Album Notes
Original music composed by Randy Newman.Producers: Frank Wolf, Joey Miskulin, Randy Newman, Sarah McLachlan."When She Loved Me" was nominated for the 1999 Academy Award For Best Song."When She Loved Me" won the 2001 Grammy Award for Best Song Written for a Motion Picture, Television or Other Visual Media. TOY STORY 2 was nominated for the 2001 Grammy Award for Best Score Soundtrack Album for a Motion Picture, Television or Other Visual Media, "Woody's Roundup" was nominated for the 2001 Grammy Award for Best Country Performance by a Duo Or Group With Vocal.Original music composed by Randy Newman.Producers: Frank Wolf, Joey Miskulin, Randy Newman, Sarah McLachlan."When She Loved Me" was nominated for the 1999 Academy Award For Best Song.The soundtrack to the original TOY STORY was a de facto (instrumental) solo album by composer Randy Newman, but for the sequel it's more of a mixed bag. The opening "Woody's Roundup" is a deadpan cowboy song (a la Newman's "Blue Shadows on the Trail," from THE THREE AMIGOS) rendered here by retro quartet Riders in the Sky in high Sons of the Pioneers style. Lilith Fair folkie Sara McLachlan does a beautiful job with Newman's "When She Loved Me," one of his most haunting Aaron Copland-meets-Fats Domino songs ever. And Robert Goulet does a suitably Vegas reprise of "You've Got a Friend in Me" from the first film. The rest (save for a concluding lite-jazz instrumental version of "Friend") is rather gorgeous, mock-heroic film music that would have made first-generation movie composer Alfred Newman (Randy's uncle) extremely proud.

Only Three Tracks worth listening to.

Created: 19/12/06
I was at DCA and in the background they were playing something that sounded kind of Christmasy (?). Anyway, I knew I had heard it before but couldn't place it. It was driving me crazy.
Then, I saw "Toy Story 2" and found it played in the background when Woody is getting repaired. It's a great track that made me want to buy the cd.
The rest of the soundtrack however isn't as charming as A Bug's Life and I really enjoyed only three tracks: The aforementioned "The Cleaner", "Woody's Roundup" and the hauntingly sad "When She Loved Me".

too much background music, not enough vocals

Created: 03/11/06
we bought this to rip it to our iPod for car trips with our younger son. except that there are only a few of the songs that have vocals, most are musical scores. If I had invested the time it would have been a lot cheaper just to buy the four or five songs from iTunes and save myself the hassle of purchasing (and disposing) of the entire TS2 Soundtrack
