Center Stage (2000 Film)

When I saw the movie Center Stage, I was immediately hooked. I had never imagined the American ballet could be so fun and exciting...I just thought it was very complicated! The movie turned out to exceed beyond my wildest dreams, and so did the soundtrack. Let me just say, it was not a disappointment AT ALL. With flavorful and dance-aholic songs like Jamiroquai's CANNED HEAT and COSMIC GIRL, Michael Jackson's THE WAY YOU MAKE ME FEEL and The Red Hot Chili Peppers' HIGHER GROUND, the soundtrack is everything like the movie and more. The slower songs, such as Mandy Moore's I WANNA BE WITH YOU (the hit that is basically the movie's anthem) and WE'RE DANCING from P.Y.T. are key additions to the soundtrack. They add some sugar to the spice! Also, other great songs, like DON'T GET LOST IN THE CROWD by Ashley Ballard, IF I WAS THE ONE by Ruff Endz, GET USED TO THIS by Cyrena, and FRIENDS FOREVER by Thunderbugs make the motion picture soundtrack very unique.

I loved the movie "Center Stage" and rushed out to buy the soundtrack. Usually I won't buy a soundtrack for the simple reason that all the good music from the movie is missing. But with "Center Stage" this isn't the case!

One of the great things about the "Center Stage" soundtrack is that there is a combination of slow, romantic songs and fast and furious dance tracks. Mandy Moore's "I Wanna Be With You," International Five's "First Kiss," Ashley Ballard's "Don't Get Lost In The Crowd," P.Y.T.'s "A Girl Can Dream" and Ruff Endz "If I Was The One" are all slow/romantic songs. P.Y.T.'s "We're Dancing," Thunderbugs "Friends Forever," Cyrena's "Get Used To This," my favourite band Jamiroquai's "Canned Heat" and the ultimate funk trip "Cosmic Girl," Red Hot Chili Peppers remake of "Higher Ground," Elvis Crespo's "Come Baby Come," Michael...Read more

I bought this CD the day it came out and it was really really good. If you are a pop music lover then you will like it a lot. The Mandy Moore song "I Wanna Be With You" shows a much more mature sounding side of Mandy. The awesome group of 13 and 14 year olds, PYT put out 2 awesome songs on this album, uptempo "We're Dancing" and slow tempo "A Girl Can Dream" (my favorite because it's really pretty and I can relate to it a lot). Some other tracks I really liked are "First Kiss" by International Five and "Friends Forever" by Jamorique (I think I spelled it right). If you love pop music about love and relationships, you'll love this CD so I reccomend buying it if that kind of music is your cup of tea :).
