Album Description
Hitting theaters July 27th, this movie is certainly one of the most highly anticipated releases of 2007. It will feature all the voices of the original cast that has made the Simpson's TV show the longest running animated series in television history. The show has aired more than 375 episodes and will celebrate its 400th this season, scheduled to coincide with the film's opening. This CD contains the familiar themes from the show as well as the original movie score by award-winning composer/producer Hans Zimmer. A must for all Simpson's fans and donut lovers alike.

Customer Reviews

So a Green Day track would grant this album 4 more stars? Please...
The soundtrack genre of music is actually two sub-genres. There are soundtrack releases that contain the pop/rock/vocal singles from the movie, and then there are those that feature a composer's actual scoring of the film -- usually instrumental and symphonic in orchestration. Some CD's contain both kinds of works, but there are cases where there's a clear divide. There are, for example, two different releases of the Shrek soundtrack: one subtitled "Music from the Original Motion Picture" and another subtitled "Original Motion Picture Score".

Those who complain that the Green Day tracks or Homer's interlude are not on this CD simply aren't in touch with instrumental film scores. And that's fine as a matter of personal preference, but that's no reason to dismiss the album as a whole.

If you like film scores written in a late Romantic idiom (or most of Hans Zimmer's other work for that matter), you'll probably also like this CD. It showcases how Zimmer can aptly score all kinds of films, like Spanglish , Gladiator, and everything in between.

Yes, this is just the symphony score, No Green Day, no Quirky shorts of the movie.
If you are planning to Buy this CD expecting it to be Funny like Songs key to Springfield, or The simpson's go Symphonic, Sorry, this is just the ochestral motion picture soundtrack, no funny one liners, no familiar skits or sing-a-longs, just symphony. So, yes, I love the simpsons, but am so dissapointed in this CD. And The Donut package edition (I have seen) is pretty cheep, and has absolutely no advantage or special contents over the Jewel case version, which averages 8-10 dollars cheeper. So Sorry simpsons fans, this is just music. Not a must have.

not elfman but good
this soundtrack is very good but more fom for danny elfman fans than hans zimmer fans.the first track opens with the simpsons theme with a real orchestal feel wich is nice.release the hounds is fun its almost out of a tarintino movie kinda feel.the best tracks on the album are (clap for alaska) and (spider pig) the last track they could have done without.overall its a good sountrack from one of hollywoods finest.
