2000 Soundtrack – Pokemon 2000: Power Of One

, , , , ,

Pokémon: The Movie 2000: The Power of One, commonly referred to as Pokémon 2000, originally released in Japan as Pocket Monsters the Movie: Revelation Lugia (劇場版ポケットモンスター 幻のポケモン ルギア爆誕, Gekijōban Poketto Monsutā Maboroshi no Pokemon Rugia Bakutan?, lit. “Mirage Pokémon: Lugia’s Explosive Birth”), is a 1999 Japanese anime science fiction action film directed by Kunihiko Yuyama as the second Pokémon feature-length film, complementing the Orange Islands saga of the series and featuring several new Pokémon, including Lugia and Slowking. Brock, who temporarily left during the season on which the film is based, makes a cameo appearance trying to protect the Pokémon in Professor Ivy’s lab.

In Japan, J-pop artist Namie Amuro sang the ending song “toi et moi”. A soundtrack containing Shinji Miyazaki’s original score for the film was released on September 9, 1999 along with two original songs sung by Rika Matsumoto and Akiko Hiramatsu.

For the English dub, Donna Summer sings the closing song, also titled “The Power of One”. “Weird Al” Yankovic also provided an original song, “Polkamon”, which is played during the ending credits. The last song played during the credits was “Flying Without Wings” by Westlife. Italian singer Laura Pausini sings the ballad “The Extra Mile”, written, among others, by Australian singer Tina Arena. The B-52’s also recorded the song “The Chosen One” just for the movie.

The North American soundtrack was released alongside the film in 2000 by WB’s then-sister company Atlantic Records on Audio CD and Compact Cassette and includes many songs by popular artists, such as “Weird Al” Yankovic (who later came into conflict with Atlantic) and The B-52’s (once signed to Warner Bros. Records, a sister label to Atlantic), many of which do not actually appear in the film. The film score composed and conducted by Ralph Schuckett was also released on a separate CD, Pokémon: The Movie 2000 Original Motion Picture Score, but this CD still features “The Legend Comes to Life”, which was the final song played by Melody.
