Editorial Review
At first glance, the approach picked for De-Lovely will be familiar to
those who already own Red Hot + Blue: A Tribute to Cole Porter. On
both albums, contemporary pop stars cover classics by Porter. But many
of the interpretations on Red Hot + Blue were modernized, whereas the
approach on De-Lovely is more traditional---it's the soundtrack to a
biopic about Porter, after all, so a classic (though not quite period)
sound prevails. What's surprising is how well many of the singers
handle the songs without the crutch of a contemporary pop retooling.
Who would have thought that Alanis Morissette had such a natural
affinity for "Let's Do It (Let'sFall in Love)," for instance? She
fares equally well in her screen cameo, whereas Diana Krall sounds
superb on "Just One of Those Things" but looks horribly uncomfortable
in the film. Other good surprises include Robbie Williams's "It's
De-Lovely" and Kevin Kline as Porter, coming across as a more tuneful
Rex Harrison. Elvis Costello, meanwhile, confirms he's a better
songwriter than singer, and as Linda Porter, Ashley Judd is hesitant
at best. In a nice touch, a recording of Cole Porter himself
performing "You're the Top" provides the album's coda. --Elisabeth
