 Rating: - Another Prince Soundtrack Better than the FilmThe film was pretty good, thoug didn't always work. Nicholson was the star, Basinger just screamed !!! As for the music well overall it was much better than the film. 'The Future' starts us off, a terrific funk workout pinctuated with snippets from the film and tender strings which really resonate. 'Electric Chair' is an altogether ballsier affair with 'The Joker' confessing he is a bad man and always will be. Then we come to the weakest tracks on the album. 'Partyman' was featured in the film (not all here were). It's a funky jam, definetely toe tapping but not the most memorable, though the scene where 'The Joker' is wrecking the art gallery in which this track features is. 'The Arms of Orion' like its predecessor it was ...

Prince created a soundtrack that moves with the movie. It is not just a compilation of songs that you hear in the background of a movie, like many soundtracks that are hastily put together. This CD is full of dialogue from the movie and from Prince's imagination. Prince put a lot of heart, soul and funk into this recording. Songs: THE FUTURE is the opening song that sets the stage for the dark future that The Joker has in mind for Gothem. It full of techno, synthesized sounds that are held together with Prince's rhythm guitar. ELECTRIC CHAIR comes out ... Read More: Rating: - Pure Partyman!Prior to the release of Tim Burton's dark and stylised interpretation of the Batman concept, Prince had just published the politically controversial Sign O' The Times in 1987 and the fabulously peppy God-enthused Lovesexy in 1988, both of which explored different musical genres and experimented with both established types and some of the newer artistic styles of the decade. Prince has a reputation for pushing the boundaries of musical restrictions, combining a range of different styles of music and it would be fair to say that no one could level the accusation against him that he fails to move and adapt with the times. Batman is a prime example of Prince's ability to blend different genres. Long term Prince fans will recognise some of the production ... Read More: Rating: - batman - prince? what a combo!Fair do's! Alright you got me, I am a huge batfan, at the time I was a huge Porince fan also... so imagine my anticipation when the album came out! I never got around to doing a review for it mind. It is a brillaint album, most tracks you will hear in the movie, apart from "Orions Arms" which is such a beautiful song, so much song that my wife and I call it "our song" The only disapointment for me on this cd is the exclusion of 99 baloons, a b side to batdance, which is a fun track. Its an album worth a look at, if your a prince fan its avery strong album, if your looking for a song , A SONG for your lover, the orions arms will charm :) Rating:  - A little dated by nowI bought this on audio cassette way back in the day not long after the film was released. Initially I was disapointed because it wasn't the Danny Elfman score which was what I mainly remembered from seeing the film. But once I go over that initial disapointment I actually rather enjoyed this collection of songs by prince. Having listened to it again recently however I can say that it has dated quite badly, but there are still at least a couple of songs of thought worthy of being put onto my ipod. Worth it if you can pick it up cheap. |
