Editorial Reviews:

Amazon.com
Put together by Abba's own Benny Andersson and Bjoern Ulvaeus, Mamma Mia! manages to cram over 20 of the Swedish supergroup's songs into a threadbare plot. It goes a little like this: Young Sophie is getting married and she's trying to identify which of three men is her father. That's about it. Wisely, the musical doesn't mess around with the songs, save for the insertion of some dialogue or for having some of them performed by a man (it works amazingly well). Abba fans will jump on this import of the London production, but traditional fans of musical theater should consider it as well. After all, Andersson and Ulvaeus's songs have always felt as if they were more than isolated pop gems and actually belonged to a longer narrative. --Elisabeth Vincentelli

5 out of 5 stars Mama Mia   September 7, 2008
Excellent production!! The film version sound track faithfully reproduced
the ABBA music, but the cast singing was just acceptable. Unfortunately,
the CD cannot show the beautiful scenery/setting for the movie version.
Highly recommend the Broadway cast CD over the movie CD!!



5 out of 5 stars mama mia broadway sound track   September 1, 2008
IT IS A WONDERFUL SOUND TRACK. I SAW THE MOVIE AND THE C.D. REMINDS ME OF THE SCENES IN THE MOVIE. EXCELLENT!!!


5 out of 5 stars Movie   September 1, 2008
I have seen the movie and highly recommend it to everyone who enjoys light hearted musicals. UNFORTUNATELY, I have yet to see or receive the DVD that I ordered on 7/20/08.


4 out of 5 stars great soundtrack   August 31, 2008
If you love abba, you've got to own this soundtrack. It is a london production though, so the accent in the spoken parts bothers me a bit. Still, a great CD.


5 out of 5 stars Fabulous!   August 29, 2008
Hands down-this CD doesn't disappoint. You know what you are getting, if you have seen the musical-but if you haven't-it's still a great purchase. Great music, great cast, just good music. I have seen the musical on broadway and am addicted to it.
