La-La Land Records proudly presents the Original Motion Picture Soundtrack to the big-screen sci-fi/romantic-thriller The Butterfly Effect, from New Line Cinema and the creators of Final Destination 2. The film stars Ashton Kutcher, Amy Smart, and Eric Stoltz. Composer Michael Suby's dynamic orchestral score evokes all the suspense, romance and wonder of this captivating motion picture event.
"I always think that the score and soundtrack to a film can really make it. I mean if a film has a poor soundtrack and I don't like the songs/music used then it can spoil it a little, whereas if the soundtrack and score is really good it can make me like the film more even if the film isn't that great.
Anyhoo, I thought this film was superb and the score just added to it. The last scene with the good memories couple with the music used over it was one of the saddest I've scene in movie. I highly recommend buying the score and the movie.
Oh and to writers below, the songs used in the two alternate endings were 'Stop Crying Your Heart Out' by Oasis and 'In My PLace' by Coldplay. I believe the song played in the basement is Korns 'Cry For You'.

"I don't actually own this cd, but in response to a previous reviewer's question, the name of the song playing when Evan is walking to the bathroom in the sorority house is called "My Elastic Eye" by The Chemical Brothers."
Good, not great

"I have heard some of the album, overall the music is good, but I have to say that "Kayleigh's Funeral" is by far the best on the soundtrack.Just a correction to "A music fan's" comment, the Oasis song played at the end of the movie is called "Stop Crying Your Heart Out", which can be found on their Heathen Chemistry album."
Really moving score...

"I thought the score to this film was really beautiful. My favorite tracks are "Jason's Funeral", "Kayleigh's Funeral", and "Evan Kills Tommy". All the tracks are really good. I just wish an album of the film's other music had been released. However, for everyone looking for the names of the songs in the film, you can find them on the Internet Movie Database's site for the film. Here is the URL to that site: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0289879/soundtrack"
Song played during candlelight dinner

"I was also interested in the song that played during the candlelight dinner. I was disappointed when the soundtrack was only a score, but I did some checking around and that song is by Jimmy Eat World. It's called "Hear You Me." I hope that helps everyone else that was wondering about it."
