We All Love Ennio Morrico. has been added to your Cart. And while the artists come from very diverse genres, the album holds together well. Things start off on a syrupy note with Dion's "I Knew I Loved You," a ballad from 1984's Once Upon a Time in America (to which Alan and Marilyn Bergman added lyrics in 2006). But fortunately the CD quickly recovers and goes on to survey most of Morricone's styles, from the dissonance of his spaghetti Western scores to his mod period to his lush orchestral vistas.
There's the love the performers apparently have for Morricone's music. Naturally, because they're an amazingly diverse cast of performers, none of them love him the same way. Some love him romantically - Renée Fleming's big-hearted "Come Sail Away" - some love him narcissistically - Celine Dion's dolled-up "I Knew I Loved You" - and some love him quite physically - Denyce Graves' hot-blooded "Could Be Heaven.
WHAT a strange little album. Bruce Springsteen tries his hand at Once Upon A Time In The West, Quincy Jones and Herbie Hancock tackle The Good, The Bad And The Ugly, while Metallica make a heavy-metal mockery of The Ecstasy Of Gold. If it all wasn't so tragically bad, you'd have to laugh.
