    5 out of 5 stars A Personal Favorite   July 14, 2004
    Gary F. Taylor (Biloxi, MS USA)
    As a film, WILD ORCHID is only so-so; as a soundtrack, however, it is easily among the best of its decade, a brilliant collage of Latin American, alternative, hard rock, and elegant pop. It has long been one of my favorites, and if your taste runs to all of the above, it will like become one of yours as well.

    The opening titles cut, the instrumental "Paradise," is languid, sultry, sexy and features a flawless trumpet lead--but the treats have just begun: Maragreth Menezes' "Elejibo" and David Rudder's "Dark Secrets" set a high standard when it comes to sharp-edged, vigorious Latin sounds, and although the various cuts are very, very ecclectic in style each one is beautifully, flawlessly performed, all the way from Nasa's hard rocking but strangely spiritual "Magic Jeweled Limousine" to my own personal favorite, the darkly cynical "Promised Land" by Underworld.

    This is truly an inexhaustible recording, always seductive, alternating high energy edges with introspection, every cut memorable. Strongly recommended.

    3 out of 5 stars OK...but where is that one song??   May 8, 2003
    This soundtrack is ok, but where is the one, really incredible song that is playing while she is arriving in Rio? And what is it called? Having this song on the album would make it complete.


    5 out of 5 stars The most Sexiest and the most Erotic soundtrack ever   January 29, 2003
    Santos Diaz (New york, NY)
    The movie wasnt as bad as people made it out to be but its no oscar winner either.But the film music captured the whole aspect of Brazil from the beautiful scenery to the beatiful people.The soundtrack is truly the most erotic music i ever heard and you truly feel like you've been to Brazil even if you were never there before.

    This Soundtrack will take you to a Paradise unimaginable!! You will find yourself lost in another world and have no desire to return to reality. You will find a way to stay on that Island because there is nothing like it.
