Amazon.co.uk Review
An updated read on William Shakespeare's The Taming of the Shrew, Gil Junger's 10 Things I Hate About You is a teen comedy about two sisters on opposite ends of the social spectrum: one is pretty and popular, the older sister is bitter and vengeful. Family rules dictate that the younger sibling can't date until the older one has. You see where this is going. The soundtrack features Letters to Cleo in a 1970s mood covering Cheap Trick's "I Want You to Want Me" and Nick Lowe's "Cruel to Be Kind". Sweden's Cardigans include a rare B-side, "War". George Clinton's "Atomic Dog". Joan Armatrading's "The Weakness in Me". and Madness's "Wings of a Dove" still sound fresh. The only real misstep is Sister Hazel's "Your Winter". which sounds like a Seven Mary Three parody, full of breast-beating sincerity and lyrics that defy the laws of coherence. --Rob O'Connor

Customer Reviews

Fantastic! Buy it NOW!
Wow! What an excellent album - any review starting like this and it must be good! Just as the film had an air of teenage fun about it, the album manages to pull off the same stunt. Full of up-beat popular music, there should be a song to suit any occassion. Although there is the odd song that sounds 'off' (like Atomic Dog - George Clinton), the majority are bound to lift your spirits. When you first play the CD, you are welcomed by the catchy "I want you to want me", and from then on you know you are in for over one hour of tunes to brighten up even the dullest Monday morning. If you liked the film and want something to bring back the memories, or simply want an album that isn't full of doom or gloom, then this album could not come more highly recommended.

great but i wouldnt miss a few tracks
I loved the movie and I really enjoy listening to the band Letters to cleo, 'I want you to want me' and 'cruel to be kind' They are easy listening and are enjoyable the first time you hear them. They are a 'chick' rock band but arent heavy at all.

Equally I love semi sonic FNT. This is catchy and with nice guitar fill ins. ohh... and save ferris have a catchy little number.

However Im a bit disappointed with the saturday night and atomic dog. They are dull and dont really add anything to the soundtrack. Unless you like quack party tunes.

Overall, pretty good. Joan Armatrading and your winter are pretty songs too.

Acceptable but not perfect
This was a good soundtrack but it missed out the most important song (in my opinion) of the whole film - 'Bad Reputation' by Joan Jett & The Blackhearts. This is where Kat is first introduced and in my opinion is the best song of the lot! Still, this album was acceptable although there is definitely room for improvement
