Album Description
Music from the "cult" hit of the summer "Napoleon Dynamite" featuring original score by John Swihart, songs from the film and your favorite "laugh out loud" classic Napoleon dialogue! Sweet!
Amazon.com
In a promising filmmaking debut, young BYU grad Jared Hess informs this indie tale of an aggressively nerdy backwater teen's foibles with the bittersweet dimensions of the director's own small-town upbringing, making it the dry comic hit of Sundance. Its soundtrack picks up on that earnest awkwardness via dollops of '80s new wave, both underexposed (Yaz's "Only You", Alphaville's "Forever Young") and otherwise (Bow Wow Wow's "I Want Candy," a faithful cover of "Time After Time" by Sparklemotion), as well as moodier contemporary cuts by Rogue Wave (a live take on "Every Moment"), Figurine in full synth-pop revivalist mode, and the nuevo-soul of Jamiroquai and Money Mark. Interspersed with a generous sampling of dialogue snippets, John Swihart's shrewd, intimate underscore runs the gamut from "The A-Team Theme" to geek-friendly exotica and nervous cocktail jazz, stitching the score's disparate parts into a memorably quirky whole. --Jerry McCulley

 Too funny November 16, 2008
Some of the crazy music and some audio snippets from the movie. Also the songs featured in the movie. If you liked the movie this will just be fun to listen to.
 Napolean Dynamite Mystique January 2, 2008
Something about this movie has me eager to watch it every time it's on TV, and compelled me to buy the DVD and then buy the CD.
Everyone knew or knows a Napolean. He's EVERYMAN in High School. Everyone can remember at least once experience where they had contact with a Nap, or where they felt they were a Nap, or wanted to kick a locker and run away fast.
I don't know why this movie did not get more accolades than it did. I thought it was just GREAT and really enjoy the music and the dialogue clips in the CD.
Long live Napolean Dynamite!
Napoleon Dynamite Soundtrack October 20, 2007
Great soundtrack! Quick snipets from the movie before each song are hilarious - does not bleed into the song for those who are wanting to add just the songs to a playlist.
 missing my favorite tune! March 29, 2007

This is a good album. But I give it three stars because it's missing THE best song on the soundtrack, a beautiful acoustic guitar piece with a Irish folk lilt that plays just before the end of the film. Why the producers would leave this gem out is beyond me. I would have replaced "I want Candy", which everyone's heard a million times, for this one any day.
Just like watching the movie November 13, 2006

This is a great sound track. It includes bits of dialogue from the movie between songs. As a bonus, there are several songs/dialogue bits that were deleted from the final cut of the film. My only beef is that many songs are not in the order they appear in the film. Be warned...the last track is handled just like in the movie, so you sit through 30 seconds or so of silence, and then there is a final bit from the movie.
