Not too bad for a soundtrack.
I could put most of the music to somewhere in the movie, which doesn't always happen when I listen to a soundtrack. There are two reasons I gave this four stars instead of five. For one, you can barely understand a word in the song by Rob Pattinson. And two, I wish Bella's Lullaby was longer. The length of the song is about half the length of the other songs, and the mood of the song fits much better with the movie.
Good Price
Got this for my daughters friend. The price was good, but the Music was fair. Some of the songs are good, but the others are not.
Twilight Soundtrack...
I will agree with most that this does not seem to "go" with the movies and books. I just get a different feel during my experience. I do understand why they chose these songs. If you look on the Twilight book website (and it may even be in printed in the books somewhere, I don't have mine to look) there is a track listing for each book created by Stephanie Meyer. Most of these songs are on there, hence why they were chosen. These were songs that she listened to while writing and were her inspiration. The only song I don't justify is the lullaby. It is horrific and not even close to anything good for Bella or movie music in general. It lacks everything. I wouldn't even put it in some other movie as just music. I am pretty sure a 2 year old could do better. Also Paramore and Evanessence don't even sing the same type of music so I don't know where that came from. I am hoping the next time around though they create something a little more mood setting, but like I said I understand where they are coming from and respect that.
Great sountrack
I purchased these to give as gifts, but after hearing it, I had to keep one for myself. Great item.
better that you think
This is better than the typical movie soundtrack. The songs are diverse and can even be used for backround music.
