Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
Soundtracks are all about setting a mood, so right away you know what to expect from one called The 40-Year-Old Virgin. Sure, it could try to portray the psychological complexity of the situation (though that would be a little creepy), but silly is definitely the safest and most-expected course. And "silly," "safe," and "expected" are the three words that best describe the The 40-Year-Old Virgin CD. You don't need to see the movie to imagine what kind of scene might accompany Michael McDonald's "Ain't No Mountain High Enough," Lionel Richie's "Hello," and "Never Surrender" by Corey Hart. Of course the downfall of using obvious music is that it mirrors the title character's plight all too well. While his--um--maturity may be a little stunted, one could say the same for the musical maturity of this disc. The world got over "I Ran (So Far Away)" by Flock of Seagulls decades ago, but some in Hollywood never did. This CD is great for goofing around--you just might not want to pop it in when you have a special someone coming over. --Leah Weathersby

Product Description
Featuring 17 Tracks That'll Seal The Deal, Including 2 Cast Recordings

40-year-old Andy Stitzer (Steve Carell) has done quite a few things in his life. He's got a cushy job stamping invoices at an electronics superstore, a nice apartment with a proud collection of action figures and comic books, good friends, a nice attitude. But there's just one little thing he hasn't quite gotten around to doing yet - something most people have done by his age. Done a lot. Andy's never, ever, ever had sex - not even by accident. So is that such a big deal?

Well, for Andy's buds at the store, it sure is. Although they think he's a bit of an oddball, there's certainly a planetful of stranger (and homelier) guys who've at least had one go at having a go. They consider it their duty to help Andy out of his dire situation and go to great lengths to help him.

This soundtrack is the key to the big score!

5 out of 5 stars Jazz guitar song.......2007-05-05

Theres a song thats played when he gets pissed and takes off on his bike from her house after the fight. It's got some wicked guitaring and im hoping someone might know what it is.

5 out of 5 stars Remembering good times and good songs!.......2007-02-12

Me and my wife spent many hours in the net searching some musics we listened a lot in 80's. One day, watching the movie "The 40 year-old virgin", surprise! Some of our dreams became true! I found "I ran (so far away)" and my wife, after many years, heard the theme from "Greatest American Hero". Both songs were very popular in Brazil between teenagers. Immediately we went to surf in the internet and begin looking for the soundtrack, and it is exactly what we were waiting for!!! But not only because those songs made us remember those 80's: these are real good music, and we believe they don't belong to a specific date.
That's why we love them.
Thank you, mr. Apatow!
P.S.: "Hello" will never be the same song after this movie...

Does anyone know the name of the song playing in the background during the movie? It goes something like," Come in my room, take off my clothes...if you want me tonight?"
