Remember the Titans: An Original Walt Disney Motion Picture Soundtrack (2000 Film)
Denzel Washington stars as a black football coach hired over a white coach at a recently racially integrated Virginia high school in the early 1970s. Director Boaz Yakin (A Price Above Rubies, Fresh) has a baby boomer's heart in mind with a stylistic array of early 1970s sounds supported by Trevor Rabin's orchestral score (one seven-minute excerpt, "Titans Spirit," finishes things off here). Charles Wright & the Watts 103rd Street Rhythm Band's "Express Yourself" is, perhaps, the greatest surprise, while oddball favorites such as Norman Greenbaum's "Spirit in the Sky," Steam's "Na Na Hey Hey Kiss Him Goodbye," and Eric Burdon and War's "Spill the Wine" match up with country star Buck Owens's "Act Naturally." Covers include a fiery version of Sly Stone's "I Want to Take You Higher" and Leon Russell's laid-back barrelhouse-piano take on the doomsday anthem "A Hard Rain's A-Gonna Fall." Cat Stevens's "Peace Train" rolls into the station in its original version. Creedence Clearwater Revival (who appear with "Up Around the Bend") are outswamped by the Hollies' imitation of their sound with "Long Cool Woman (In a Black Dress)." --Rob O'Connor
Customer Review: Great compilation of older classics
Even if, by some odd reason, you didn't love the movie, the soundtrack is an excellent compilation of great tunes. Not one bad song on the CD. Great CD for your car if you drive a lot. M :)
Customer Review: AWESOME MOVIE!
This movie is SO GOOD!!! It's a true story about a white coach and a black coach in 1950's America who join forces and coach a high school football team who just began integration. It is about racial equality and handles this subject in a wonderful manner. I love this movie so much, I can watch it over and over and over. It is a heartwarming movie and it really makes you think about racial issues, too, in a very good way. Also, the soundtrack is awesome!!
