A Star Is Born Soundtrack by Lady Gaga reviews from people you don't follow
I was recently lucky enough to win this CD in a Smashbomb giveaway, so here's my review!
If you'd read my review of the movie back in October, you'll know that I found it to be one of this years big disappointments (sorry!). For me, the first half was an 8/10, the second half a 4/10, so I ended up giving it a 6 overall. That being said, the best thing about the movie, and the thing that remains consistent throughout, is the music. By now you'll have probably heard Shallow thousands of times by now as it gathers frequent radio plays, and the Oscars are sure to follow. But there are so many other great songs, and it's great to be able to have all of them collected together as Bradley Cooper and Lady Gaga both have incredible voices. With accompanying dialogue in-between tracks, it's like having all of the best bits from the movie, without all the boring stuff that starts dragging it down.

I won this album from a giveaway here on Smashbomb! I was absolutely delighted to receive it and as I am a Lady gaga fan, I couldn't wait to listen to it.
I popped it in and I'm really sad to say that I was very disappointed with it. There are a lot of talking snippets throughout the album, which didn't really seem to fit or make sense in any way. It left me feeling somewhat confused as it was a soundtrack.
As far as the music goes, I really wanted to like this album so much, but it was all very generic and samey throughout. The tracks seemed to run into one and I got bored listening to it, however, I listened to it in its entirety.
I'm really sorry to say that I would not recommend this album (Sorry guys)

Sorry didn't like or enjoy the music, listened to the soundtrack first to see if I wanted to go and see the movie as I had heard a lot about it, actually gave up after several songs as didn't motivate me or even want to listen to more, so will not be going to see the film - well might watch it when it comes out on the film channels so that it will be relatively free to watch.
