Average Rating: Rating: - A treat from Danna and Polley I'm a fan of Mychael Danna's soundtracks (Lilies, Kama Sutra, etc.) and also a fan of actress Sarah Polley (the Ramona series, Baron Munchausen, the Road to Avonlea series, Exotica, Go, etc.), so to have them together on this soundtrack is an excellent treat. Sarah's voice is sweet and pure, lending a unique sound to the covers and a wonderful new talent to the original songs. I only wish there was more of her singing -- the straight Danna tracks are dull in comparison to the ones where he and Sarah P collaborate. Rating: - Sarah Polley the Delicate Hero Sarah Polley is the heroine of this soundtrack. I don't necessarily feel that the soundtrack would be brilliant without her contributions as vocalist. This is not a soundtrack that could stand on its own without her voice. The score fit the film extremely well, but to make this soundtrack worth the money and the five star rating, Sarah Polley's tracks were essential. "Courage" has come to be one of my favourite songs, and her renditions of "One More Colour" and "The Sweet Hereafter" are so otherworldly and powerful that you can just... feel the impact! Based on Polley's talent here, you will not regret buying this CD and won't mind playing it incessantly. (In fact I bought the CD and recorded "Courage" three or four times in a row for listening to in the car! Yeah, that's how good it is!) Rating: - Sweet Hereafter Provides Sweets For The Ear Buying this recording based only on other listener's reviews on Amazon and my own familiarity with Danna's outstanding previous works, I was not to be disappointed! Sweet Hereafter may be his most shining work to date. Sarah Polley is exquisite, a prefected cross between Amiee Mann and Mazy Starr, her voice entrances the listener into a state of involuntary meditation (we all need that once in awhile). I found myself sitting, eyes closed, floating to the captivating and well balanced blend of both voice and strictly instrumental tracks. Although I didn't see this movie, this is one of the few soundtrack albums that can very obviously get away with entertaining the listener without having to rely on a sentimentality factor, it's just a great stand alone CD. Definitely one of those CD's you'll play over and over again and not be tempted to hit the fast forward button, every track is worthy. Click the "Buy Button" on this one NOW, you're robbing yourself of a delicious treat if you don't.
