    After listening to the lead single "Love Me Like You Do" you stay with the high expectations of what the album will be, however it falls short of what it promises.

    At 16 tracks, though, Fifty Shades of Grey is a bit of a slog, with too many dreary midtempo numbers--by Sia, Laura Welsh and Skylar Grey--that only feel more glazed (and less enticing) the longer you listen.

    The album, which features Beyonce, Ellie Goulding and Sia, stresses soft-edged production and slow build rhythms, bunched into some fairly catchy pop songs.

    Of the book, the flick, and the soundtrack, only the music really hits hard enough to leave a lasting mark.
