If anyone is looking for the song that plays while Drew Barrymore is running across the baseball field to Jimmy Fallon...its actually on the soundtrack...but it hides itself very carefully in fact.

Its called "Who Killed Tangerine" by Tears for Fears. Just wait for it...wait for it...until the end...then you'll remember it.

Hope this helps those of you that just want to find that song you're looking for and be done with it...not have to search through a thousand other songs before you finally find the one you were looking for in
the first place.

and remember...its not over...it never was over.

I am a big baseball fan, and I love this movie, but whoever put the soundtrack together wasn't paying attention. WHERE IS SWEET CAROLINE? How could you put together a sound track for a Red Sox movie without it? There are some songs on the soundtrack I could do without (Yowsah,Yowsah, What Would You Say), but I still like the music. I'd gladly give it 4.5 stars IF Sweet Caroline had been included.

i bought the soundtrack because every movies whith drew barrymore have to have a great soundtrack,and it does!... yes the majority of the songs are oldies but it's nice and suit well to the spirit the film want to give (i haven't see the movie yet).Anyway a lot of great oldies with a couple of new sound (ivy and dropkick murphys for exemple) and an extract of the new tear for fears album which is very good by the way.So if you like nice compilation of jazzy and pop/rock songs you will love this soundtrack,for the other,well listen to it before you decide to buy it.Even if i already have their album,in the clear,i think my favorite track is without any hesitations ivy's gorgeous and catchy,thinking about you.

I bought this album because i liked the movie so much..And I became a Red Sox fan...My favourite song is Tessie..

I like the fact that they chose some lesser know bands to go along with the veteran bands. In particular, the track Window Pane, by Mad Larry was a huge standout. What a great tune. Hopefully the trend will continue and give indie bands the boost in name recognition they're working hard for.

Boston is one of the greatest musics scenes known to man....Aerosmith may be the most famous band missing, but the ommission of the Mighty Mighty Bosstones is a travesty. At least they included "Tessie", the song made popular in 1918, and by doing so, they included the Dropkick Murphy's, another great Boston Band. But no Bosstones, Aerosmith, Guster, Aimee Mann, Pixies, Buffalo Tom, Slide (who released a CD in 95 or 96 entitled "Forgiving Buckner"), Julian Hatfield, The Lemonheads, Chubby, or other great Boston Bands. Could have been an ode to Boston, instead, it was a joke.

How can you have a movie about Boston without the city's most famous band on the soundtrack(or in the movie for that matter)? Seriously though, this soundtrack is a bore.
