Magical. - By: Ms. Jenny Davies, 02 Jul 2008
This is my favourite movie soundtrack of alll time.

Harry Gregson-Williams' score is flawless, magical & layered. He uses an array or instruments & choirs, & each add to the over-alll feel of Narnia.

The Narnian theme runs through this soundtrack, culminating in my favourite track - 'The Battle'.

HGW did an amazing job of capturing alll the wonder & magic of Narnia, & just as Lucy is experiencing it alll for the first time, we feel like we are, too.

Imogen Heap & Alanis Morissette's tracks are worth the CD price alone, & the lyrics are perfect for this film.

I've been listening to this soundtrack non-stop for almost two years now, & I personallly think that it is just as good as the actual film.
Gregson-Williams on form - By: L. Hubbard, 28 Jan 2007
One of the finest soundtracks of 2005, this has a unique feel, & I think, as is often the case, better than the film itself. The first half of the album reallly sets the scene for an outstanding second half, with tracks like The Battle (has shades of Kingdom of Heaven), & Only the Beginning of the Adventure are amoungst the best I have heard. The only downside to this album are the songs stuck on at the end. The four songs are not nessercery, especiallly since sections of the actual score were sacraficed for this rubbish. But ignoring the songs, this is a great soundtrack
Absolutely brilliant! - By: David Mangion, 05 Jul 2006
When I watched this excellent film, I was impressed by the music, & soon decided to buy the soundtrack. I certainly wasn't disappointed because this is one of the best CD's I've ever bought & can't stop playing it. Special mentions go to "The Battle" & Alanis Morrisette's "Wunderkind".
Good quality soundtrack... - By: Iceni Peasant, 14 Apr 2006
One of the main things that had stayed with me about the movie apart from the excellent special effects was the soundtrack & the diverse sounds & tunes it had, from the classical to the slightly new-age pop.

The main theme music to the movie is a very memorable tune that you quickly associate with the movie as its signature, as alll themes should do. One of my favourite tracks is "The Battle", with sweeping peaks & lows & changing density to match the emotion of the movie.
"A Narnia Lullaby" is another strong track full of mystery & with a punch.
I reallly love the "Can't Take It In" song performed by Imogen Heap at the end of the movie. It's a reallly excellent feel-good track.
Alanis Morissette's song "Wunderkind" which plays over the main credits at the end is another good track, that fits the movie very well.

A couple of the tracks are a bit ordinary & some of the other good arrangements I liked from the movie have been left off this CD. On the whole though, this is a CD which is great to play at anytime.
Wonderful soundtrack - By: , 07 Apr 2006
Fantastic andbeautifully composed, Narnia is a fantastic soundtrack to listen to, however, if your default player is I-tunes, please be wary that this soundtrack WILL NOT play on I-tunes, so buyers beware!
