The creators of the soundtrack to Never Been Kissed cleverly broadened its appeal by mixing old, new and extremely diverse pop gems. The inclusion of John Lennon's "Watching The Wheels," and "Don't Worry Baby" by the Beach Boys immediately indicate that this isn't your average pitch for teen niche marketing. The fact that the collection is well-rounded casts the contemporary material in favorable relief, and literate, hook-filled tracks by the likes of Willis ("Standing By") and Block ("Catch A Falling Star") hold up well among the classics.
The languid grooves of The Cardigans ("Erase/Rewind"), surreal balladeering from R.E.M. ("At My Most Beautiful") and a freaky booty-mover from kooky Latin ska-heads Ozomatli ("Cumbia de los Muertos") give the set a wonderful breadth and range, while keeping listeners on their toes. Well-chosen and sequenced, the sixteen tracks collected here offer something for almost everyone.
