Welcome to Soundtrack edition of Tune In Tuesday! The month of October we'll be posting our favorite soundtracks from movies, musicals and TV shows!
This week I'm featuring a sound track from one of my favorite movies. I've loved 13 Going on 30 since the first time I saw it. I adore Jennifer Garner and she played this role perfectly. Then there's the music. I'm a huge fan of 80s music and this soundtrack mixes 80s with a little bit of everything else.
1. Head Over Heels
2. Jessie's Girl
3. Burning Down the House
4. Mad About You
5. I Wanna Dance With Somebody - Whitney Houston
6. What I Like About You - Lillix
7. Ice Ice Baby - Vanilla Ice
8. Crazy For You - Madonna
9. Vienna - Billy Joel
10. Why Can't I? - Liz Phair
11. Tainted Love - Soft Cell
12. Love Is A Battlefield - Pat Benatar
13. Will I Ever Make It Home - Ingram Hill
I have a secret to tell you.. one of my sister's good friends was responsible for this soundtrack ;-) She lives in LA and works in the music industry, mainly soundtracking. When this movie was being made, my sister lived in LA and got to be a "stand-in" during the slumber party scene. They needed people to jump around on the beds & "act out" the scene to see if it fit with the music. Pretty cool huh?
ReplyDeleteI have always loved Pat Benatar and Love is a Battelfield is one of my favorite songs of hers.
ReplyDeleteMandie!!!! I love this movie so very much and you couldn't be more right about the soundtrack from it. I was OBSESSED with Why Can't I after this movie came out and of course all the 80's music, you just can't get much better than that at all :)
ReplyDeleteAwesome movie and soundtrack! My favorite scene is when they dance to Thriller--I can't believe it's not on the soundtrack!!
ReplyDeleteI totally jacked this CD from my sister and never gave it back. Shhh...don't tell her. ;-) Great picks.
ReplyDeleteI have this soundtrack too! Such a great variety of songs, and I really enjoy '80s music -- the cheesier, the better!
ReplyDeleteHere's my post for this week: http://christina-reads.livejournal.com/168286.html.
Great pick! I love singing this song at the top of my lungs in the car, and was so happy when I saw it in the movie. I was raised on Pat Benetar.
ReplyDeleteThis is one of my most favorite movies!! I love the soundtrack! Awesome picks!
ReplyDeleteOMG! I've always loved this movie. Of course now when I see it or think about it Megan and Mason come to mind. I'll use any excuse to picture a Mason strip tease!
ReplyDeleteI loved 13 going on 20 too!! :D
ReplyDeleteI freakin' LOVE this movie! It's one of my go-to girly movies. I love that "Love is a Battlefield" sleepover scene. And Thriller! Hm, maybe I'll watch it this weekend. I have the DVD of course.
