Editorial Reviews

From the mean streets of L.A. to fog on the Tyne! 'Goal!' follows the moving story of Santiago a kid from L.A. who ends up living the dream of playing Premiership football for Newcastle United. The soundtrack is an awesome collection of indie-rock from the likes of UNKLE, Kasabian, Zero 7, The Bees and Dirty Vegas, which features amongst its 14 cracking selections, 5 entirely exclusive tracks to this soundtrack. Former baggy kings The Happy Mondays return with 'Playground Superstar', they're first release as a group since 1992! Oasis score with three outstanding exclusives, the pick being 'Who Put The Weight Of The World On My Shoulders?' written by Noel Gallagher and two previously unreleased mixes of Oasis classics 'Cast No Shadow' remixed by Unkle and 'Morning Glory' mixed by Dave Sardy. Big Brother/Sony. 2005.

5.0 out of 5 stars Incredible... and worth the price, October 20, 2005

You get quite an eclectic mix of music on this compilation. The best of the batch being Noel Gallagher's newly penned tune, "Who Put the Weight of the World On My Shoulders?" This track starts of acoustically, and goes into a sweeping orchestrally driven middle, and ends the way it began. The two remixes of "Morning Glory" standouts, "Cast No Shadow" and "Morning Glory," really make it worth the dinero for any tried and true 'mad fer it' oasis freak like me.

Outside of that, the tracks by Unkle and Kasabian are great, and the rest is solid. I would really like to see this movie, as the premise sounds good, and the soundtrack is incredible!

4.0 out of 5 stars Surprising hit soundtrack for a sleeper hit movie, December 10, 2006

You can tell one of two things from the soundtrack for this album, either whoever put it together is really very cool and doesn't conform to "pop" hits, or they're perhaps from the U.K. or somewhere that's playing cool tracks, cause this is a very hip collection of songs for a pretty fun movie.

I discovered Oasis is all over this album, and Paul Oakenfeld is just dang cool and has some of (or at least one of his well known hits on here).

This is a great soundtrack for those who like Oasis style tunes, as well as other alternative rock!

5.0 out of 5 stars AMAZING!, December 20, 2007

Absolutely amazing soundtrack for an amazing movie. The soundtrack is so uplifting that it makes you feel that you can take on the world. I am a bit suprised that kasabian - club foot is not on there though since it was in the movie.
