Yesss!! Other Moulin fans!! We just got the DVD and I've now watched it five times in as many days.
I couldn't possibly rank the songs, they're all so good. I agree about Roxanne being the most powerful part though, and I love Your Song and the Elephant Love Medley. Ewan is hot! His smile is so cute (awwww...) and he has a gorgeous voice. I was amazed the first time he sang.

I saw it in the 'budget theater' the first time, and was about blown away when Ewan started singing.
Roxanne is an amazing song. I had a CD with that and "Come What May" on it, and used to sing them both really, really loud in the shower. I can even sing the harmonies in "Come What May". Hehe. Choir buff. I have to sing parts of "Roxanne" an octave higher though, not having a male voice.

Everyone I meet(almost) and who has seen Moulin Rouge says I would be a good Satine. pulease!! I only have the voice. The soundtrack is to die for.
Come what May! Come what may! And Iwill love you, until my dieing day! That's my fav. song. whoever says Movie Stars can't sing watch this movie. I heard that on reason Tom Cruise broke up w/ Nicole Kidman is b/c Tom can't sing and he wanted Nicole to only play Satine if he Could be Cristian. Jerk!! LOD HEHEHEHEHEHEHE being a soprano 1, I have to sing everything except Satine's lines higher. Whoever hates Moulin Rouge should Die!!(just joking)(i'm more likely to get TB b/c I work with horses scary!) (anyone know what track it is when Cristian and co first get to the Moulin Rouge?) LOD

How can she spoil the ending? Christian's opening (or almost opening, can't remember) lines are "The woman I love is...dead!"
It's kind of a giveaway. ~Fae

Could have been worse, I guess. Sauron not far or hairy, just disembodied force of evil. Must go now, have to raise massive demon army to scourge the earth. Also, have manicure appointment. Is no easy task keeping nails pointy. Am tired of climbing up and down eight million stairs just to taunt Gandalf. Should have imprisoned him in easy-access dungeon where could taunt more effectively, and would not have to wait until after breakfast. Have crossed orcs with goblin men in caverns below Isengard. V. tedious experience as orcs and goblin men most reluctant to breed, even with dinner and flowers. Next time will try something easier, such as breeding goblins and cheerleaders to create super-perky army that can travel by day and will not complain about pink uniforms. Did not know when decided to make demon army for Sauron that would be so darn messy. Curse my decision to be Saruman the White. Should have decided to be Saruman the Muddy Brown, or Saruman the Faintly Greenish. White just shows all the slime. |

Your Moulin Rouge obsession pales in comparison to mine.
Truth! Beauty! Freedom! and above all things... LOVE Check out this Moulin Rouge (sort of) wallpaper I created... The first soundtrack really doesn't do justice to the music in the movie. Too many crummy remixes and alternate versions of songs, and almost nothing from Craig Armstrong's score. The second release was far better. // unconscious Argentinian falls through the roof

Hmm, I rather like it, IronParrot.
I love the unconscious Argentinean! So funny. Moulin Rouge: laugh at the beginning, cry at the end, sing the whole way through. Marvellous! I actually like Your Song better than Come What May. I love how Satine is rolling on the ground having fit and then she just stops when Christian starts singing. Elephant Love Medley's the best though. And Roxanne. Hell, it's all so good!

Excuse me??!! EXCUSE ME??????!!!!!!!! did you actually say that you like Your Song better than Come What May???!!! You haven't listened to the soundtrack then. oh well! *shrugs* difference in oppinion. I like most of the songs except for #15, the remix thingamajigger. Your song is really good. So is Roxanne
Your Song: My gift is my song. and this one's for you. and youi can tell everybody that this is your song. Come What MAY: seasons may change winter to spring, but I love you until the end of time. So, listen to them again and then tell me that you can't like Come What May the best. If you could dediate one song to someone off this Soundtrack, what song would it be and who would it goto. I would give Come What May to my Grandmother(died of Cancer 3 days after my b-day 5 or 6 yrs ago) and Your Song to My best bud. She's going through a tough time in her life right now. her fav. song is Roxanne. LOD

I don't have the soundtrack, just the DVD.
I still think Your Song is better. The melody is just nicer.

Your Song does have a nice melody, but oh, the harmony and blend in Come What May...blows me away...yeah, yeah, it rhymed.

I just watched the film again today for the fifth or sixth time, on my DVD. (You'd have to be positively nuts not to watch this movie on widescreen...)
My school is putting on a stage production of Moulin Rouge! tomorrow... it promises to be great. Among other things, a girl I used to have quite a thing for is playing Satine.

AHHHH! thank you for enlightening me on the subject of Nature Boy. I now know what it is. I totally agree w/ you on the subject of Diamond Dogs. Does anyone know what the track is that has Zindler singing: OUtside it may be raining, but inside it's entertaining
Everyone: here we are now, entertain us! etc.????? HEHEHEHEHEHE LOD

That would be "The Show Must Go On", and it's on the second disc.
A SCHOOL DOING MOULIN ROUGE? I would LOVE to do that, but we won't...darn conservatives
