Walking on Sunshine

Naturally, the soundtrack to the '80s period piece Walking on Sunshine is steeped in big hits of the decade; after all, the movie itself took its name from Katrina & the Waves' timeless single. The twist is, these aren't the original hit versions: they're exuberant, sometimes campy, re-recordings by the cast. This will appeal to fans of the film and all of its happy nostalgia, but it's likely to appeal only to fans of the film; most listeners will look elsewhere for the original hit versions. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
