The 1st four track are by LeAnn Rimes. The 1st song is a music enchantment. I think that it is a sure hit! The next 3 songs aren't as wonderful, but they're still pretty darn good!

The 5th song is the Don Henley hit " All she wants to do it dance." The song may seem out of place, but it has always been one of my favorite songs, so having on this CD didn't bother me a bit. The song actually adds flavor!

If Don Henley didn't take you back a decade, then maybe EMF will. " Unbelievable" is the kind of song to make you want to get up and dance!

Just when you fear that the early 90's dance music has ended, track 7 cranks up the beat with " Power" by Snap. By this point in the CD, you are already glad that you've bought it!

" Need You Tonight" by INXS continues the early dance groove. Once again, another early 90's classic that will take you back to your neon shoelaces.

Now there's a break in the musical style. " The Devil Went Down To Georgia" by the Charlie Daniels Band. Is there a person alive that doesn't love this song? This song made me wanna dance more than any of the other songs on the soundtrack. This song quickly became my favorite track on the entire CD.

When you hear the next track " Boom Boom Boom" by Rare Blend, you know that " The Devil Went Down to Georgia" was clearly the climax of the CD.

The last two tracks on the album are ok, but they don't compare to the others.

Overall, I think that Coyote Ugly is a really awesome CD. I actually didn't skip through any of the tracks. But hey, don't take my opinion for it, go out and buy it yourself!

What it's missing...Jan 20, 2001

Although this CD does have a few good highlights, such as LeAnn Rimes' Can't Fight the Moonlight, The Right Kind of Wrong, But I Do Love you, as well as EMF's Unbelievable featured throughout the entire film, it is missing great songs seen in the film. I picked this CD up in Target a few months back and was surprised AND disappointed to see that Pour Some Sugar On Me by Def Leppard, I Will Survive, and Blondie's One Way or Another were not included in the mix. These were important, stand out songs in the movie and I'm not quite sure as to how one could forget to add these. Other than that, the CD is ok, not much to recommend. If you were looking to buy it, my advice would be to download the LeAnn Rimes songs and Unbelievable, and the always lovable 'Devil Went Down To Georgia.' Save your money and wait till a better soundtrack comes around.

Good, but not good enough...Jan 29, 2001
By sparkles
I was very excited to find this cd, but disappointed when I saw what was and wasn't on it. Several of the songs featured in the movie such as Pour Some Sugar on Me by Def Leopard, One Way or Another by Blondie, Cowboy by Kidrock, and I Will Survive by Cake were not featured on this soundtrack. Those songs were vital to the movie and I found that the absence of them on the soundtrack made it difficult to keep the tone of the soundtrack consistent with the tone of the movie. The soundtrack was rather blah, with the exception of the Leann Rhimes songs, EMF, INXS, Don Henley, and the Charlie Daniels Band. My recommendation would be to download the actual soundtrack songs that you like off of napster, and mix them with the other songs that aren't on the original soundtrack, and burn your own cd.

Great Songs From the Greatest Songwriter EverAug 02, 2000
By Ben McDermott
Diane Warren may hold the record for writing the most songs for movie soundtracks. It would take days to name all of the soundtracks her music is featured on. The latest one is Coyote Ugly, a movie about a young girl who, while trying to achieve her goal as a songwriter, she ends up working for a sexy night club were anything goes. Diane writes four songs on the soundtrack all sung by Leann Rimes. Of course, this isn't the first time these two have worked together, as the scored the longest running single in the history of the billboard charts with "How Do I Live." Now their trying to score another big hit, and after hearing the four songs, I'm convinced that they can. In fact I believe that this maybe some of Warren's most polished work ever starting with the first single "Can't Fight the Moonlight." The song has a very fresh, current sound that should fit nicely with the pop wave radio has been riding lately. What really caught me about this song is the imagery behind the lyrics and how it fits so well with the Trevor Horn's dynamic production of the music. They just flow so well. Leann sings this song like a pop artist singing a pop song instead of a country artist singing a pop song. I really like the way this song was arranged as it allows Leann to deliver the most creative and inventive performance I have ever heard her give. The magic continues on my favorite song "The Right Kind of Wrong." Indeed if I would have heard this song without knowing Warren wrote it, I would have never guess she did. The song has an overall pop felling to it, with an edge to it that Leann takes to the next level. The lyrics on this song are amazing, powerful in the sense that Leann sings this song like she means it. The song is produced well, as Trevor Horn gives the song a bit of a rock flavor to it, which makes it that much more appealing to listen to. The two Warren-penned ballads on the soundtrack are equally potent. "Please Remember," is a desperate cry from one lover telling the one she loves to never forget the times they spent together. Leann sings this song with grace and style, bring out the emotional weight of the lyric in her voice. Once again the production is right on the mark, with a beautiful piano leading off the song, and then a soaring string arrangement that leads to the climax of the song which is powerful, yet not to the point where the song gets to over-bearing to listen to. The other ballad "But I Do Love You" is playful in nature with lyrics like "I don't like when the rain falls on my shoe, but I do love you." It's one of the ballads that doesn't require the grand instruments or powerful vocals to get the message of the song across. It simply relies on the clever lyrics and a very laid back performance by Rimes who sings this song very well. Besides these amazing Diane Warren-Leann Rimes collaborations there are some old dance hits including one of my all time favorites "Need You Tonight" by Inxs and other hits from Snap, EMF and Don Henley. However it's truly the Rimes-Warren show on this album. These four songs are perhaps the best songs ever written for a movie. If radio chooses to ignore anyone of them in favor of some of the filth that fills the airwaves today (you all know what I'm talking about) then these are truly sad days in the music industry.
