I pretty much got this CD for one reason-"Soul to Squeeze" by the Red Hot Chili Peppers. There is only one more CD on the planet that has that song, and it's very hard to find. This and "Tainted Love" are great songs, but the rest was mediocre.

Morten Harket's (of A-ha fame) cover of the Frankie Valley song is the best version of the song that I have ever heard, even surpassing the original. This song will be played at my wedding later this month; not bad for something from the Coneheads soundtrack! The REM song ain't too bad either. Other tracks are okay, but I bought it just for track #5 in mind.

This is one of those times that you ask, "Why does this even have a soundtrack?" I mean, the best thing about the movie was Chris Farley, and he wasn't even a conehead. Actually this is half-way decent. Tracks 4-9 are all good. When this came out, I thought it was kind of strange to have the Chili Pepper's on it. It's like putting "The Thrill Kill Kult" on the "Flintstones" album. But hey, I guess that's what soundtracks are for. The last track is a dancy number sung by the Coneheads. Good or bad depending on what you want. Get this used.

this is an awesome soundtrack it is enjoyable and fun to listen to. the best songs on this disc are all of them

I mainly bought this album for the Red Hot Chili Peppers song, as I couldn't find it anywhere. I later discovered they released it on their greatest hits album. If I could do it again I would have just bought that.

Not the best soundtrack...

Remember "Tainted Love" and how great it was to dance to? There are some great old songs on this CD. It will make you feel great. I am so glad I bought it. There are a couple of dud songs but still worth buying.

Red Hot Chile Peppers have a great song, "Soul to Squeeze" and "Tainted Love" is good as well, but all the others are at best average.

Short and simple is one description for this CD, but that's not what bugs me the most! Of most, I wanted to hear Dan Aykroyd's rendition of 'Tainted Love' and 'Don't Want To Hold My Cone Alone'. The other versions, I can get them else where! Very dissapointing.
