Details: Amazon.ca The Cure and a reggae beat certainly make strange bedfellows as, one assumes, do Adam Sandler and a girl with no short-term memory. In that sense, the 50 First Dates soundtrack is a good accompaniment to a fluffy romantic comedy in which one of the main characters is perpetually living in the past. It's also a fitting follow-up to that other Sandler/Barrymore vehicle, The Wedding Singer. (Take a set by Robbie Hart, add a topical shirt, and voila: a new soundtrack is born.) To those who can't get enough of '80s hits like Bryan Ferry's "Slave to Love" and the Cars' "Drive, "setting them to an island beat will likely seem whimsical, charming, and perfect for barbecue weather. For those who are glad the '80s are gone, this CD is a pass. And for Sandler-completeists who crave lighthearted, comic tunes like "Forgetful Lucy," well, you obviously own this already. --Leah Weathersby Product Description Imagine having to win over the girl of your dreams ... every friggin' day. That's the Adam Sandler-+Drew Barrymore romantic comedy 50 First Dates. Now imagine today's top artists recording new versions of classic '80s love songs in reggae style. That's the 50 First Dates soundtrack. From Wyclef & Eve covering The Outfield's "Your Love" and UB40 with The Police's "Every Breath You Take" to Jason Mraz with Modern English's "I Melt With You," and Seal on Echo and the Bunnymen's "Lips Like Sugar," 50 First Dates is the ultimate musical first date.
