Amazon.co.uk Review
Rugrats is one of the hippest kids' shows around. With music by former Devo leader Mark Mothersbaugh, psychedelic Klasky-Csupo animation and episodes like "Tricycle Thief" and "The Baby Vanishes", how could it be otherwise? And these tunes (mainly by Mothersbaugh) bridge demographics as nimbly as the show itself does. Rugrats fans of all ages will love Elvis Costello's "Throw My Toys Around" (performed by No Doubt), Angelica's screechy rendition of Blondie's "One Way or Another", Devo's goofy take on the Chipmunks' "Witch Doctor", the Subgenius-inspired "A Baby Is a Gift of Bob", the we-are-the-alternaworld star power of "This World Is Something New to Me" and kid-friendly raps from Rakim and Busta Rhymes. This "enhanced" CD also contains commercials for the movie and video game. --Richard Gehr

Customer Reviews

an avg soundtrack
For those of you that don't know The Rugrats is in fact a children's television programme and is in fact one of the coolest cartoons around (ask any kid). Well just as Beavis and Butthead and South Park have done, this is just another cartoon that has made its way onto the big screen and some of the biggest pop stars in the world help out with the soundtrack. The soundtrack includes all sorts of different genres such as the r and b of "Take Me There" by Blackstreet (featuring Mya And Mase), the rock of "I Throw My Toys Around" by No Doubt and Elvis Costello, the hip hop of "Take The Train" by Rakim and Danny Saber as well as the folk rock of "All Day" by Lisa Loeb. Other artists on this great and diverse soundtrack include Busta Rhymes, Beck, Iggy Pop, B52's and Patti Smith. Overall it's a great album, but beware it's not necessarily an album for children as the TV programme is.
