The opening and song most people buy the soundtrack for is "The Little Things", but as previously stated above, you DON'T GET "Nine Inch Nails", "The Pina Colada Song", or anything else. So Yeah, I'm DISAPPOINTED WITH IT! I LOVE DANNY ELFMAN'S MUSIC, ALWAYS HAVE, BUT THAT'S WHY I BOUGHT THE SOUNDTRACK, NOT THE SCORE, BUT THEY ARE ONE IN THE SAME. You get One ROCKING TUNE, and the rest is just filler music. Great for Danny Elfman, but they LABELED IT INCORRECTLY. IT'S NOT A SOUNDTRACK, ALL THE SONGS YOU HEAR IN THE MOVIE, ARE ABSENT FROM THE "SOUNDTRACK", IT'S A SCORE! I just bought ANOTHER 1 SONG CD!

The album is just the score with the Elfman sung "The Little Things." The album is an Elfman project/score rather than a true soundtrack. “Exterminator Beat,” “Fox in Control,” “Revenge,” and "The Little Things" are the shining moments of the album. Master RedyVa really liked the over-all string driven sounds of the score. Elfman + strings + guitars + techno = frantically paced rock 'n' roll that is worth listening to more than a few times. The catchy, masculine and guitar fueled vehicle “The Little Things” really complements the film's strong sense of machismo. “Every Day Is Exactly the Same” by Nine Inch Nails, “Escape (The Pina Colada Song)” by Rupert Holmes, and “Time to Say Goodbye” by Andrea Bocelli (& Sarah Brightman- plays while Fox and Wesley kill a man in a limousine) are all absent on the soundtrack.
