Editorial Reviews

Love or hate the Farrelly brothers' excessive comedies, you've got to admire their taste in music. Most notably that means their placement of Jonathan Richman at the center of There's Something About Mary, but don't forget the best of Me, Myself & Irene's Steely Dan covers. Shallow Hal, their smartly conceived romance starring Jack Black and a fat-suited Gwyneth Paltrow, scores with a soundtrack album conceptually driven by strong-willed, full-hearted women's song--Shelby Lynne's "Wall in Your Heart," PJ Harvey's "Good Fortune," Rosie's "Afterlife." Not everything here is as worthy; Sheryl Crow's stab at '80s nostalgia, "Members Only," is a weak joke, while Darius Rucker (Hootie and the Blowfish) is unlikely to start a '90s-nostalgia craze with his solo "This Is My World." --Rickey Wright

I love this CD but it's incomplete!.......2006-10-18

First, I love the film Shallow Hal so much that I was thrilled to get the compact disc collection of music but even though I read some of the reviews that they were missing songs. I can't help that but I would have bought it anyway. I would have loved to hear the final song on the closing credits but regardless I still love this music especially Darius Rucker's song, This Is My World. I thought that should have been released for Shallow Hal film and I bet that it would have gotten nominations for best original song. I think it could have been a contender for that award. I love Shallow Hal, the film, and I would have been grateful to have the complete collection but it's not my control so I'll give it 4 stars for now.

missing many songs from the film.......2006-08-07

A soundtrack gets its power from the combination of images with the song. There were a lot of great songs from the movie yet they are not on this lame soundtrack. The soundtrack is okay, the best songs are from Sheryl Crow and Hootie but the songs that are most memorable from the film are missing.
I understand that there were probably licensing issues precluding use but that is what makes the soundtrack good...to re-live the euphoria from the film.

can't find song.......2006-07-10

what was the song that came at the end after Love Grows (Where My Rosemary Goes). something like "starting a new religion" or "they called me DUDE" or something like that

song???.......2005-12-30

what song is played right after the darius rucker song when they have woken up together and she then leaves the building, its a soft song.

I was interested in Edge of the Ocean" by Ivy once I heard it in Shallow Hal. BONUS, it's a FREE MP3 download here on Amazon from Chillout Voices V.2!
