| | Six Feet Under Soundtrack CD (2 Customer Reviews)
"Six Feet Under-Main Theme" won the 2003 Grammy Awards for Best Instrumental Composition and Best Instrumental Arrangement.
SIX FEET UNDER was nominated for the 2003 Grammy Award for Best Compilation Album For A Motion Picture Or Television.
Ever-adventurous HBO managed to score a hit with an unconventional series about a family of morticians. The series' soundtrack is accordingly unorthodox, resembling either an ADD schizophrenic's mix tape or a particularly eclectic session by a late-night college DJ. Aside from the show's own creepy theme and a couple of remixes thereof, there's big-band swing (Peggy Lee), funk (Shuggie Otis), Cuban music (Orlando "Cachaito" Lopez) and more. On the rock side, there's everything from PJ Harvey's raw, wordless "One Too Many" to the post-Beck hip-pop of the Beta Band and the driving, Stonesy "Bohemian Like You" by the Dandy Warhols. If only commercial radio stations were as cool as this.
Original theme composed by Thomas Newman.

Six Feet Under Soundtrack Music Review Average Rating: (3 out of 5 stars)   Great Dance Music
I really like this cd! I am a dancer and my group danced to Six Feet Under Main Theme by Thomas Newman, and we also danced to Six Feet Under Main Theme by Thomas Newman (Rae & Christian Remix). It was a huge hit at our show! The music is great! Good spooky cd! If you like the show Six Feet Under, you need to have this album!

 Fooled again
I bought this for my wife, who loves the excellent main title theme. Unfortunately, the rest of it is a collection of, to me, undistinguished pop music, a lot of which I can hear on the radio. There are two interesting remixes of the title theme but I wish I'd waited six months for this to be remaindered.
