 An excellent soundtrack sure to please all Jul 28, 2001
"Remember the Titans" is a fantastic collection of popular songs from the late '60s and early '70s. There's not a single track on this CD that I skip ahead when it comes on. That says a lot, since we all skip through at least some of the songs on most CDs. Not this one, it's great.The first track "Ain't No Mountain High Enough" is easy to sing along with and is a great feel-good song. "Spirit in the Sky" by Norman Greenbaum is another instantly recognizable tune, and one that you'll turn the volume up for. Cat Stevens' "Peace Train" is much more folksy than "Spirit" but it too is a great song that is very catchy. The obligatory one-hit wonder Steam's "Kiss Him Goodbye" is another one that's good - but not to be over-listened to. The Hollies' "Long Cool Woman (in a Black Dress" is an upbeat rock tune to tap your foot to. And well you can read the other tracks listed. What else is worth noting: Eric Burdon & War's classic "Spill the Wine" at Track 8 and the only original piece of the soundtrack, the nearly 7:00 selection from the Boaz Yazkin's original score. The only disappointment is that some very good songs used in the movie--most notably, "The Time Has Come Today" (The Chamber Brothers), "Fire & Rain" (James Taylor), and "Heard It Through the Grapevine" (Marvin Gaye)--are not included on the disc. So if you're looking to get these ones, be aware that they're not here. But everything that IS here is great. So definitely pick this one up anyway!

Remember the 70's? Oct 21, 2000
By Jake Stitch
"Remember the Titians" is a realistic feature that triggers a lot of emotions, and it demands a good soundtrack. But good doesn't even do justice to this; GREAT is more like it1 You'll almost forget you're listening to a movie soundtrack, more like a typical recollection of 70's hits. "Aint No Mountain High Enough" and "Na Na Na Na" steal the show; also noteable are "I Want to Take You Higher" and "Spirit in the Sky". On another note completly, this is one of Disney's best soundtracks for a live action feature EVER--keep it up, Disney! Usually, soundtracks for live-action movies just include instrullmental tracks, and don't appeal to many people as albums to purchase. But this one ROCKS DOWN THE HOUSE! I wish ALL of today's live action movies turned out such good music. Don't you agree?

Remembering When Sep 28, 2003
By Teacher
"Opinion"
I sat and looked at the movie again tonight after it sat in the cabinet for a long while. The movie and the soundtrack makes one think about the days gone by and how we (the people) got along. The film is history, the soundtrack takes you back to days gone by. This film is a good investment of music that will never grow old or die. It will live forever as part of history. Invest and enjoy. You'll be glad you did. It is a great mix of how soulful, hip-hop, classical, and rock can come together to make an exciting soundtrack that will go down in the history books.
