Big Fish

Description

The original soundtrack for Tim Burton's neo-classic film Big Fish (2003), starring Ewan McGregor, Helena Bonham Carter, Marion Cotillard, and Jessica Lange, brings together classic pop songs and a score by his longtime collaborator Danny Elfman (Edward Scissorhands, Tim Burton's The Nightmare Before Christmas, Mars Attacks!). The 2LP soundtrack also includes a song by Pearl Jam, specially written for the film, "Man of the Hour". Other tracks range from the early 30s jazz hit "Dinah" by Bing Crosby to the 50s nostalgia of "Everyday" by Buddy Holly and "All Shook Up" by Elvis Presley, through to 60s and 70s memories with "Let's Work Together" by Canned Heat and "Ramblin' Man" by The Allman Brothers Band. The album was nominated for the Oscar and Golden Globe for Best Original Score.
