NBC's four-decade soap opera phenom is a television legend, consistently the most popular program of its kind for nearly a decade.

NBC's four-decade soap opera phenom is a television legend, consistently the most popular program of its kind for nearly a decade. That burgeoning success inspired the show's producers to grace it with a unique original musical sensibility, and it's those romantic, genre-spanning songs that are anthologized here. Written by D. Brent Nelson and former Expose member Kelly Moneymaker (with occasional help from others) and performed by Moneymaker and several Days cast members, the songs here center on a powerful, retro-ballad sense that embraces both whispery confessionals like "I Am Right Here" and Tanya Boyd/Celeste's "December Rain" and more gutsy, r&b-charged performances like Moneymaker's "Love the Way You Love Me." The show's music also ranges across modern country-rock romping (Peter Reckell/Bo's "When Two Chevys Collide"), more sedate Nashville sounds (Moneymaker's "How Can the Days Go By?") and AC-friendly rock from cast members Arianne Zucker/Nicole (an upbeat "Easy to Love You") and Kyle Lowder/Brady (the wistful "Undone"). Hardly cutting edge, yet a fitting musical foil for the show's melodramatic romantic daydreams. --Jerry McCulley
