The Music of Empire Records :: Where are these songs in the movie? :: Music and CD Reviews

So much of this movie is based around the music; in fact, I don't think the movie could have worked without the killer soundtrack. The problem, for most people, is that the soundtrack is so incomplete--with roughly 50 songs in the movie, the 15 of the soundtrack don't do it justice. I give unto you, then, to the best of my knowledge, the complete listing of songs from Empire Records. You can buy the CDs at my music shop to complete your Empire collection.

Music from the Soundtrack:
Track 1 Gin Blossoms -Till I Hear It From You

Track 2 The Cranberries - Liar

Track 3 Edwyn Collins - A Girl Like You
