Album Notes Though it contains the music from the box-office record-breaking romantic comedy starring Julia Roberts and Cameron Diaz, there's another agenda at work on this album. It doubles as a tribute to '60s popmeisters Burt Bacharach and Hal David, and is populated by a coterie of contemporary artists offering up their own interpretations of classic Bacharach/David songs, many of which were made famous by Dionne Warwick. Mary Chapin Carpenter takes a modern glance at romantic disillusion on her version of "I'll Never Fall In Love Again." Elsewhere, neo-folk diva Ani DiFranco reinvents "Wishin' And Hopin." Tony Bennett provides a brief break in format with an assured rendition of the evergreen "Just The Way You Look Tonight."
Editorial Reviews ...MY BEST FRIEND'S WEDDING will make you take a vow--of dedication to the eternal appeal of Bacharach and Hal David's standards. - Rating: B Entertainment Weekly
