way.
One part I think that could have been done better by someone else is the part John C. Reiley. From what I Heard he is a singer, but from what I have seen in this movie, he isn't the greatest one. "Mr. Cellophane" is one of my favorite songs from this film, and I think John C. Reilly makes the song look like a joke. It's supposed to be a very touching song, and I don't think his vocals met those requirements. And also, I think the whole vagabond outfit for his character was completely dumb. I think the whole lonely stage setup was great, but the whole, homeless, vagabond thing, just made the song look like a joke. When it really is a very touching song.
Besides that, the film and soundtrack where great. And I loved the two extra tracks on the soundtrack by Queen Latifah, and Anastasia are great.This album completely deserved the Grammy Nomination it got, and I would recommend this album to any Musical Theater fan.

| The soundtrack arrived within about a week. (I never opt for faster delivery.) It was exactly what I wanted and, as far as I can tell, plays flawlessly. |
