CD Reviews

Wow, This Is Shocking...
Ashley Quinn | IL United States | 03/26/2006
(5 out of 5 stars)

"I'm truly shocked that this soundtrack hasn't gotten more attention. I bought this after having seen the movie and really liking the "Garden State-esque feel," shall we say, of some of the songs. The first song, "Catch My Disease," is upbeat and entertaining, with funny lyrics, written and performed by Ben Lee. I went out the next day and bought two of Lee's CD's. Other tracks include "Hackensack" by Fountains of Wayne, sounding very un-Fountains of Wayne, at least to those who are only familiar with their mega-hit "Stacy's Mom." I also love the Brendan Benson song, and if you ever get the chance, check out the video, which features a stick figure following along with his band. Of course, the goofy tracks from the movie are on here as well. Anna Faris belting out "Forgiveness" in what seems like an omage to Britney Spears is funny, as well as her awful attempts to hit high notes in "Love From Afar." "Jamie Smiles," sang by Chris Klein, sounds a lot better on the CD than it does in the movie, probably because you're not grimacing at the sappy sight of Klein smirking and picking the guitar. The Christmas song should've been left out, but I'll take it anyway, just because of how great the rest of the tracks are. The original score is also included, which is awesome, because the score is typically left off of soundtracks such as this one. The original score channels that of Badly Drawn Boy's score for the film About a Boy-- it's great! I highly recommend this one, and at only $9.99, you really can't beat the price for an awesome collection of songs."
Buying this one for "Eyes"

(4 out of 5 stars)

"I got a kick out of the movie and am buying this CD especially for the song "Eyes" by Rogue Wave. I knew I had heard it somewhere before and it turns out that it seems to be the unofficial theme song of the NBC show Heroes.



Besides this soundtrack, I think you can only get this song on an import cd, at least currently."
Not really a review ...
PreventRage | Seattle, WA USA | 12/11/2007
(4 out of 5 stars)

"I'm not really writing a review of this album. I'm just putting this text in here so that others who do the same search I did can find it. The song "Eyes" by "Rogue Wave" which apparently exists only on this soundtrack album shows up a couple of times during the first season of "Heroes" and I completely fell in love with it.
