For the soundtrack to the 2004 Hollywood movie SHALL WE DANCE? (a remake of a beloved Japanese film of the same name), music producer Randy Spendlove assembled an eclectic set of songs, all focusing on the romantic and/or dance elements of the picture. The buoyant, Latin-tinged "Sway," performed by Pussycat Dolls, leads the track list, followed by GoTan Project's electronica-tango fusion "Santa Maria." British jazz-pop wunderkind Jamie Cullum offers up "I Could Have Danced All Night," and Mya adds a bit of hip-hop-heavy R&B with a bass-heavy take on David Bowie's "Let's Dance." However, the collection's most surprising and unusual track proves to be Peter Gabriel's rendition of the Magnetic Fields' "The Book of Love." This spare song highlights Gabriel's plaintive vocals, which rest on a lush bed of strings, and sums up the romantic sweep of SHALL WE DANCE?

i was very disappointed with the sound track, i love the movie and enjoy the music in the movie but i must say i played this CD once and i will probably never play it again. There are not many tracks on this CD and quite a few tracks are instrumental only. Generally i really love sound tracks but they are often not what you remember in the movie. My opinion this one is a flop.
An excellent selection of quality dance tracks with useful tempos. We use quite a few tracks in our ballroom classes. Highly recommended, especially the tango: Santa Maria from the Gotan Project.
great sound track from a very good movie! this will capture the spirit of the movie and really take it home for you! perfect for you yourself to dance to in the privacy of your own home. my fave tracks would be Espana Cani, I Wanna (Shall We Dance) - Gizelle D'Cole/Pilar Montenegro and Perfidia. good one
the shall we dance soundtrack is a perfect mix of songs to both chill out to and put on for a party or get together. it contains such great songs as sway by the pussy cat dolls, under the bridges of paris, teh book of love by peter gabriel, the l train and the appropriatley titled song, shall we dance. this is a great cd and i recommend it to all.
