When I was a little kid, sometimes I'd stay up to watch movies with my parents. My dad liked watching action and horror movies. My mom liked watching musicals and romantic comedies.

"The Pirate Movie" was one of my mom's favorites since she was a kid too and it also became one of mine too. For her, it's the best of both worlds because it's a musical and a romantic comedy. At the time, I really didn't appreciate my time laughing, singing and dancing along to the movie and the music of "The Pirate Movie" until I lost my mom to cancer when I was 14. Now, those are some of my favorite memories of her.

Recently, I happened along the bargain-bin at the local department store's music section when I found the soundtrack for only $1 and bought it. After listening to it, I watched the movie again and thought of Mom.

After looking at YouTube's selection of music from the movie, I've decided that I'd upload the entire soundtrack in a good quality for everyone's enjoyment.

This is dedicated to my Mother. I miss you Mom.

The music and story of "The Pirate Movie" (1982) is a re-envisioning of the classic Gilbert and Sullivan operetta "The Pirates of Penzance" (1879) which has been revived many times in theaters throughout the world ever since.

Although the plot line follows the basic operetta "Penzance", it's script and music were written to fit the modern audiences. And although some of the music follows the originals, they were rearranged to modernize them with a bit of pop flair but many new original songs were added but most of the traditional music was omitted.

With the movie poster tag line: "Buckle Your Swash and Jolly Your Roger for the Funniest Rock 'N Rollickin' Adventure Ever!" This movie is VERY 80's. With it's big hair, spandex costumes, and synthesizer music, there is no mistaking that the classic "Penzance" was Rubik's Cube shifted and updated to fit the tastes of the times.

When the movie was released, it was poorly received by critics however it did make enough money at the box office to make it's money back. Over the years, airings on cable TV and home video sales turned a profit. It's proven itself to be a classic movie which has achieved cult favorite status.

It's my honest opinion is that this movie isn't something to watch when you're looking to be intellectually stimulated. This is a feel good movie that's to be watched when you could use a little emotional boost by it's contagious music, silly humor throughout, and of course, the happy ending. But I sincerely feel that it's one of those movies that everyone should see at least once.

Thanks for reading. I hope you enjoy it.
