Search - Soundtrack :: How To Lose Friends & Alienate People

Boasting a brand new previously unreleased song by platinum-selling Mercury Records artist Duffy as its opening track, "Enough Love," the original motion picture soundtrack album for How To Lose Friends & Alienate People will arrive in the digital marketplace on September 30th and at physical retail outlets on October 14th via Mercury Records. In between, on Friday October 3rd, How To Lose Friends & Alienate People will open in theaters nationwide, distrib­uted by MGM Pictures. In addition to Duffy, the soundtrack album will include "For Reasons Unknown" by the Killers (a track from their album Sam's Town). The soundtrack is a potpourri of U.S., UK and Euro selections by Dusty Springfield, the Kinks, Motörhead, Joey Ramone, Scissor Sisters, Electrovamp, MGMT, and others. There also several tracks by noted film score composer David Arnold of James Bond fame (Tomorrow Never Dies, Die Another Day, Casino Royale). The soundtrack finale is legendary Italian film composer Nino Rota's classic theme from 1960's La Dolce Vita. (Please see soundtrack album sequence below.) One of the most eagerly awaited comedies of the fall season, the film stars Simon Pegg (Hot Fuzz, Shaun of the Dead) and is based on the best­selling memoir written by Toby Young. It tells the often hilarious story of a bumbling British celebrity journalist's move from London to New York to become a contributing editor at a highly prestigious magazine. How To Lose Friends & Alienate People also stars Kirsten Dunst (Spider-Man, Eternal Sunshine of a Spot­less Mind, Bring It On), Danny Huston (The Constant Gardener, 30 Days of Night), Gillian Anderson (The X-Files, The Last King of Scotland), Megan Fox (Trans­formers), Max Minghella (Hippie Hippie Shake), and Jeff Bridges (The Big Lebowski, Sea­bis­cuit). The movie was directed by Oscar® nominated Robert Weide (Curb Your Enthusiasm), and produced by Oscar® nominated Stephen Woolley (The Crying Game) and Elizabeth Karlsen.
