"a pathetic, miserable waste of recording material. I can hear her addressing her contestants now... "Who here thought the American Who Wants To Be A Millionaire CD was worth buying?"ALL of the songs on the disc are only related to the show in the loosest possible way. They don't evern bother to throw in a piece of the actual theme music, instead doing a ridiculous dance tune that bears very little resemblance to the theme song. I don't need to phone a friend to see that I should be instead buying the British import CD with its 78 tracks(!) of almost every musical line from the show, as well as radio and dance club mixes of the show's music. It cost me about 25 dollars, and when combined with the board game (which is wonderfully done and worth every penny if you're a fan of the game), it makes for a wild evening of entertainment. Definitely seek out the Brit CD, don't fall victim to the American disc; it's a purchase that's about as smart as missing a 100 dollar question."

"What makes the Who Wants To Be a Millionaire soundtrack so good?
Is it? A. The most popular music dedicated to money? B. The hit single I Wanna be a Millionaire by pop duo Jack and Jemma? C. To hear Regis Philbin actually sing and a remix of the Millionaire theme song by Remixer John Griffin? or D. All of the above?. If that is your final answer this soundtrack is for you with fun oldies and toe-tapping tunes. But you'll mainly love the soundtrack's main single the earlier mentioned I Wanna Be A Millionaire this song has always been one of my favorites since I got the soundtrack and it remains one of my favorite tracks. In between the songs are also short clips of Who Wants To Be A Millionaire's greatest moments. The Soundtrack also features our awesome TV host Regis Philbin singing his only single in 1968 Pennies From Heaven if you haven't heard him sing I strongly recommend you get this album before Regis's 1968 debut It's Time for Regis. If you are a Millionaire Fan or not get this album and pull up a chair relax and dream of money when you listen,
Enjoy,
Regis {REGIS PHILBIN RULES AND PROUD TO BE REGIS'S #1 FAN}
