Album Description
Original soundtrack to the 2009 remake of the original Fame motion picture, essentially a rebirth of this very popular franchise. Fame builds on the acclaimed music, dance and drive to shine, while finding new talent and building a new generation. The film was directed by Kevin Tancharoen, whose fast rise in the world of choreography has made him a name in the music industry, working with such artist as Christina Aguliera, Jessica Simpson, Tyrese, and Britney Spears. The film will open on September 25, 2009, on an estimated 3500 screens. Fame has enlisted the talents of a Multi-Platinum, Multi-Grammy "Dream Team" to write and produce classic/new music for the new film including The Matrix (Avril Lavigne, Shakira, Britney Spears), James Poyser (Erykah Badu, Lauryn Hill, Common, Jill Scott) and Damon Elliott (Destiny's Child, Gwen Stefani, Beyonce).

Soundtrack is better than the movie October 23, 2009
Richard E. Berger (West Babylon, NY)
I saw the new version of Fame before buying this CD and find the soundtrack better than the movie. The music was never an issue though some performances are better than others.
Can't touch Naturi Naughton who not only steals every scene but outsings the other solos on the CD. Not only does she get a new arrangement of the orignal title song and "Out Here on My Own" but she has great new songs, "Can't Hide from Love" and "Get On the Floor" either one deserving an Oscar nomination for Best Song. Also enjoy "This is My Life" the equivalent to 1980's "Hot Lunch Jam." I actually find the new song works better in the new film, with a more improvisational approach. Asher Book is supposed to be the hearthrob but his peformances seem bland next to Naturi, though his cover of John Legend's "Ordinary People" works and the new song "Try" is sweet. Not sure what to make of his version of "Someone to Watch Over Me." The song worked well in the actual scene but does not resonate too well on the CD. Megan Mullally, fortunatey shows us how to do standards with her great rendition of "You Took Advantage of Me." Unfortunately the BIG FINALE "Hold Your Dream" tries too hard to inspire and is not as effective as the original's "I Sing the Body Electric." "Electric" gave me chills, "Dream" made me shrug. The rest of the tracks are used in the movie in the background and are just as effective on the CD, adding some hip-hop flavor to help keep this movie relevant.
A major plus for this soundtrack is we get the complete versions of songs that were edited for the movie, "Out Here on My Own," "Ordinary People," "Try," "Someone to Watch Over Me," and "You Took Advantage of Me." The last two are actually studio versions of songs that I believe were recorded live for the movie.
In the end, I wish the movie had been less trimmed with more depth to the plot while I wish the soundtrack had more peformance songs and less background hip-hop stylings.

Fame, Out Here On My Own, Can't Hide from Love
One of the best soundtracks of the year September 22, 2009
Nelson Aspen (Los Angeles & NYC, USA)
Whether or not you like the reimagining of the 1980 hit movie FAME, you will probably like the soundtrack. Naturi Naughton, Asher Book and Bebe Neuwirth are especially worth mentioning for their talent and the arrangements with which they perform. Lots of genres and a few familiar covers with a new twist make for enjoyable listening. I was happily surprised and have had this in heavy rotation since I first heard it.

So happy to see Rachael Sage has a tune on here! She is awesome! Check her out! Nice to see Fame modernized.
