Album Description
Bringing the timeless lyrics and melodies of iconic super group ABBA to movie audiences, this summer is the season for Mamma Mia! Meryl Streep leads an all-star cast in the feature-film adaptation of the beloved musical that has been seen by more than 30 million people in 160 cities and 8 languages around the world. Meryl Streep plays an independent, single mother and owner of a small hotel on an idyllic Greek island, about to let go of her spirited daughter whom she's raised alone. But the young bride has secretly invited some guests of her own three men from her mom's past, one of whom is the girl's biological father. Over 24 chaotic, magical hours, new love will bloom and old romances will be rekindled, in this warm and hilarious adaptation of one of the most popular musicals ever written.

5 out of 5 stars Mamma Mia!   January 6, 2009
Jessica Hui (honolulu, hawaii)
Wonderful CD if you loved the musical or the movie; Meryl Streep is a particularly fine singer, and all the tracks carry the easy gaiety of the show. A clarification (that I was looking for when purchasing) is that these are indeed the songs from the show/movie itself, NOT the original ABBA songs (not to be missed either).


4 out of 5 stars 4 stars ?   January 6, 2009
Amit VAIDYA (Sweden)
Splendid except for the fact that it did not contain "Thank you for the music"

Great shipping time and package arrived safely. Gave as a christmas gift, so I am not sure of the DVD, but I haven't heard anything bad.


4 out of 5 stars Endless Chances to Sing Along   January 4, 2009
Irishgal (Arizona, USA)
When the film version of "Mamma Mia!" was released in July 2008, many wondered how an all-star Hollywood cast, including Pierce Brosnan, Colin Firth, Meryl Streep, and relative newcomer Amanda Seyfried, would fare singing some of ABBA's timeless classics. Overall, the group did an excellent job, with some songs shining brightly in the pop stratosphere.

Without a doubt, the two singing stars from the film are Streep and Seyfriend. The former has particularly touching vocals on 'The Winner Takes It All' and rocks on the title track, while the latter shines in 'Honey, Honey' and 'Lay All Your Love on Me'. Colin Firth puts in a decent effort with his cohorts on 'Our Last Summer', and co-stars Christine Baranski and Julie Walters make 'Dancing Queen', 'Super Trouper', and 'Take a Chance on Me' even more delectable.

Unfortunately, Pierce Brosnan's strained and often off-key attempts do detract from the soundtrack. While it was somewhat cute in the film, his butchering of 'When All is Said and Done' and 'SOS' keep the soundtrack from being a solid five stars. I do commend him for his efforts, but this is a musical, not a Bond film. I expected more.

Overall, the soundtrack to "Mamma Mia!" is sure to please anyone who enjoyed the movie, providing endless chances to sing alone to one of the great musical films.
