RENT soundtrack to be released 9/27 (NOW available for pre-order!)#0

Posted: 8/3/05 at 1:31am

According to iTunes, the RENT movie soundtrack will be released on Tuesday, September 27th.

This is sooner than I could have hoped for. But still, I don't know how I'll wait that long!

At least we'll have something to tide us over for the two months until the wide release.

EDIT: There is still no cover art or track listing, but Amazon.com is taking pre-orders.

(You probably want to wait until the price goes down, which it probably will... Amazon.com has a tendency to make it higher than it is, and lower it as the release date comes closer, but sometimes the people who placed the pre-order when it was high get ripped off.)

Also take into consideration the "bonus material" iTunes has been boasting about.

"I mean, how many of us could honestly say that at one time or another he hasn't set fire to some great public building?"

SCORE! I have been so excited for this CD to come out. More excited than I think I have ever been for a CD in my whole life. I will probably be lined up at the nearest record store that morning, ready to dash right to the rack and snatch one up. I will listen to every song repeatedly and be lip-synching along in my little theater seat on the 23rd. Oh happy happy day!!

All this RENT stuff is so exciting I think I'm gonna hyperventilate soon. And yup, will have to buy it twice. Once on itunes and one hard copy for the pretty CD package. I can't wait.

Bonus stuff? What kind of bonus material do they have to include? Did somebody try to write another song? Another version?

WOW, aren't soundtracks usually released a week or so before a movie opens!? We RENTheads are blessed!! But I really can't decide if I want to hear all the "new" music before I see the movie...Hmmm, i'll have to think about that.

I wasn't going to get the soundtrack until after I saw the movie.. but this is so early.. it's so tempting. And bonus features from iTunes?! What are they trying to do to me?! I think I may just cave in..

i wonder if the soundtrack will have one of those "PARENTAL ADVISORY" warnings considering the amount of cursing and "adult themes" in the music. did they have one on the OBC?

the OBC recording didn't have a warning...but I think the standards were less strict 10 years ago, so, who knows?
