Music reviews of Mamma Mia! 5th Anniversary [CD/DVD Combination]
Music Review: Preferred the movie renditions but this was good too
Rating: 5 Stars
I saw the movie but I've yet to see the stage show (but I hope to soon). Anyway the songs were excellent but I question the criticism Brosnan's been getting about his singing. This guy is alright but Brosnan was better. After listening to this album I can see why "Thank You For The Music" was cut from the narrative (it really is a staged song) but after listening to them, I wish "Under Attack", "One of Us" and "Knowing Me, Knowing You" weren't cut from the film. At least this version of the musical includes "Chiquitita", "I Do, I Do, I Do, I Do, I Do" and "Waterloo".
Update: A few weeks ago, I saw the US Tour perform in Baltimore and I must admit, despite my love of the movie, the stage version is slightly better. And no its not because Brosnan's not in it. The actors were excellent though I wasn't a fan of the woman who played Donna. A great actress, don't get me wrong, and she handled songs like One Of Us, SOS, Slipping Through My Fingers, The Winner Takes It All and the finale songs very well, I just think she wasn't that good on the others (Money, Money, Money, Mamma Mia, Dancing Queen, Super Trouper, Our Last Summer and I Do, I Do). To me, it sounded like she was holding back and wanted to just let loose with her voice but didn't, which is a shame because I'm sure she has a great voice. The same criticism I must put to the actress who played Sophie. When she started out with I Have A Dream, all that came out was a tiny little voice and I thought I was going to have to strain my ears to hear her throughout the night. Fortunately, I was proved wrong as she was excellent. The actors who played the dads were fantastic, particularly the guy who played Sam and his solo of Knowing Me, Knowing You (which should've been in the film as it adds to his character). Does Your Mother Know, already one of my favorites from the film, is even better on the stage, which is unfortunate as some numbers on the stage that look and feel sexy (this song, the next song I'm going to mention and Voulez-Vous) don't get the same treatment for the film. One of my new favorite numbers from the show (a good number but not as much as its almost completely looked over in the film) is Take A Chance On Me, which is hilarious to watch Rosie chase Bill (I even got to have my picture taken with them at the end) around the courtyard and almost end up having sex until the wedding march starts up. The other songs not included in the film I still think should've been as they add more to the characters and what they're thinking. The two songs I could've done without are Thank You For The Music and The Name Of The Game, both of which are great songs and I understand the context in which their used, just slow the story down completely. And the way Mamma Mia (the song) is staged is horrendous; Donna just stands in one spot for the first half of the song THEN moves around (a point the film makes up for). I was glad that most, if not all, of the dialog remained intact in the stage-to-film adaptation (though rearranged drastically). To sum up, everything about the stage show was great, I just wish that somebody else could've played Donna.
Description of Mamma Mia! 5th Anniversary [CD/DVD Combination]
All products are BRAND NEW and factory sealed. Fast shipping and 100% Satisfaction Guaranteed.Put together by Abba's own Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus, Mamma Mia! manages to cram over 20 of the Swedish supergroup's songs into a threadbare plot. It goes a little like this: Young Sophie is getting married and she's trying to identify which of three men is her father. That's about it. Wisely, the musical doesn't mess around with the songs, save for the insertion of some dialogue or for having some of them performed by a man (it works amazingly well). Abba fans will jump on this import of the London production, but traditional fans of musical theater should consider it as well. After all, Andersson and Ulvaeus's songs have always felt as if they were more than isolated pop gems and actually belonged to a longer narrative. --Elisabeth Vincentelli This 5th anniversary edition includes a booklet with cast photographs, three bonus tracks ("Mamma Mia," "Dancing Queen," and "Waterloo"), and a bonus DVD featuring interviews, opening night footage, and show clips.
