| Predominantly featuring artists that you might find in the CD collection of a typical American teen, the SMALLVILLE soundtrack uses the series' premise as its guide--that of a young Clark Kent growing up in this fictional town and learning to live with his powers prior to making the life-changing decision to don tights and fight for truth, justice and the American way. So it's no surprise that Five For Fighting's hit "Superman" is the centerpiece of this collection. Or that the genteel Sixpence None the Richer delivers an airy reading of "Don't Dream It's Over" that doesn't stray too far from the Crowded House original and serves as a perfect bookend to the late Eva Cassidy's delicate cover of Cyndi Lauper's "Time After Time." |
| Otherwise, hook-filled alt-rock is the soundtrack's template, including everything from the Flaming Lips' psychedelic jangle-fest "Fight Test" to Phantom Planet's joyous hook-repository "Lonely Day," and Weezer's equally infectious "Island in The Sun." Also joining in the fun are Remy Zero with the urgent "Save Me" and Ryan Adams with the lush "Nuclear." While not an antidote to kryptonite, SMALLVILLE does serve as a remedy to shoddy, thrown-together soundtracks. |
