List of songs featured in Shrek

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Each soundtrack contains all songs that featured in their respective film, and the score album contains the music composed by Harry Gregson-Williams and John Powell.

Shrek (2001)

[edit]

Background

[edit]

Shrek was unique in that it used pop music and other oldies to move the story forward. Covers of songs like "On the Road Again" and "Try a Little Tenderness" were integrated in the film's score.[1] The lyrics to "The Gingerbread Man" and "The Muffin Man" were also used as dialogue in a parody interrogation scene between Lord Farquaad and Gingy.[2] As the film was about to be completed, Katzenberg suggested the filmmakers redo the film's ending in order to "go out with a big laugh"; instead of ending the film with a storybook closing over Shrek and Fiona as they ride off into the sunset, they decided to add the song "I'm a Believer" by Smash Mouth and show all the fairytale creatures in the film.[3]

Although Rufus Wainwright's version of the song "Hallelujah" appeared in the soundtrack album, it was John Cale's version that appeared in the film. Wainwright was an artist for DreamWorks and John Cale was not, thus licensing issues prohibited Cale's version from appearing in the soundtrack album.[4]

  • Eddie Murphy is briefly heard singing "One" and the theme song from "Rawhide".
  • Ben Folds' song "Rockin' the Suburbs" was used in one of the DVD trailers of the film, but was not included on the soundtrack nor in the film, but it would eventually be featured in another DreamWorks film, Over the Hedge.
  • The first trailer features "All Star" by Smash Mouth.
  • A cover of the song Sugar, Sugar was recorded by the band Self, for the honeymoon scene in the movie, but went unused for unknown reasons. It was later used on the Shrek 4-D ride in Universal Studios Hollywood. It remains unreleased, with only snippets of the full song remaining.
  • When the messengers come to Shrek's swamp, a trumpeter plays the melody of the Hawaii 5-O Opening Theme by Morton Stevens.
  • After Shrek's friends start a party in Shrek's house, Chic's song "Le Freak" is heard.
  • In the mid-credits scene, Eddie Murphy is heard singing "All by Myself"
  • Joseph Arthur's song "You're So True" is the original version in the soundtrack and the remix is heard in the film's end credits. The remix is produced by Tom Rothrock, and the full track is exclusively available to both the physical and iTunes versions released in the UK.[27]
  • Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds song "People Ain't No Good" is slightly censored, removing the "shit" from the lyric "bullshit" so that it would be appropriate for inclusion on the soundtrack.
