This is the kind of music I want my kids to listen to. Positive messages are intermixed with toe-tapping tunes and wonderful voice talents. There are two "d**n"s, and some very mild innuendos "test drive this American male" and "won't go all the way, but I'll go pretty far". They are quick and kids won't pick up on them; they're not nearly as bad as some make them out to be.

Sexual Content (Pause): Lots of sexual innuendo, particularly in "Ladies' Choice" and "I Can Hear the Bells". Violence (Not an Issue): None. Language (Pause): One use of D**n. Social Behavior (On): Positive messages of acceptance and sticking up for yourself. Racism and obesism are touched upon, but are portrayed in a negative light. Commercialism (Not an Issue): CD packaging unavailable for review. Drug/Alcohol/Tobacco (Not an Issue): None.

I love the original 1988 and Broadway musical Hairspray, and I am so happy that this album lives up to the Original Broadway Cast Recording. Nikki Blonsky's vocals are amazing, especially on Good Morning, Baltimore. Amanda Bynes and Zac Efron surprised me with great, but not excellent, voices. Elijah Kelley is my favorite singer out of the cast. His Run and Tell That really rocks. The adult cast does wonderfully, but the younger cast really stood out to me. These songs are sure to get you moving, and put you in a good mood. "Come So Far (Got So Far To Go)" is my favorite on the soundtrack, along with "Without Love," "You Can't Stop the Beat," and "I Can Hear the Bells." This album is a must-have if you love musicals or outstanding music.

JUST GO GET THIS THAT'S ALL I HAVE TO SAY BECAUSE IT JUST ROCKED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Love it! Just one warning -- there is a swear word in the lyrics of "You Can't Stop The Beat"....

I just went to Baltimore (that's my image, down town Baltimore;)) and thats where the movie took place! I love the movie, but I didn't like the song about the new girl in town.

Sex- (off)- In "Good Morning Baltiomor", there is a line that says- "There's the flasher who lives next door". In "The Legend of Mrs. Baltimor Crabs", it says, "I screwed the judges." In I can hear the bells it says some sugestive stuff such as- "Link and I are french kissing", "My tempiture is climbing", and "He touched me and love put me in a fix,"....In the next song 'Big Blonde and Beautiful Reprise", it says one line- "Get your hands on something small", and the last song 'Mamma I'm a Big Girl Now' it says "If I get a hicky don't have a cow". That is ti for sexual content. NEXT! Violence (On): There is no violence. NONE AT ALL! YAY! Swearing (Pause)- It says D*mn one time. ANd lastly- MESSAGES (Pause) There is some sexual romance mesages, but it's also about true love and imigration. AND Next................. Roll Model (On)- Nikki fights until she wins.
