I agree that there should be two soundtracks, the first one being the compilation of great singles from this great movie, the second being the origional score. DO NOT BUY THIS CD if you are looking for the songs off the movie. It is only the instrumental score.

I was so0 dissapointed when i heard this cd! I loved all the songs on bubble boy the movie and i wanted to buy them! This cd should not be titled soundtrack at all, its misleading. It's really only a score, so if you were looking for the actual songs, like me, THIS CD IS NOT FOR YOU!

Notice how this is titled the "Soundtrack" to Bubble Boy yet lacks almost every good song from the dang movie. It's a SCORE, enticing people who want to hear the good music from the movie to plop down fifteen bucks and then get really angry when they realize the only good track is "Cows And Ice Cream." The movie? 5 stars. The "Soundtrack"? 1 star (at best).

I really enjoyed this movie and was disappointed to find the soundtrack was only the score.
I searched like mad to find the song played while Jimmy walks through the desert and sees the shooting star. It's called "King of Yesterday" by Jude, in case anyone fell in love with it like I did!

This CD is really dissapointing. I bought it, thinking it would have the songs from the movie on, for example, Blink 182 and Jude. IT DOESN'T. Trust me on this one kids......DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY!

It's unfair to judge this soundtrack because you weren't happy that the pop songs from the film aren't on the soundtrack. This soundtrack contains the MUSICAL SCORE ONLY. So it is not composer John Ottman's fault if you bought this and are unhappy. That said, this is a brilliant film score, every bit as noteable as the ones that get pushed front and center, like the score to Harry Potter or Star Wars.

The songs were (obviously) tailor-made for this film, and they work beatifully with each scene. Just listening to the score without the film in front of it is every bit as enjoyable. Fans of musical scores will certainly not be disappointed! This score is so much fun, so full of life and energy! Personal favorites of mine are "Jimmy's Adventure" and "Rejections."

Definitely give this score a listen to, it's totally worth it! Fans of scores and the film Bubble Boy will no doubt love this piece of work! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!

i agree, i would have liked a soundtrack with the actual songs in bubble boy, since they were AWESOME, but i think the score is good too! cows and ice cream and the clouds/riding with push pop are my favorites! why does everyone hate it? it's good! not as good as the movie, but it deserves atleast 3 stars.

first of all... the movie Bubble Boy is great. I was waiting a long time for this soundtrack to come out because I loved the music in the movie "Bubble Boy." This Soundtrack has NO songs from the movie. This CD only has like 30 second songs that are just like the composer made. Really the only song that was heard in the movie was the "Rocky" theme. Not worth wasting money for this horribal peice of work. THEY SHOULD MAKE A SOUNDTRACK FOR THIS MOVIE WITH ALL THE SONGS THAT WERE IN THE MOVIE.

My fav Tune is This... when Jimmy Gives his gift back to his dream girl, after she tell him she getting Married in the Niagara Fall
JUDE - KING OF YESTERDAY

I wish I had read the reviews before I purchased this product. I was looking for the actual soundtrack and was very disappointed to find out it was musical instruments only. I dont recall reading that in the description of the product. My understanding was it was the actual soundtrack and I was very excited. Lessons learned, things arent always what they seem. Beware before purchasing.
