| | Album Notes and Credits | Notes & Personnel Info |  | This is an Enhanced CD, which contains both regular audio tracks and multimedia computer files. |  | Suitably, The Princess Diaries 2: Royal Engagement sports a more grown-up, developed track listing than its predecessor. Like The Princess Diaries, this album boasts teen pop aplenty, but it's more distinctive and from bigger names: along with Disney regular Raven's "This Is My Time," songs like Kelly Clarkson's "Breakaway," Lindsay Lohan's "I Decide," Avril Lavigne's "I Always Get What I Want," and Pink's "Trouble" instantly boost the album's star power. The album also makes stabs at sounding mature with Norah Jones' cover of "Love Me Tender" and the similarly smoky jazz-pop of Rene? Olstead's "A Love That Will Last" before retreating into the sickly sweetness of Raven and Julie Andrews' duet, "Your Crowning Glory," which reassures princesses of all ages that the right princes for them will find their hearts to be the most beautiful things about them. Musically, The Princess Diaries 2: Royal Engagement is bigger and marginally better than the previous film's soundtrack, but it still has some conflicting messages about girlhood and womanhood underneath its pop veneer. ~ Heather Phares |  | This sequel to the popular PRINCESS DIARIES collection may go down as Norah Jones's teen-flick soundtrack debut; her version of Elvis Presley's "Love Me Tender" finds the singer at her offhanded best, sliding smoothly through the classic song like she'd just written it herself. A gentle Celtic tinge lurks underneath the pop hooks of Kelly Clarkson's anthemic "Breakaway," while Avril Lavigne's attractive retro-punk persona makes its presence felt in the bratty "I Always Get What I Want," and Pink's "Trouble" gives a knowing nod to 1980s rock. Julie Andrews, no stranger to family-oriented movies, makes a welcome appearance singing with the teen idol Raven on the beguiling "Your Crowning Glory," while Wilson Phillips turns in a version of the Beach Boys' "Dance, Dance, Dance" that recalls nothing so much as the glory days of the Go-Go's. |
