Danny Elfman Beetlejuice (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) 2/17/23

Danny Elfman Beetlejuice (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) 2/17/23All music written by Danny Elfman. All Danny Elfman tracks are DDD while the 2 Belafonte tracks are AAD. Magic always happens when Danny Elfman teams up with director producer Tim Burton. BEETLEJUICE represents this team's second outing together, the first being 1986's PEE WEE'S BIG ADVENTURE. Elfman has a knack for combining classical motifs with pop and ballroom dance to create bouncy yet mildly creepy scores. BEETLEJUICE is no exception. Elements

1 Time (You and I) (Put a Smile on DJ's Face Mix)

proving just how powerful and tight Bob's studio sessions could be

and his emotive singing carries every tune

and Glover's vocal gymnastics and impassioned delivery vault things past into more rarified air

placing the gentle instrumental "Sweet and Low" (the only track where Lally plays a prominent role) after the exhaustive cacophony of "23 Beats Off

all threaded into the Killers' trademark dance-rock

incorporating more stream-of-consciousness poetic imagery

BRAND NEW EYES is the band's most credible album to date

and their combination of arena-sized guitar-pop

and comes off like a well-crafted folk-rock update

It's a long way from intimate folk songs recorded in a remote Wisconsin cabin
