| This 1995
CD from Victor Entertainment for the movie Ice Blue
plays out more like a typical album release than an "original
soundtrack." What this means is that the listener
can expect a disc where a new artist weighs in on each
track, often doing vocal recordings. In fact, only two
tracks here aren't songs, which are "Cut Back"
and "Ice Blue", neither of which is memorable
in the least. The odd thing about this particular soundtrack,
though, is the heavy use of classic American and British
songs redone by other artists. This includes "Lay,
Lady, Lay", "Turn! Turn! Turn!", "Have
You Ever Seen the Rain" "Yesterday Yes a Day"
and "I Feel the Earth Move". Of these re-recordings,
Watauchi Katsuyuki's "Turn! Turn! Turn!" tends
to fare the best and is a pretty enjoyable track, as is
Thriller U's version of Bob Dylan's "Lay, Lady, Lay".
Unfortunately, the original music on this disc doesn't
hold up nearly as well as the remakes of the classic songs.
To be fair, the first track, and title song, done Hirose
Kohmi is enjoyable if one is into Japanese pop. Sadly
the other songs just aren't that good, especially the
Brand New Monkeys' rap song, found on track 9, which is
simply hard to endure. Overall, this disc is pretty hard
to suggest, and it's not surprising that it clutters up
Japanese auction sites as people continue to dump it into
the resale market.
