GREASE IS FOREVER THE WORD

GREASE : THE ORIGINAL SOUNDTRACK FROM THE 
MOTION PICTURE : Grease, what can I say about this movie. It was released during the time when I was in college and it was showing in Kuala Lumpur for almost 6 months. Me and my friends were crazy about the movie and I watched it 8 times in the cinema, causing me a small fortune. Since then I've watch it umpteen times on DVD. I could never get "Saturday Night Fever" but "Grease" was phenomenal to say the least.The whole of Side 1 which consisted of 5 songs were released as singles. This CD was sold to me at below the market price by a friend who somehow unbelievably doesn't like it. The songs were mesmerizing to say the least. The titled track 'Grease', 'Summer Nights', 'Hopelessly Devoted To You' , the joyful 'You're The One That I Want' and the heart wrenching 'Sandy', not to mentioned 'Beauty School Dropout' , the rock and rolling 'Grease Lightnin' sung by a then young and dashing John Travolta. Yeah this is one CD that's so good that I've run out of adjectives to describe it. There was a time when my eldest daughter was so caught up with the movie, that she have to watch it at least once day and these goes on for a month or two.There's a new version of this CD in the market that have another CD of unreleased tracks. I am toying with the idea of getting it but first I have to get rid of this first. DOP : An exchange of sort from an old friend.
