The 40 Year-Old Virgin Soundtrack
LocationAcross Space and Time.
Initial ImpressionWoo Hoo!
Notable Lyric"Hello again, is it me you're looking for" by Lionel Richie. If you've seen the movie, you know why!
FactoidThe writer of this film, Judd Apatow, also created cult favorites "Freaks and Geeks" and "Undeclared". He also seems to have the same attitude toward music in his movies as Cameron Crowe. .
Serve WithDVDs of "Freaks and Geeks" and "Undeclared" - duh!
CommentsJoe Walsh, Michael McDonald, Smokey Robinson, Asia, James Brown, Chaka Khan, the aforementioned Lionel Richie, Dr. Hook, Flock of Seagulls, Corey Hart, and Survivor: just the list of artists has to rouse your curiosity, doesn't it? The 40 Year-Old Virgin is funny but smart, and Steve Carell (Anchorman) brings a humanity to the title character's plight that is both unexpected and wonderful. The soundtrack is no different. With tongue planted firmly in cheek, you can't help but smile at "Virgin Man", "Sharing the Night Together", and "The Search is Over" (one of the top 10 cheesiest songs of all time), and at the same time sing along.
