Here’s my Barbie CD collection! It took quite a while to get all of them. I wish there were more released after Secret Door, but with CDs being a dying medium, I can see why they didn’t. Also most of them lost their original cases.
Princess and the Pauper Bonus Music CD
This is the bonus soundtrack that came with the DVD I got for my birthday. It has 7 of the 12 songs and I used to play it constantly when I got my first CD player.
Barbie Sings! The Princess Movie Collection
I had to hold back a squeal finding this one because I got it for 99 cents at Goodwill. It has all 12 songs from Princess and the Pauper, as well as the songs from Rapunzel, and music from Swan Lake and Nutcracker. It also has a booklet with pretty movie stills and lyric pages. I’m really happy to have this one.
Songs from Fairytopia
This is the cast recording for Barbie Live! In Fairytopia. I was able to get it on Amazon a few years back for cheap. Not my favorite musical, but it still has a lot of great songs. I still wish I could’ve seen this show, or that they released a professional recording of it on video/DVD.
The Barbie Diaries Movie Soundtrack
This one was VERY hard to find. It only came with a gift set version of the movie that my Grandmother ultimately got me for a birthday present. It sucks that there are only 5 songs on it, and none of them are sung by Skye Sweetnam! I was really hoping for a clean version of “Note to Self”. Still, I’m glad I have it because I got to hear full versions of some of the songs that I couldn’t listen to online at the time. I feel a little bad that I lost the sleeve it came in.
Barbie Diaries Bonus CD Sampler
This came with my Barbie Diaries Barbie doll. It has 3 of the same songs as the soundtrack, so I didn’t get anything new unfortunately. The back of the cover did have official lyrics, though, so that is nice.
CHARMZ
Another SUPER hard find. I only have this one because I got it off a seller on eBay. It’s available on iTunes, but only in Australia, where the band is from. Charmz was a girl-band put together via a contest to promote The Barbie Diaries, and they shelled out this album of cover songs. The girls aren’t too bad for young teens, but I mostly got it for collector’s value as well as having a full version of “I Don’t Wanna Sleep” and those awesome karaoke tracks.
Magic of the Rainbow: Songs Inspired by the Movie
I found this one on a fluke while searching Amazon a few years back. I heard the track “I Must Be Strong” on YouTube and decided to buy the CD used from a seller. I don’t even know where or how this album came to be, but it’s a really interesting find! It’s basically a musical re-telling of Magic of the Rainbow. I really like a couple of the tracks on it, but like CHARMZ it’s mostly for collection purposes.
A Christmas Carol
It took me forever to get this one. I just couldn’t find it anywhere for a price that wasn’t totally outrageous. Thankfully, an eBay seller was merciful and sold it to me for just a few bucks. I adore Melissa Lyons’s voice, so having her sing Christmas songs is just nice. I like to have it playing in the background during the winter season.
Secret Door
I actually bought the digital version of the soundtrack when the film first came out, but once I discovered there was a physical copy too I just HAD to get it. The cover is really sparkly! And with it, my collection is complete!
