wedding crashers [enhanced] [soundtrack]

Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
From the song selection on the Wedding Crashers soundtrack, it seems the disc's creators have seen the phenomenon that is the Garden State soundtrack and have come to capitalize. They didn't get alternative darlings the Shins nor alternative superstars Coldplay, but they do have Spoon (cool), Death Cab for Cutie (cooler), and Rilo Kiley (stone coolest.) Not to mention a new song by those venerated, middle-aged uncles of art rock, the Flaming Lips. (The Lips' "Ambulance Driver" is no "Spiderbite Song," but what can you do? They can't all be pearls.)

But it's unlikely that Wedding Crashers will make a Garden State-sized splash: a) the movie itself has zero indie street cred, and b) unlike the latter CD, Wedding Crashers fails to evoke a particular mood. One wouldn't expect existential melancholy from a Vince Vaughn vehicle, but might at least hope for a soundtrack that goes over-the-top-romantic/cheesy/funny to fit the midsummer night's sex comedy plot. One of the few tracks here that is memorably present in the film is "In the Summertime," by '70s one-hit wonders Mungo Jerry--again not a pearl. Even the Vaughn/Owen rendition of "Hava Nagilah" barely features the stars' voices. This CD is worth owning, but it's best appreciated as a stand-alone compilation, not as a musical partner to the film. --Leah Weathersby

Product Description
This outrageous comedy stars Vince Vaughn and Owen Wilson as divorce mediators and life long friends who find their way into a different wedding and a different bridesmaid's heart every week. But when they crash the social event of the season, one of them falls for the engaged daughter (Rachel McAdams) of an influential and eccentric politician (Christopher Walken) and decides to break the "rules" in pursuit of her. The soundtrack features music from Death Cab For Cutie, Flaming Lips, Bloc Party, Spoon, Rilo Kiley, and more. The enhanced CD is loaded with hilarious film outtakes and the music video for "Shout", which isn't available anywhere else.

"Song right before credits".......2006-07-20

This is in response to Joshua Friehling's question about what the song is right before the credits. It's called "Stay With Me" and it's by Rod Stewart.

Sparks.......2006-04-08

The song when Owen Wilson walks up to Rachel McAdams door is called Sparks by Coldplay. I hope that helps!!

Song as they enter church.......2006-04-06

In response to JC "crashers soundtrack" from NY, NY, the song as they enter the church in the beginning of the movie is "Keep It Comin' Love" by KC & The Sunshine Band

the jont song now for sale.......2006-01-11

the jont song, along with a few others from the movie are being sold on a disc that comes with the movie. i found it at walmart and sam's. they also have an edition of the movie that comes without the cd. it has songs by the sounds, sum41, gavin degraw, robbers on high street, jont, damone , and michael tolcher. it's a good cd so if you haven't bought the wedding crashers you should get this version.

I know where the Jont song is.......2005-08-25

Album Description

Composer Rolfe Kent's ability to enhance comedic scenes with melody shines through in his music from this film, starring Vince Vaughn and Owen Wilson as divorce mediators and lifelong friends who've never met a wedding they couldn't get themselves into. As each scene follows the characters' hilarious antics, Kent's score is there to provide the perfect accents to each moment. Past scores include "Sideways", "About Schmidt", "Election", "Just Like Heaven", "Mean Girls", and "Freaky Friday".

Perfect .......2006-11-20

Rolfe Kent, a very unfamiliar artist in the soundtrack industry has done a marvelous job in this movie. I really enjoyed the movie as well as the soundtrack but was not very aware of it. The soundtrack was very appropriate for the movie as well as for leisure listening. It is type of chill music, not relaxing exactly. The atmosphere is very comical, playful and reminiscent. A descriptive list would be Reflective, Summery, Soothing, Quirky, Literate, Mellow, Intimate, Gentle, Earnest, Confident, Cheerful, Carefree, Amiable, Playful, Calm, Sunday. At last you have a complete soundtrack without intriguing dissonance which most soundtracks have. This is a romantic comedy what else can you expect. You can listen to the entire CD without flipping any tracks. Orchestrations are very well arranged. Lots of Classical music influence. If you like this, you must check out his work on Thank you for smoking. He did that movie too. ONE COMPLAINT... the overall cues are too short, this is only short coming and the themes are little repetitive but they are variated so you wont be too annoyed with that.
