enchanting

i love the movie 'enchanted,' yet i don't watch it too often because it makes me depressed. i got the soundtrack out of the library awhile ago, because it's mostly score, and i tend to love scores, so i thought i'd try it out, but the one time i tried to listen to it, it made me think of the movie too much and made me depressed. i decided to give it a go again last night, hoping that if i sucked it up through the songs, i could get to the score and it would be fine. i made it through the whole cd this time. and i found something wonderful. yes, it still kind of depressed me, but i hadn't noticed what the last track was. all the movie songs are at the beginning, then it's the score, and then it's this:

cheesy song, but my goodness he has a great voice. why did he only get 3 singing lines in the movie? and why is 'hairspray' really his only musical? come now hollywood people. don't waste this talent!

i love the smooth polishedness (?- i don't know what else to call it) of his voice.

to quote darkangelsilvermoon, "james m is freaking sexy and his voice is like whoa"

I was going to just listen for a second and then comment. But...umm...I'm still listening to it. I like. :)

Wow! (actually I listened before work this morning, but just commenting now -- and on that note, thanks for getting it stuck in my head:P) And while I agree with you because he is (obviously) a really great singer, I didn't like him as the lead in '27 Dresses.' I think he just does better in a supporting role or something. But maybe that's just because that's mostly all he's done so far. Maybe he'd be better at being the lead in Disney animated movies? He is decent-looking though. Maybe he just needs more practice in lead roles (if nothing else, just for me to accept him in them;).

Oh, and one more thing: I love 'Enchanted.' :)

i thought he was cute in 27 dresses. maybe the lead role you need to see him in is a musical. ;)

I didn't realize that was him singing that.

And, why on earth do you find Enchanted depressing??? I can watch that movie 20 times a day!

it reminds me that fairy tales are not true and life is not the romantic wonder that we've been conditioned to expect since our first viewing of a disney cartoon.

Oh, but I think that in the end, Gizelle discovers that the fairy tale isn't as good as real life. That the problems of the real world often make love sweeter. And love conquers all. I still don't see how that is depressing! :-D

ah, but see honormommy, that's assuming you can find someone to love, which doesn't always happen outside of fairy tales. for far too many of us, there is no handsome prince.

I love the male singing voice. So rich in tones.

Unfortunately I've only seen that movie once. I remember enjoying it.

Yup, life isn't like the movies. That's why we watch them, to escape from life. It's like falling into a daydream for a couple hours.
