French Kiss: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack

Every time I see this movie with someone and we get as far as the scene where Kevin Kline is stealing a car, and "Les yeux de ton pere" starts up, they inevitably say, "I HAVE to get this soundtrack!"

My sentiments exactly. I've always said the soundtrack to this movie is worth the price of admission just by itself--there's something for everyone on there (REALLY varied and eclectic), but it's all centered around that basic French feel. I can't even single out a favorite song, they're all so outstanding (and different!) it's hard to compare.

I like it because it contains slow and upbeat songs and has a variety of artists...some well known oldies but goodies such as Louis Armstrong, Van Morrison, Ella Ftizgerald and the Beautiful South. I love it because it alternates between instrumental and sung which is great for dining because at times you need the voice to fill in the voids and at other times you only want the instruments. It never gets too loud that you need to turn it down or too low...no adjustment is necessary other than starting the CD again once it has stopped; hence the search for another CD along these lines of "lightweight pop". You can only play a great CD so many times before the guests start to look at you funny! I've had guests recognize the CD and tell me it is their favourite too! It brings to mind the...Read more
