Product Description

Three-time Oscar-nominated Danny Elfman, one of Hollywood's most in-demand composers, continues his long-standing collaboration with innovative director Tim Burton for the soundtrack to the stop-motion animated feature Tim Burton's Corpse Bride. Warner. 2005.

Amazon.com

Did composer Danny Elfman have enough juice for two movies by Tim Burton in a single year? His first 2005 outing, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, is one of his all-time best, and the songs he wrote for each of that film's children are marvels of satirical invention. A few months later, both Burton and Elfman are back with The Corpse Bride, a stop-motion animated film in the vein of The Nightmare Before Christmas. This time it feels as if Elfman may have overextended himself. The composer has fun with Gothic atmospherics, (when in doubt, you can't go wrong with either a harpsichord or an organ) but the instrumentals feel a bit perfunctory. The best part about the album is hearing Elfman's ditties performed by a gaggle of top British actors such as Albert Finney, Joanna Lumley and Tracey Ullman on "According to Plan," and Helena Bonham Carter (surprisingly touching) and Jane Horrocks on "Tears to Shed." Elfman himself sings "Remains of the Day," a tune that tries just a little too hard to be zany; zaniness is achieved more subtly on the fourth and last vocal track, "The Wedding Song," a clever pastiche of light operetta. But it's on the last four tracks, credited to Bonejangles and His Bone Boys, that Elfman finally sounds as if he's having fun, letting loose with casual New Orleans-style jazz. --Elisabeth Vincentelli

    I’m SO happy! I love this movie so much and wanted the soundtrack on vinyl since I recently started collecting and to my dismay there was only a black rsd pressing…until now!!! I didn’t even know it was a limited edition of 1250 till I got in today! I’m so happy with it. The color is so perfect for the movie too, gorgeous.

    Reviewed in the United States on March 24, 2021

    Danny Elfin and Tim Burton are longtime collaborators and they are pretty much in tune with each others wishes as to the sound and direction a movie should take. Danny's piano music for this Cd is worth its price. It is lovely and sadly associated with the eerie tales Tim Burton brings to life. That is why I bought the Cd for those piano pieces, which are wonderful to hear. Danny recreated the sound of the time period, a world without radio o TV or stereos. Music came solely from an instrument usually placed in the parlor of a home: a piano, an organ, a harp, a guitar or other plucked instrument waiting by a wall. I recommend it.. Listen to it as MUSiC, and you won't be disappointed.

    As with so many other soundtracks, this one is somewhat disappointing outside the context of the movie, itself. BUT, it is good. What is notable about this CD are the extra tracks that run during the credits (I think). If you enjoyed the music during the movie, you will enjoy this CD. Whether or not you will enjoy it enough to warrant buying it is a different question; maybe not.

    Reviewed in the United States on October 27, 2005

    Well it's Danny Elfman so obviously I could never give him anything less than a five. Like most music he has composed for Tim Burton films, the Corpse Bride soundtrack has a wintery, eerie, and haunting sound; creepy angelic choir and everything. My only complaint is I wish there were more songs with actual lyrics in them, like "According To Plan", "Tears To Shed", "The Wedding Song" and "Remains Of The Day." The purely intrumental songs are great too but those are my favorites. "According To Plan" is exceptionally catchy. I wouldn't recommend listening to it at all unless you can deal with it getting stuck in your head for about three days afterwards.
