The Chipmunks may have been CGI-ized but the helium-distorted, super-high-pitched singing style of Alvin, Simon and Theodore has been preserved. If you have kids or are a kid at heart (with a special fondness for novelty tunes), this is a goldmine. The 'munk classic "The Chipmunk Song (Christmas, Don?t Be Late)" is covered twice: the "DeeTown OG Mix" is a fairly faithful version, while the "DeeTown Rock Mix" goes the emo-lite route; another nugget, "Witch Doctor," also gets dusted up, with the addition of a so-so rap. Nice bonus: The 1958 versions of these two songs are included as well, for old times' sake. Newer tracks are just as zany. The CD starts off with a take on David Powter's hit "Bad Day," which sounds completely insane done Chipmunk-style; "Funky Town" is downright hair-rising. The DeeTown Syndicate not only produced it all but also contributes several songs of its own that waffle between corny hip-hop ("How We Roll") and contempo Disney Channel style ("Coast 2 Coast"). It's all really nutty and really fun. --Elisabeth Vincentelli

5 out of 5 stars Great music!   August 14, 2008
My daughers love this soundtrack and ask to hear it all the time. They dance all over the place. Newer versions are more hip and up to today's standards so makes fun for everyone to listen. Great buy!


4 out of 5 stars A Classic Made New   August 7, 2008
This is a great new twist on an old favorite! This CD includes the classic Christmas song we've all come to love, but also includes modern day hits that the chipmunks spice up in their own original way! It's great fun and I would recommend it to anyone who needs a good laugh after a hard day-as "Bad Day" is the first song featured on the CD and with those little chipmunk voices it can't help but bring a smile to your face!


5 out of 5 stars These songs...   August 2, 2008
...will be in your head forever. That's because your kids will play this CD over and over.


5 out of 5 stars Who doesn't love the Chipmunks??   July 31, 2008
If you've seen the new Chipmunk movie, you'll love this soundtrack. My daughter just loves listening to this CD - she especially loves the new "Witch Doctor", and jams to it when it comes on (she's four). Although I always thought the older version of the Chipmunks was inventive (one guy doing all the voices), I've been won over by the "new" voices. All three guys did such a great job, and were perfect picks. If you like to turn up the volume and rock out in your car, this is the soundtrack for you!


5 out of 5 stars Alvin and the Chipmunks soundtrack   July 23, 2008
The kids love it. Same quality as in the shops only at a much better price.I buy everything that I can from Amazon. I always check Amazon before going to the shops. They have a much better range than the shops and even with paying postage, are still cheaper.Some items that I've bought have even been cheaper new( from Amazon) than I can get them for second hand ( elsewhere) and that includes express international postage on top.
