Details
Description
The Hairspray soundtrack will feature 17 songs from the film, including three original numbers that were created specifically for the film version of the hit Broadway musical - "Ladies' Choice," "New Girl In Town," and "Come So Far." Also featured on the soundtrack are the songs "Good Morning Baltimore," "Welcome to the `60s," "Nicest Kids In Town," and "You Can't Stop The Beat." The songs are performed by cast members John Travolta, Queen Latifah, Michelle Pfeiffer, Zac Efron, Amanda Bynes, Brittany Snow and Elijah Kelley among others.
The Hairspray soundtrack is produced by Marc Shaiman and features music by Shaiman and lyrics by Scott Wittman and Shaiman. It features tracks mixed by Ed Cherney (Rolling Stones, Bette Midler) and Peter Mokran (Pussycat Dolls, Christina Aguilera).
Sixteen years after the release of the original film, New Line Cinema is bringing a feature film adaptation of the Tony Award-winning Broadway production of Hairspray to life. Featuring new and original material based on John Waters' 1988 cult classic about star-struck teenagers on a local Baltimore dance show, the comedy features a remarkable collection of talent including John Travolta, Queen Latifah, Michelle Pfeiffer, Christopher Walken, Amanda Bynes, Allison Janney, Brittany Snow, Zac Efron, Elijah Kelley, producers Craig Zadan and Neil Meron (Chicago), and director Adam Shankman (Bringing Down The House). The new screenplay for Hairspray was written by Leslie Dixon (Freaky Friday, Outrageous Fortune).

Reviewer: Violet Baudelaire "Victoria" (wonderland) See all my reviews
I saw the movie this weekend...and the very next day i bought this CD. It is so awesome...both the Cd and the movie. All the singers/actors do an amazing job. The songs are all just plain fun and r all upbeat. This Cd is great for listening to in the car, at home, at parties, or even before bed: Welcome to the Sixties (for car listening), Good Morning Baltimore (at home) You Can't Stop the Beat & Ladies Choice (at parties) and It Takes Two and Without Love (for before bed) All these songs are fun and I love every single one of them!

You can't go wrong by purchasing this CD. Though the movie soundtrack isn't quite like hearing it on Broadway, I'm surprised to say it comes close. The songs are so upbeat, fun, and funny...you'll be singing along with them before you know it! This is the best musical ever!
