Hans Zimmer is certainly a good sountrack composer and he's done the job well here, but I don't feel the music on its own is anything special really. I mainly wanted to hear the Spider Pig track which always makes me laugh. So unless you really loved the music when you saw the movie, or are a very big Simpsons fan then there's not much here really. I expect when I've seen the movie a few more times it will be nice to listen to the soundtrack and be reminded of the various funny parts though.
The only track worth playing was of course "Spiderpig", but even then we were robbed of hearing Homer. Instead we get a chorus & orchestra version !!! In the previous Simpson albums, we are treated to tons of Simpson voiced songs and comedy clips, but this album has NONE of that. The cover is good, the spiderpig song could be a LOT better, and the rest of it, is just a huge let down. Only buy this if you like instrumental music and don`t want to hear any simpson voices.
writing this, i am listing to the cd! it is totally fab. although it contains no lyrics, all the music is soothing and recogniseable from the simpsons movie.
Excellent overall
