So it's a shame that none of those are featured on the official soundtrack - I can only assume they couldn't afford to pay for the rights.
What you get instead is the original music from the movie - mood stuff (some quite sinister), nice melodies, and not one but THREE versions of the wonderful cover of Tears For Fears' Mad World that ends the film.
But for those of us who want those other tracks, it looks like we'll have to make our own compilation.
The closing scenes of the haunting and wondrous donnie darko are given even greater resonance by the stunning mad world, a cover of a Tears for fears song, the most beautiful song i have heard in a very long time and, unusually, far better than the original. Having to listen six times a day stuff, and i dont normally do that. Buy the soundtrack for that song.
Beyond that there are no other vocals, just slightly haunted background music from the score floating along rather melliflously in the background. Its the wrong kind of space out music, you get lost but you are always rather thinking about coming back again. You look up but never get there. Perhaps i've listened to it too many times when meant to be writing essays.
Although not on this CD i would also like to express my thanks to donnie darko for not only being the best film in recent memory but introucing me to my band of the moment, echo and the bunnymen!, via the killing moon, again utterly apt song for the film.
"...enlarging your world..." (but only at the end)
The CD does the same thing, only through music alone. For that, I think it is great. Read more
