| Editorial Reviews:
There is no sense picking up Duets or any of the Disney Karaoke series unless you, or whoever you are buying it for, has a karaoke machine, and Disney is forthright about letting potential buyers know it (the cover features a microphone prominently, and a TV screen below it alerts potential buddy-belters to its on-screen lyrics feature). The main consideration here, then, is not the music--which, for karaoke purposes, has to be kept fairly tepid--but the track selection. The producers picked wisely, going deep for half the songs and splitting the difference with a dose plucked from partner Pixar movies; thus, "Winnie the Pooh" butts up against "You've Got a Friend in Me" from Toy Story, etc. Vocal versions arrive on the heels of the instrumentals for anyone requiring a primer on inflection and phrasing, but the big fun, of course, is the side-by-side factor. Something about passing a mike back and forth, even when it's only in someone's basement, says "friends for life" as much as swapping diaries, only in a much cooler, if occasionally off-key, way. --Tammy La Gorce

| Customer Reviews: Good disc but too hard for children August 6, 2008 JulzC (boston, ma) This is a good disc but the songs have lots of words that go by very fast on the screen so children have a tough time keeping up with it. But then adults try to help and thats where things get funny... so a good disc, but not what I expected.
Interesting Concept... I Like it For a Different Reason October 30, 2004 George Buttner (Dayton, Ohio United States) 6 out of 9 found this review helpful
This CD, Disney Pixar Duets contains both instrumental and vocal versions of some favorite Disney and Pixar tunes. The idea is that you can get together with some friends or something and do karaoke. This doesn't really interest me, although what does interest me is the instrumental versions of the songs. I've always been a fan of enjoying just the music, without having the vocal tracks in it, although the vocal tracks are great too. Unfortunately, not all of the "instrumental" tracks are completely free of vocals, but it's still pretty neat.
Song selection includes two songs from The Lion King, two major songs from Disney Pixar movies (Toy Story and Monsters Inc.) and the hit from Hercules "I Won't Say (I'm in Love)" among others.
The provided leaflet includes the lyrics for all the songs, for purposes of the sing-along.
One other important thing that I should note is that many of the vocal tracks don't have the original artists, but overall I'd say they're still pretty good.
