I'm actually not a fan of Bryan Adams and I have never owned a CD from him, which is why I have no possibility of comparison to other BA-albums. I bought this CD because I have seen the film and was impressed by the soulful music. I have known only the German version of the songs from the movie - which I liked tremendously well. When I bought "Spirit- Stallion of the Cimarron" with songs by Bryan Adams, I did not know what to expect. However, I was pleasantly surprised about the fact that the songs sounded even better than the German translation! Just so feelingly that one places the tears come into my eyes. Highly Recommended!
