I'd rather sit in my apartment and repeatedly punch myself in the balls than listen to Phil Collins. I listened to part of this album once, and it haunted me for days. Unless you are an avid homosexual, I'd stray far from any of his music. Once again, Phil Collins SUCKS!

I think that this soundtrack is very touching. Phil Collins did a good job in the music and the lyrics.

When looking at a huge music star such as Phil Collins, people automatically assume the best out of him. He has so many albums, fans and awards so thus, the general public assume that someone as high quality as him would give it his all. Putting aside the film, and when you really look at the music, you see he did.

From the opening song "Two Worlds", you can feel the confliction and pain he tries to presents in the words. From having the young ape killed to having Tarzan's parents killed by the jaguar, you can hear him trying to present the pain. When he gets to the lyrics "No words describe a mothers tear, no words can heal a broken heart...," you can feel that glitter of hope when she hears the babys' cry.

With the songs "Son of Man" and "Strangers Like Me", Phil tries to present the confusion and hardship of growing up in a world where everyone is so different from you. Phil strongly presents the determination and wonder in both these songs as you see Tarzan grow up into the man he becomes and falls in love for the first time. When the scene of them in the trees with the birds, you can feel the angst in Phil's voice representing the longing of Tarzan to understand what it is he is feeling.

With "Trashing The Camp" version with 'N Sync, it could of been better though. This song was probably the downfall all in all of the album, making it gain a bad rep with some of Phil's fans. But he brings it all back with the song "You'll Be In My Heart"

Whether people agree with it or not, Phil Collins sings wonderfully in this album in my opinion. If you can feel the emotions trying to be presented in the songs, the singer has done their job and Phil Collins certainly did this.

One thing I've come to realize: if a movie really works for you, chances are that the music soundtrack had a lot to do with it. And so it was for me and Disney's version of Tarzan. Unlike another Disney movie with similar themes about growing up that didn't work as well for me (i.e. The Lion King), Tarzan hooked me in immediately, largely because of Phil Collins' music.

I especially appreciated the musical departure from other Disney movies where the main characters sing the songs. In Tarzan, Collins' melodic voice serves as a third-person narrator, and is just so much more effective at conveying mood, while propelling the plot. Had the film followed the conventional Disney formula of character-singing, this would have turned into a real stinker, real fast.

My favorite song in the movie is "Son of Man" not only because of its catchy pop tune and insightful lyrics, but because the song so perfectly matches the sequence of Tarzan growing from a boy into manhood -- it's just a wonderful part of the entire film.

My only regret is that the songs are so short. Although Collins offers two versions of each song (with the exception of "Son of Man") on the CD, it would have been nice to hear some extended versions of the songs. Still, this is a great CD to have if you enjoyed the film.

Phil Collins SUCKS! This is a phrase i commonly hear when i tell people im a phil collins fan. Most fools have no idea that phil collins career isnt just a career Its a LEGACY. This man is so under appreciated for his skills it amazes me.

Phil starting out as a drummer for Genesis, when original lead singer Peter Gabriel (ALSO AMAZING) left he stepped up to the microphone and continued to be drummer during CONCERTS, and Studio.

Face Value showed as all the phil wasn't just a drummer and singer, but an independent song writer from Tony Banks, and Mike Rutherford (Genesis members).

Phil was a god in the 80's, then when the 90's came around people feel out of favor with the legend.

With Tarzan you can see that its the exact same thing.

So i say how can u critizce phil who stayed with Genesis for 26 years, and ran solo career, composed his music with a 40 piece big band (Phil Collins Big Band - Hot night in Paris), was also a TV star (Miami Vice).

See if u can do this within a decade
