I am listening to Funny People soundtrack.  It’s low emotionally but raises the tiny little hairs of my back and legs, go figure. Why is this happening to me?  Most likely it’s the rare John Lennon acoustic demo of “Watching the Wheels,” the 1981 single released after his death, is one of the highlights of the original motion picture soundtrack available July 28 and features two exclusive new live tracks: James Taylor’s on-camera performance of “Carolina in My Mind” in the film, and Wilco’s “Jesus, etc.,” featuring Andrew Bird on violin recorded during their Summer 2008 tour. Funny People hits theaters nation-wide on Friday, July 31st.      

Yes, this soundtrack is for silly heroes, the hero in all of us, who strive to achieve our dreams and live our lives with real love and compassion for our fellow Man.      

The film’s theme of mortality runs through several of the selections, including a pair of tracks from Warren Zevon, “Keep Me In Your Heart” and “Numb as a Statue,” from his 2003 album The Wind, which came out just two weeks before his own death from cancer. Lennon’s “Watching the Wheels,” from his 1980 Grammy-winning Album of the Year, Double Fantasy with Yoko Ono, came out several months after his tragic murder.      

Screenhead has 2 Funny People soundtrack CDs available for give away.  Post you name and we will pick the winners Tuesday, August 4, 2009.
