Description
Muriel’s Wedding 1994
This soundtrack captures the essence of the movie. There is both a sense of humor with the cheesy ’70s picks and a strange sense of longing in those same songs. Hidden under the kitsch, there is a real sense of hope, and that is what both the movie and the album are about. The numbers written for the movie are few, mainly “Bridal Dancing Queen,” which nicely expands on the ABBA number. With everything from the Carpenter’s “We’ve Only Just Begun” to “Waterloo,” this ompilation is a lot of fun, and as long as you like reliving the ’70s a bit, this album is worth a listen.
