The expectations were quite high though considering it was directed by animation legend - Ralph Bakshi and had top billed stars like Kim Basinger, Gabriel Bryne and Brad Pitt. <br><br>Anyway, the soundtrack was a treat and I still retain the original CD. My fav is 'Witch' by The Cult which has a fantastic intro. Apart from 'Under' by Brian Eno. The rest are equally good but these 2 really stand out.

The version used on the soundtrack is merely a remix of the song, which is actually quite good. The later efforts of the Thompson Twins leave something to be desired but 'Jane [Play With Me]' is far better than just about anything that they did after that 'Here's To Future Days' LP.

Who did that shitty "Blue Monday"-sampling song "How Does It Feel"? Hated that song.
