This came out in 1999 – or at least that’s when I got it. Here’s what I said about it back then (with some minor editing):
Most soundtracks these days have so little to do with the movies they accompany, you have to wonder if their producers even look at a film’s title, or if they just slap B-sides and covers into groups of 12 and parcel them out willy-nilly, one to a customer.
Thankfully, that’s not the case here. This soundtrack to Richard Gere and Julia Roberts’ romantic comedy about a serial bride was obviously created with nudge, a wink and a smile. U2’s Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For, Hall & Oates’ Maneater, Billy Joel’s Where Were You On Our Wedding Day and two Dixie Chicks tunes — a cover of You Can’t Hurry Love and the new single Ready To Run — make this a winner. No, it’s not a runaway hit. But hey, at least they’re trying.
