| Editorial Reviews:
Album Description "The music is vitally intrinsic to Latter Days," says Cox, who had a firm idea of what the movie would sound like as he was forming his vision of what the movie would look like. Three of the film's original songs (More, Another Beautiful Day and Tuesday, 3:00am) were written by Cox during pre-production to serve as a commentary on the main story. In the movie these songs are performed by Christian's best friend Julie (Rebekah Jordan), an aspiring singer/songwriter. Coincidentally Rebekah Jordan was signed to a record deal with Clive Davis during the production of Latter Days, mimicking the story line penned by Cox. Soulful vocalist Nita Whitaker performs these three tracks on the soundtrack due to contractual exclusivity in Ms. Jordan's record deal.

If you liked the movie.... December 3, 2004 20 out of 20 found this review helpful
You'll like the CD. If you read the liner notes (as another reviewer evidently failed to do) you will see that the artist/roommate from the movie was actually signed by Clive Davis and was contractually not allowed to appear on the soundtrack (which was evidently an after-thought since the movie was the primary focus of C. Jay Cox.)
So, it's a little disappointing that some of the songs are not by the same artist as the movie, but it's still good overall, and if you're a crazy Latter Days fan, you won't mind.
Just the liner notes, pictures, and the "Abide With Me" track was worth the price.
Recommended overall.
PERFECT companion to the movie! August 6, 2005 18 out of 18 found this review helpful
To me, the movie LATTER DAYS was the "WILL AND GRACE" of the big screen. Sure the movie has gay characters, but it is a movie for everyone to enjoy. It is a timeless love story with outstanding performances by the entire cast. Movies like this will make viewers more aware that whether the leads are straight or gay, a great movie is a great movie. Just as WILL AND GRACE has made millions comfortable to have them in their homes each week, a movie like this should be welcomed in anyone's collection.
Of course, we all know that Rebekah Jordan does not appear in this soundtrack to sing the 3 songs she performed in the movie. Unfortunately, licensing fees were just prohibitive at the time the soundtrack was produced. Who knew at the time the movie, DVD and soundtrack would become best sellers?
The singer, Nita Whitaker, who covered those songs was well chosen as she has a similar voice, although I'm the first to admit Rebekah Jordan is truly wonderful and unreplaceable.
What is great about the entire soundtrack is the fact that you can play it in yor car and every note makes you recall unforgettable scenes in the movie. It's like watching the film in your mind. Just like the DVD, it is a collection you can listen to day after day and never tire of it.
All 17 tracks are wonderful easy listening music - there's nothing that you'll want to "skip" over.
I hope you will order a copy of the soundtrack as a companion for your DVD. And if you haven't ordered the DVD, you must buy one immediately, it is going to go down as a classic. I hope eventually it is the type of production that every home (not just gay households) will embrace!
ONE OF THE MOST TOUCHING LOVE STORIES OF THE NEW MILLENIUM December 18, 2004 9 out of 10 found this review helpful
Gay love stories like Torch Song Trilogy don't come along often in the trite genre of Gay Cinema, but this one was way more enjoyable than most. Beautiful actors and beatiful performances with a heaping side of comic zingers and situations made this a movie to remember. Make sure to get the soundtrack ... Man on a Mission will get you pumping at the gym and Hymn for Those Left Behind is the perfect, 12:00 midnight ... candles burning ... glass of wine ... gentle rain ... "That lousy S.O.B. left me" songs.
Best Soundtrack to one of the Sweetest movies ever December 11, 2004 6 out of 7 found this review helpful
Now like everyone else I'm a little upset that Rehakah Jordan isn't doing the singing but still the songs are great. And the other reviewers who are putting up awful comments why waste your breath those of us who love it, will love it. Buy it great! Great Songs! Great Movie!
Soundtrack great - protected CD is NOT! October 29, 2005 5 out of 11 found this review helpful
I purchased this CD to download into my Ipod. Guess what? It's going to take me hours if I can even do it. Whoever released this CD has made it nearly impossible to download and it is a real problem to even get it to play on your computer, unless you're using Windows Media Player. This sucks. I bought the music and have no way of listening to it except in my car or on my computer. Before buying this, beware! It's so far over the top with protection you might never get to listen to it.
