LEARN TO BE LONELY (by Minnie Driver: Phantom of The Opera movie soundtrack)

SUMMARY:                                    RUNNING TIME: 2:21 Min.

As its finale, actress Minnie Driver performs this short ballad for 2004’s Phantom of the Opera movie soundtrack.  The tune is heard in the film’s closing credits. 

REVIEW:

Though young Emmy Rossum became the instant star of 2004’s Phantom, Rossum’s co-star, Minnie Driver, delivers a knockout tune on her own.  Boosted by a lullaby-like melody and poignant lyrics, Driver’s low-key track transforms “Learn to Be Lonely” into an underrated gem.  Not only is this song the soundtrack’s sole original tune, Driver confirms that she’s one of this Phantom’s best creative elements.  

BRIAN’S ODD MOON RATING:                        8 Stars

Note: Michelle Pfeiffer’s “Never Forget” from the 2017 Murder on the Orient Express movie soundtrack is also highly recommended.
