As created by renowned illustrator Gary Baseman, Disney's Teacher's Pet spins the wistful tale of Spot, a dog who wants to be a boy, but whose mad scientist/would-be benefactor miscalculates his dog-year math and gives the hapless hound the body of a middle-aged man instead. But as did South Park before it, the film adaptation of the Emmy honored series trumps its small-screen rival with an ambitious musical soundtrack that's not only an unexpected delight, but one whose songs and performances sometimes rival many an over-hyped, contemporary Broadway stage production in the bargain. After the bouncing teeny pop of co-star Christy Carlson Romano's title track cover dispenses with the youth marketing angle, the album settles into a collection that's split between the more traditional show sensibilities of songwriters Cheri Steinkeller, Randy Peterson and Kevin Quinn and Stephen James Taylor's more contemporary pop/swing/rock pastiche underscore. Broadway vet Nathan Lane infuses his title role with dollops of loopy sincerity and charm on the opening "I Wanna Be a Boy," the wistful ballad "A Boy Needs a Dog" and elsewhere, while Kelsey Grammer imparts his mad scientist turn "I, Ivan Krank" with a delightful, perfectly-pitched hammy bravura. Underappreciated musician/actor Jack Sheldon swings merrily through "Take the Money and Run" while Debra Jo Rupp, David Ogden Stiers, Megan Mullally, Jerry Stiller, Shaun Fleming and Paul Reubens variously make even the briefest of turns memorable on the singalong "Whole Bunch of World," the merry march "Small But Mighty" and the goofy canine affirmation of "Proud To Be a Dog." --Jerry McCulley

This is a very good CD. "Teacher's Pet" is my favorite song on the CD.The following is a reply to CowPunk©'s question: "What I really wanna know is; who did this arrangement of the 1956 Joe Lubin tune "Teacher's Pet"? (Doris Day recorded it in 1958) It's driving me wacky... I know it had to be one of my old '80's power pop faves now making a living in Toon Town cuz their kids are watching the same shows as mine. Which is cool- just who is it? I do love that Power Pop sound. CowPunk©" No, that's Christy Carlson Romano. She played Ren Stevens in "Even Stevens" and voices Kim in "Kim Possible"(both Disney Channel series). I agree about the sound.
 Better than Broadway January 21, 2004
The happiest score in years! These are songs to memorize and sing along with. More fun than a B'way cast album. Think of South Park, Family Guy or Simpsons, except that everyone can join in the song-fest!

Certainly some of the tunes are funny and some homages to Disney classics contained therein. Redeeming social value? Get a life! I believe the soundtrack in this case is worthless without the visuals. Anyway, "Teacher's Pet" is much better as a 30 min TV gig.What I really wanna know is; who did this arrangement of the 1956 Joe Lubin tune "Teacher's Pet"? (Doris Day recorded it in 1958) It's driving me wacky... I know it had to be one of my old '80's power pop faves now making a living in Toon Town cuz their kids are watching the same shows as mine. Which is cool- just who is it? I do love that Power Pop sound. CowPunk©

I'd like to discuss this soundtrack with anyone interested...especially you, Bondorf. My email address is Janarrah1@aol.com....I think this soundtrack was fairly radical for Disney...almost on par with the South Park soundtrack. ONe of the songs struck me as a (sunconcious?) take on "Be Prepared" from The Lion King...but since they got away with using the Blue Fairy/Pincocchio riff and this is a Disney production, the rules of fair use are pretty flexible. What other songs did any of you hear echos of in this soundtrack?
