Product Review

With "One Tree Hill" becoming a youth fave in its second season its alternative pop/modern rock earns its own album. Music from the WB Television Series "One Tree Hill" features six exclusives, including Sheryl Crow's acoustic version of her hit "The First Cut is the Deepest" and Gavin Degraw's live rendering of his hit "I Don't Want To Be". Modern pop reaches its peak on One Tree Hill.

Anchored by a muscular, yet funky live version of Gavin DeGraw's theme song "I Don't Want to Be," this collection of music from -- and, of course, "inspired by" -- the hit WB series walks the fine line between stock-in-trade teen musical angst and decidedly more AC-friendly fare with its dignity intact. Its emotionally charged mix-tape sensibility comes courtesy of series creator/producer Mark Schwan and his music supervisors, a team who showcase the earnest contributions of show star/troubadour Tyler Hilton (including a winning duet with co-star Bethany Joy Lenz covering Ryan Adam's "When the Stars Go Blue") amidst music that's often moodier (Travis' fine "Re-Offender," the languorous "Lie in the Sound" by Trespassers William) and more aggressive ("Shoot Your Gun" by UK trio 22-20s). Still, it's an album whose heart is tender, as ably demonstrated by The Wreckers' (a collaboration between Michelle Branch and Midwest singer-songwriter Jessica Harp) bright harmonies on "The Good Kind" and an inviting acoustic version of Sheryl Crow's Grammy-nominated "First Cut is the Deepest." --Jerry McCulley

4.0 out of 5 stars good, but not what it could have been, February 14, 2005

This review is from: One Tree Hill (Audio CD)
One tree hill is the best place available right now to discover new music. Aside from single handedly launching the careers of Gavin DeGraw and Tyler Hilton, it has also helped little known bands such as Keane and Snow Patrol, however, if you've watched the show from the beginning and have been dreaming about the perfect soundtrack, you may be disappointed. It's a myth to me, after all of the excellent selections for the show, why the soundtrack has been so poorly put together. Some of the best songs ever featured, including snow patrol's Run, from the first season finale, Jimmy eat world's 23, and Keane's she has not time, are all absent. There is no Johnathan rice, I am Kloot, modest mouse, Dashboard confessional, or Ben Lee on this soundtrack, even though those songs were some of the most memorable from the series.

I realize that both keane and jimmy eat world already have songs on the CD, but both of the aformentioned songs are better and more memorable than the two on...Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars The WB makes so much great soundtracks!..., January 26, 2005

This review is from: One Tree Hill (Audio CD)
I love the show since the first second and was waiting for the soundtrack to be available.It's the case now and i'm not disappointed at all!...

All the songs are great and some of them are inedit versions which gives more credit to this CD because it's not just a compilation,it's real mix with a spirit (the lyrics of each songs can be relate to the atmosphere of the serie and its characters).

As a Michelle Branch i was glad to hear her new song and can't wait for the weckers to have their album available.

I love bethany joy lenz's voice and was a little disappointed that her version of elswhere wasn't on the CD...But gladly,her duet with tyler hilton is!...

Anyway,it's a really great CD so buy it!
