Dedicated fans of the original Broadway cast recording may quibble about the merits of the movie soundtrack, but the score boasts powerful performances by original cast members Taye Diggs, Jermaine Heredia, and Anthony Rapp. Rosario Dawson, who was not a member of the original cast, turns in a passionate performance as Mimi Marquez. Rock producer Rob Cavallo, who has helped craft the sound of mainstream heavyweights like Green Day and Alanis Morissette, helms the project, and gives the whole soundtrack a sharp, edgy sheen.

By the time director Chris Columbus adapted Jonathan Larson's rock opera RENT to the big screen in 2005, the play had been running on Broadway for nine years (making it one of the longest-running and successful shows in Broadway history). Chronicling the lives of a group of struggling artists in New York City's East Village, RENT deals with issues of poverty, artistic ambition, illness, AIDS, and human connection in a musical storyline that encompasses rock, R&B, dance, and Latin elements.

Personnel: Aaron Lohr, Wayne Wilcox (vocals); Tim Pierce, Greg Suran (acoustic guitar, electric guitar); Suzie Katayama (cello, accordion); Jamie Muhoberac (piano, organ, keyboards); Tim Weil (piano); Gregory Curtis (organ); Paul Bushnell (bass guitar); Dorian Crozier (drums, percussion, programming).

5 stars great soundtrack
Having seen the original off broadway cast ,I think they have been faithful to the original style of the show.Hair was the important to the sixties,as Rocky Horror was to the seventies and this is as important to the youth of the nineties.So be it.

4 stars Not Broadway, but still great
I'd like to start by saying - Do listen to Mike! The cast for the movie is almost completely the same as the original Broadway show (there are only 2 different), which is what makes it great. The comfort level that goes with the performances bring the fire of Broadway to the screen. The score was carefully adjusted for the movie without losing the feel of the original. Great!!!

4 stars Both have their merits
I have both the original broadway cast recording and the movie soundtrack, and I'd say that both have their merits. Personally, I enjoy the movie soundtrack better, mainly due to the fact that I couldn't stand Daphne Ruben-Vega as Mimi (sorry). I think that the casting of Rosario Dawson was perfect, and although I was hesitant of it at first, I think that she proved herself admirably. I do wish that the score had stayed more true to the original, but I definately applaud the fact that they decided to make a film of it. The transition can be dificult, but they pulled it off.

CJ has an unusual, but often more effective approach to writing songs for children. For over 10 years, He has established himself as a chameleon-like artist who can comfortably jump from genre to genre including Rock, R & B, Disco, and Country. CJ's vocal is engaging, easy to follow, and always in the front of the mix. Additionally, his emphasis is on the music and vocal portion of children's songs, rather than silly, story-like lyrics. With this focus, kids are more easily engaged, as they won't listen to lyrics if the music and vocal doesn't grab them. Adults will find CJ recordings stimulating too! Whether they're dropping the kids off at school, or driving cross-country, CJ's genre-bending songs and infectiously playful approach to music will steal the hearts of little ones and big kids (adults) everywhere."FUNdamentals" is a wonderful collection of traditional and original songs for children.  CJ's playful, genre-hopping style makes all 16 of these tracks a treat for the whole family.  "Hey-O" is the perfect opening track, with its optimistically sunny, "It's ...
