It was an okay album. A little too much mainstream punk-pop. Annoying high pitched man voices. I wasn't too fond of All-American Rejects. Nor was I to Cartel. I loved the remake of Time After Time. Not as great as the original. But still good.

I was dissapointed that I Want You To Want me wasn't on the album though. It was a big part of the movie, and it not being on the album was dissapointing.

it's missing some of the better songs in the film itself, e.g. the songs by Elvis Costello and Cheap Trick, not to mention "I Never" by Rilo Kiley. That's the song playing while they were on the yacht, and if you're not familiar with it, do yourself a favor and find it. Thank me later.

Originally, the only reason I was going to buy this soundtrack was for Ben Lee's cover of Float On. Now, aside from it taking about two weeks to get to me, it ended up being worth the wait. There is so much more to that soundtrack than just the one great cover. That was the only thing I would listen to while driving for two weeks after I received it. Definitely a great buy and I am very pleased with my purchase.

Everyone is asking who sings it on the movie, well i found it!! It's Hillary Duff who sings I want you to want me. Off of the 80 hit wonder Cheap Trick!! And everyone is welcome!!! ;)

My question is, where in the world is i want you to want me? i mean, its important enough in the movie to name the artist and have people sing it, it even played twice on the movie, but its not in the soundtrack?

what gives?

AAR starts with their hit single dirty little secret (to overplayed for me) and then NU NU NU NU all the way till the end!.Well,there are some new punk rock tunes,a little bit of pop/rock with an inch of folk/rock:
honestly - THE punk song in all it glory,nice but not good.3/5
Chelsea - her voice reminds me of Gwen Stefany.Way to unoriginal but a fine song anyway.4/5
hope song - a little but of 80's rock style.Just love it.4.5/5
instantly gratified - Deja vu but nice effort.3.5/5
better open the door - another punk rock style tune but it's good.4/5
time after time - finally the best song on the CD.Love this new cover of the song.5/5
fool for love - too much Gwen Stefani vibe but the result's reasonable.4/5
this will be our way - nice little song but expected much more coming from OK GO.3.5/5
i like what you say - Nada Surf is really a great band.4.5/5
float on - Modest Mouse's version is better but this one's not bad.4/5
sunset lover - a little disappointed by Josh but I still love what he does.4/5
we got to leave - aouch! jerk it out was way much better than this guys! well,nice chorus anyway.3,5/5
the next best thing - punk rock till the end,but I like it.4/5
Hope this will help!...

John Tucker must Die is a totally awesome movie and the soundtrack is just as good. All of the music is new from great bands that some people may not have heard of, they are great! Totally worth it!

Ok, so I picked up the soundtrack the day it came out. I am a fan of most of the bands on the list, but I must admit, Rockett Queen is by far the best!!! The vocals, guitar, drums, & bass all make ya want to get up and rock out! I think they are The Next Big Thing!!!!!

My daughter worked on this film as the assistant to the director...so I think everyone should buy this CD...not that she worked on the CD...but you get my drift:)
