Amazon.co.uk Review
Fans of High School Musical can breathe easy: Based on this soundtrack, the sequel is just as good, and perhaps even better. Though its trailer asked "Are you ready for the start of something new?" HSM2 isn't turning the franchise into The Wire, and really is more of the same--which is, of course, totally fine by us. One of the most energetic tracks is Chad and Ryan's musical/baseball number "I Don't Dance," propelled by a cool big-band swing motif (fans of director Kenny Ortega's choreographic work for Xanadu will be reminded of that movie's mash-up of disco and swing in the "Dancin'" number). Once again Troy and Gabriella get the ballads, but "You Are the Music in Me" is a fine one and doesn't get bogged down in syrup. It also gets reprised by Troy and Sharpay in a rockier and arguably better version. This is typical of the fact that, overall, the bouncier tracks fare best: "All for One" (with its handclaps and surfy guitar licks), the s! ingle "What Time Is It" (the time of our lives, of course!), "Work This Out" (complete with percussive, well, workout). Of course everybody's favorite brother-sister team, Ryan and Sharpay, gets a couple of great vehicles: "Fabulous" and the zany, Hawaiian-flavored "Humuhumunukunukuapua'a," which more than anything else sounds like a tribute to the Disney princess of the 1960s: Annette Funicello. --Elisabeth Vincentelli

Hung in there with the first. However,this album has no artistic merit whatsover!! The worst thing any adult could do is take this in their car on a long journey - Be warned!!
 I've never seen such an awesome movie in my life! April 3, 2008
All i say is that this is quite possibly the most perfect, surreal movie ever created. Me and my friend Stephen Kane sat and watched it seven times and never got bored. We know all the songs and the words "What time is iiiitt??"
I 100% recommend this movie, it made my life.
A grease but better April 2, 2008
I know people say this is just like Grease The Musical: I find this really annoying there are millions of musicals out there and they pick on this one leave it alone it it brilliant!
My fave songs are:
What time is it
Faboulous
Work this out
You are the music in me (Gabriella/Sharpay)
I don't dance
Gotta go my own way
All for one
Bet on it
I find High School Musical better than High School Musical 2 can't wait for High School Musical 3 Senior Years
Is this album worth it? You can 'Bet On It' March 21, 2008

Phenomenally strong album from the young cast of HSM2.
Bet On It is clearly the stand out track, brilliantly performed and sung by Troy (Zac Efron). The whole album is an incredible listen and a must buy for any HSM fan.
Really good mix of songs, great =] January 1, 2008

I wasn't really keen on this album at first, having seen the first film and thought it all a bit 'cheesy', but when I turned it on I was quite surprised.
There are some slow songs, like Gotta go my own way, and some more pop songs, like Bet on it, sang by Zac Efron. The songs are all extremely catchy & will be in your head all day long!
A really brill CD, I'd recommend it to anyone
