Nicole Kidman and Sandra Bullock star as sorceress sisters trying to break a curse that kills men who fall in love with them in the romantic comedy PRACTICAL MAGIC. The 1998 film strikes a variety of tones, so its soundtrack is an eclectic brew of genres and artists. Along with scores by composer Alan Silvestri, the tracks include romantic favorites by country (Faith Hill), R&B (Marvin Gaye) and rock (Elvis Presley) hitmakers, as well as off-the-beaten-path selections from the likes of Nick Drake. Stevie Nicks contributes a pair of performances, “If You Ever Did Believe” and a new version of her “Crystal,” both of which feature back-up vocals by Sheryl Crow. As well-matched to their scenes as these songs are, they're also plenty of fun on their own, and PRACTICAL MAGIC (MUSIC FROM THE MOTION PICTURE) will bewitch listeners this Halloween.
