ACROSS THE UNIVERSE - MUSIC FROM THE MOTION PICTUREDELUXE - 2 DISC VERSION
A love story set in the 1960's amid the turbulent years of anti-war protest, mind exploration and rock `n roll. Jude (Jim Sturgess) and Lucy (Evan Rachel Wood), along with a small group of friends and musicians, are swept up into the emerging anti-war and counterculture movements with 'Dr. Robert' (Bono) and 'Mr. Kite' (Eddie Izzard) as their guides.
FEATURING SONGS FROM THE GREATEST SONGWRITERS OF ALL TIME, PERFORMED BY THE CAST INCLUDING EVAN RACHEL WOOD, JIM STURGESS, DANA FUCHS, MARTIN LUTHER McCOY, BONO, JOE COCKER AND EDDIE IZZARD
Package art will incorporate stills from pivotal scenes from the movie and a 16-page folder foldout poster with a strawberry image.

Given a track record littered by misfired oddities like the Bee Gees starring in the 1978 movie version of Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, successfully transforming The Beatles' epochal oeuvre into film musicals has been an elusive alchemy. Yet director Julie Taymor's 1968-centered, socio-political romance is more than just a stunning visual achievement. Its soundtrack brings a crucially intimate, emotionally engaging sensibility to its rich catalog of Beatles source material. Using an approach she rightly dubbed 'organic,' Taymor never gets too ambitious with the original arrangements, balancing the plaintive, often stark performances of central young stars Jim Sturgess and Evan Rachel Wood with equally compelling turns by supporting players Carol Woods and Joe Anderson. The stars successfully evoke early Beatlemania via the energetic charms ofSturgess' 'All My Loving' and Wood's 'It Won't Be Long,' then get straight to the canon's often melancholy heart on his take of 'In My Life,' and her gentle cover of 'Blackbird.' Taymor's use of star turns--the entire point of too many Beatles-rooted projects--is as sparing as it is deft. Eddie Izzard's effusive 'Being for the Benefit of Mr. Kite' is the product of several edited improvisations, while U2's Bono and Edge re-imagine 'Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds' by way of Pink Floyd. Joe Cocker's swamp-dirge 'Come Together' shows why he's long been one of the best interpreters of the Lennon-McCartney catalog, and Dana Fuchs alternately evokes the heavenly and hellish via her tender 'Dear Prudence,' as well as her manic, Joplin-channeling burn through 'Helter Skelter.' Elsewhere on the CD, Bono teams with Secret Machine for the straightforward 'I Am the Walrus,' while the Dallas indie rockers also take dream-pop turns on the instrumental 'Flying' and George Harrison's haunting 'Blue Jay Way.' Remarkably, Taymor claims the bulk of the performances here were not lip-synced, but recorded live as the cameras rolled.--Jerry McCulley
Customer Reviews Average Rating: 
Rating:  - If you loved the movie, you'll like the soundtrack
I originally purchased the single disc version of this soundtrack, but after a few weeks of listening to it, and seeing the movie another time, I decided that I wanted ALL of the songs. The songs are slightly different from the movie, presumably to make a better soundtrack experience, but only a close listener should be able to discern the differences. As a whole, if you love the movie, or The Beatles, then you'll like this soundtrack.
Rating: - wonderful music!!!!
if you love the Beatles, then you will love this CD. its so wonderful and every song is completely different...modern with a Beatles twist, Bono is great, as well as Eddie Lizzard. voices are soothing and easy to listen to. definitely a great CD and a great movie.
Rating: - See the movie too!
The music from the movie "Across The Universe" is just as outstanding as the film itself. This will stir emotions in you that have been dormant for decades. The performances are truly stellar. This CD is in my top three list of best music of all time.
Rating: - Across the Universe
Really happy with with CD. Music follows same order as it does in the movie.Only a few songs left out.Disappointed I Want You was not on it, but all in all am satisfied.
Rating:  - Awesome!
We thoroughly enjoyed the movie and the soundtrack puts you right back there. My only quibble is that it is missing one or two tracks from the movie.
