Who Wants To Be A Millionaire: The Album (2000 TV Series)

 (13 customer reviews)

Don't be deceived by the description of this CD. It is not a soundtrack of all the cool sound effects and background music from the TV show, it is a compilation of popular songs that have to do with money. I bought this CD hoping it was the soundtrack to the show but I was disapointed to find out that it isn't. The songs are pretty cool to listen to anyway, but the description doesn't describe this CD accurately.

I haven't bought this, but I know what this is about. Don't buy it. THE REASON: It doesn't have the original soundtrack of the Millionaire show. It is just a marketing strategy to annoy you with "I want to be a millionaire" and other songs to make you think about money (which isn't everything, of course).THE THING YOU SHOULD BUY: The English import. Whole soundtrack. Plus two bonus techno mixes. Buy as an import from this very site or amazon.co.uk.'nuff said

a pathetic, miserable waste of recording material. I can hear her addressing her contestants now... "Who here thought the American Who Wants To Be A Millionaire CD was worth buying?"ALL of the songs on the disc are only related to the show in the loosest possible way. They don't evern bother to throw in a piece of the actual theme music, instead doing a ridiculous dance tune that bears very little resemblance to the theme song. I don't need to phone a friend to see that I should be instead buying the British import CD with its 78 tracks(!) of almost every musical line from the show, as well as radio and dance club mixes of the show's music. It cost me about 25 dollars, and when combined with the board game (which is wonderfully done and worth every penny if you're a fan of the game), it makes for a wild evening of entertainment. Definitely seek out the Brit CD, don't fall victim to the American disc; it's a purchase that's about as smart as missing a 100 dollar question.
