Comments:
This soundtrack has some really memorable songs on it, like "Neutron
Dance" by the Pointer Sisters and "Axel F", that cool music they played
throughout the movie.  Overall though, it's not what I would consider
a must buy soundtrack.

Comments:
This soundtrack has some really good loud numbers, and a few  laid
back tunes as well, and overall is a great compilation.  The movie is
also pretty cool with such memorable lines as "You don't need TV if you
have TV Guide"

Comments:
Ah yes, one of the quintesential 80's movies, the soundtrack has
a lot of big names peforming a lot of lesser known songs.  The
two biggies of course being "If You Leave" and "Pretty In Pink."
If you like any of the other artists on this disc, then you'll probably
enjoy this soundtrack.

Title   : Valley Girl, Music From the Soundtrack
Label   : Rhino Records Inc.
Medium  : CD
TTime   : 29:55
Notes   : Plenty of notes on the movie, Valley Girl's, and the groups that
          perform on the  CD.  The Rhino records version of the CD is a
          re-released version that includes songes not on the original
          soundtrack and the liner notes tell you which songs have been added.

There's so much that I could say about this soundtrack.  All the songs
on this album are great but the most popular would have to be "I Melt
With You" and "Who Can It Be Now?"  I loved the liner notes because they
tell you what part of the movie most of these songs are playing during
and give you plenty of info. on the bands.  Any TRUE New Waver would
absolutely love this one!

Title   : Valley Girl, More Music From the Soundtrack
Label   : Rhino Records Inc.
Medium  : CD
TTime   : 33:59
Notes   : Plenty of notes on the movie, Valley Girl's, and the groups that
          perform on the  CD.  Gives info. on the songs that were on the
          original version of the soundtrack and the ones added for this
          version.  Also gives you info. on the songs that they added to
          this CD because they were songs that any Valley Girl would have
          listened too.

All the songs are great on this soundtrack.  Although all the songs on
this CD were not actually in the movie, they did a great job of picking
songs that would have been songs a TRUE Valley Girl would have listened
to.  My favorites on this CD were not actually in the movie, but are
still classic New Wave hits: "Mickey", "Cool Places", and "I Eat
Cannibals".  Any New Waver would love this one! :)
