Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed this soundtrack.

It’s a self-proclamation that fits right in with this movie. To end the famous tracks, we get “Bad To The Bone” by George Thorogood & The Destroyers. I have to admit that I’ve always had a soft spot for not only Elvis Presley, but the Junkie XL Remix of “A Little Less Conversation.” I was very pleased that it was included on this soundtrack because the world is a happier place with a dose of Elvis. “Alone Again Naturally” by Gilbert O’Sullivan has always made me snap my fingers and you just know that the bittersweet feeling it creates will fully illustrate a scene to pull at our heartstrings. I expect nothing less from the movie’s use of it here. Over the years, as it’s been used in soundtracks, it has also brought a humorous slant to the characters’ relationships.

“Lovin’ You” by Minnie Riperton is a song that originally was meant to convey the feeling of being in love. Interspersed with the original music are well-known tracks from famous artists. And even though I haven’t even seen the movie yet, I can just picture a sadness in the scene that is overlaid with the moving piece “Rejection In The Rain.” In “I’m The Bad Guy,” the music builds up and you feel like you’re running along with him, rushing forth with this latest scheme and hoping that this time he’ll be met with success.

I particularly liked “Evil Lair,” since I could just picture Megamind devising in his lair, secreted away from others, ready to unleash his newest evil plan onto the world. These works solidify the notion that this world does have supervillains and superheroes, out there plotting and defeating schemes while we watch from the sidelines. The originals, composed by Hans Zimmer and Lorne Balfe, set the tone of a mammoth adventure. With original tracks by Hans Zimmer and Lorne Balfe, coupled with a few songs from well-known artists, this soundtrack is sure to have music that appeals to everyone. The brand new movie Megamind will hit theaters on November 5th, but fans can get the soundtrack even earlier.
