Someone get Amy Adams on the Broadway stage, stat! She may not have the huge pipes that are supposed to be necessary for singers nowadays, but based on her sweet performance of three songs on this soundtrack, she gets a tune. Leaving aside High School Musical-style contemporary pop, Disney returns to its sources here, with a fairy tale set to a traditional-minded score by Alan Menken (The Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast, etc.). The first three songs are loving, well-crafted homages to Disney classics, such as Cinderella and Snow White; tellingly, the lovely "Happy Working Song" (with lyrics by Stephen "Wicked" Schwartz) sounds like it could have been lifted from any number of Disney movies--and that's meant as a compliment. Carrie Underwood brings us back into the 21st century with the single "Ever Ever After", which in comparison feels a bit more anonymous. Menken also supplies several instrumental cues, often reprising themes alluded to in the songs, and James Marsden wraps things up with a hilariously straight-faced version of "That's Amore." --Elisabeth Vincentelli More from Disney

 So Fun! July 2, 2008
I love this soundtrack! It has all the songs from the movie in it, so if you liked the movie, you'll like the soundtrack. The first few songs are actually sung, and the rest is background music from the movie. I've mostly been listening to just the singing songs, which are excellent! I would highly recommend this soundtrack!
live happily ever after with this "Enchanted" soundtrack! June 19, 2008

Disney's ENCHANTED is one of my favourite movies at the moment, so naturally I had to buy the soundtrack album. It delivers all your favourite musical moments from the movie, plus some beautiful orchestral pieces from the back-score as well.
In the film Amy Adams plays Giselle, a would-be princess in the animated world of Andalasia, about to be married to her fairytale prince Edward (James Marsden), but who is pushed down a well by vengeful Queen Narissa (Susan Sarandon) and emerges in the middle of New York's Times Square. With a sweet innocence she captures the heart of cynical divorce attorney Robert (Patrick Dempsey); but when Edward later follows her into the real world, Giselle must find find a way to reconcile her fairytale life with a new modern outlook.
Alan Menken and Stephen Schwartz both have extensive knowledge and experience with writing material for Disney movies, and in ENCHANTED, their collective pieces come alive with sunny optimism and rare charm. In songs like "True Love's Kiss" and "Happy Working Song", there's a definite flavour of classic Disney fairytales SNOW WHITE and CINDERELLA; whilst in the upbeat "That's How You Know", we get a glimpse of a more modern musical sensibility.
Amy Adams has a very sweet and accomplished singing voice; she has had stage experience and it definitely shows. Likewise, James Marsden, as Prince Edward, has a lush tenor voice which could see him successfully take on some musical theatre work if he so chooses.
The disc also includes a CD-ROM component for Carrie Underwood's music video of "Ever Ever After". If you love the movie, this soundtrack album is the perfect souvenir!
 Good for your Enchanted fan June 18, 2008
My daughter and I love the movie, so we ordered the soundtrack as soon as we could. The first five songs are wonderful. After that all that's left is the instrumental score--boring for a child. We play the first five songs only, but they're worth the price!
Good buy June 8, 2008
My girls love the movie and the first 5 songs of the CD. They don't care to listen to the instrumental music but do love the rest of the songs
Best Song So Close June 8, 2008
