10 Things I Hate About You: Music From The Motion Picture

An updated read on William Shakespeare's The Taming of the Shrew, Gil Junger's 10 Things I Hate About You is a teen comedy about two sisters on opposite ends of the social spectrum: one is pretty and popular, the older sister is bitter and vengeful. Family rules dictate that the younger sibling can't date until the older one has. You see where this is going. The soundtrack features Letters to Cleo in a '70s mood covering Cheap Trick's "I Want You to Want Me" and Nick Lowe's "Cruel to Be Kind." Sweden's Cardigans include a rare B-side, "War." George Clinton's "Atomic Dog," Joan Armatrading's "The Weakness in Me," and Madness's "Wings of a Dove" still sound fresh. The only real misstep is Sister Hazel's "Your Winter," which sounds like a Seven Mary Three parody, full of breast-beating sincerity and lyrics that defy the laws of coherence. --Rob O'Connor Amazon.com

Great..

This CD is great I love the movie and because of it I when to look for the CD all the music from the Movie are on this CD is great. May 5, 2008

The one thing that would have made this the perfect soundtrack

If they would have included Heath Ledger singing "Can't Take my Eyes off of You", this would be my favorite soundtrack ever. It was a great song, and with his beautiful voice, I could listen to it over and over. Letters to Cleo was the main reason I purchased it though, so I'm happy enough. January 23, 2008

Great music

I enjoyed most of the tracks on this CD simply for the fact that the movie was so great. Each song reminds you of where it played in the movie. Great soundtrack. October 11, 2007

Awesome Soundtrack

Totally recomendable for sparetime listening good music. I like the song Your Winter performed by Sister Hazel, is terrific.
By the way, the movie is great too. Julie Stiles, Heath Ledger, Joseph Gordon Levitt and Larisa Oleynik plays a funny characters. January 4, 2007

Great Soundtrack for a GREAT movie

I loved 10 Things I Hate About You, and the music plays such an important role in the movie, so I got the soundtrack and I love it. While many are complaining that a lot of songs are missing I don't think they know that it is impossible to put EVERY song on the album. Letters to Cleo is a great band and the songs weren't available on iTunes so this was great. I TOTALLY recommend this soundtrack and the movie. December 26, 2006
