    Another protest song.
    I didn't like it. I like a good sing along - even if it's rock. 0.002/10

    I used to listen to this before hitting town on a Friday and Saturday nights to get the blood up for a good night. Now I just hit the sack.

    10/10 The Allman Brthers are great.

    Have you heard this version? Not as good as the previous version, but I think it added to the song too.

    I've always been a fan of Elfman's scores. I really like this, too, but I gotta say the chorus brings it down a couple points. Eliminate the singing, and I think it'd be much better. 7.5/10.

    One of my favorite movie scores.

    I like it 9/10.

    This one brings back those late nights trying to watch this film all the way through- it's loooooooonnnnnnnnng. It's a great tune.

    The music is really evocative of the characters, though it's a terrible manipulation because the characters are very unsympathetic murdering hoods.

    A little slow for my taste, and I haven't seen the movie so that doesn't affect my rating. But, I liked how it built. 7.2/10.

    Another of my favorite movie-score tunes.

    Ah, I suppose it's good atmospheric movie for a film, 5/10.

    Much as I despise musicals, Cabaret is one of my favourite movies. But then it's not a musical. No urchins dance along cobbled streets. No hoodlums perform ballet on subway platforms. No nuns serenade distant peaks. In Cabaret, the plot revolves around a night-club, and the songs - neatly relevant though they are to the action - take place on the stage of that club. Even the one 'outside' song is realistic and credible and quite terrifying.

    If I were going for songs from Cabaret, I'd probably choose Money. But this one's pretty damn good. As was Minnelli.For her, it was all going to be downhill.....


    8/10


    When I was ten, I thought this was great. Now I think it's awful callous Broadway corn. But here's to the ten-year-old me.

    I've always been more of a Star Trek fan, but the music is iconic 7/10.

    And I'm not giving up on musicals!

    Pip, I implore you ... let them go. 4/10.

    I like it more for the message of rebellion than the song itself. 6/10.

    Dunno about anyone else, but I decided to keep out of the way until that last song was rated, because I loathed it but I wasn't about to risk invoking the withering scorn of Mutatis by saying so.

    But what the hell - I'm here now.

    Self-indulgent tosh. 2/10 (just for remembering it all).
