Reviews Customer Reviews for Riding In Cars With Boys      Oldies, but goodies!      Rating:      I love this soundtrack (along with the movie.) The songs are groovy. I really like 'I Got You Babe' by Sonny and Cher, and 'All I Have To Do Is Dream' by The Everly Brothers. The music fits the movie well, and I'd recommend this album.     Customer Reviews for Riding In Cars With Boys Cd      Wow      Rating:      I say wow in the sense that, this soundtrack is good in the sense that it fits the movie so perfectly. Drew Barrymore is absolutely incredible in this role of a young teen mother raising a child, trying to move on but somehow things always get crushed on her. The soundtrack walks through the years perfectly, well I would have thrown Vic Damone aside, Penny Marshall directed to the extreme on this fabulous movie starting from the year I was only 15. Time slips by and the music tells the story along with the story thats told being lifted by the music. Hey Thats my story and I'm sticking to it. Editorial Reviews for Riding In Cars With Boys Audio Cd      Amazon.com      Director Penny Marshall's Drew Barrymore-starring adaptation of Beverly Donofrio's memoir of single motherhood draws on a number of movie-familiar oldies while dropping a few surprises along the way. Best of the rarities is the Jelly Beans' raw blurt of frustrated romance, "I Wanna Love Him So Bad," which links a bit of Shangri-Las-style melodrama to the group's R&B harmonies. Sonny & Cher's "I Got You Babe" takes on weight in light of Donofrio's lower-class roots, with the Janis Joplin/Big Brother version of "Piece of My Heart" voicing both love's pains and feminism's rise. While Rare Earth funk-rock tune "I Just Want to Celebrate" was heard to less literal effect in the Gulf War drama Three Kings, family outfit the Five Stairsteps' soul hit "Ooh Child" remains lovely and totally apropos. Finally, the Sir Douglas Quintet Tex-Mex rocker "She's About a Mover" is a full-on evocation of Barrymore's "bad girl" charms. --Rickey Wright
