Original score written by Richard Rodney Bennett. Not surprisingly, we have a cornucopia of love songs here, the best of them perhaps being Elton John doing Gershwin on "But Not For Me." (The older rockers get, the more they want to do pop standards.) John also is heard on his own "Crocodile Rock" and "Chapel Of Love," and when he's not singing, we are getting remakes of "La La La (Means I Love You)" and "Smoke Gets In Your Eyes." Well, what did you expect from a movie that has four weddings in it? And speaking of the funeral, the album concludes with John Hannah's reading of W.H. Auden at the movie's most solemn moment. Thankfully, the film itself ends on a more up note, and you can always program your CD player to play only the wedding material. ~ William Ruhlmann
