    Second comment muthafuckaz.

    Anyways I have written off Shania when she agreed to sing with Mark McGrath in that video I don’t understand. I mean if it’s a party for two, why are you inviting everyone? That’s mean.

    i like the Tom Morello remix of Indigo Girls “shed your skin” …

    the DH soundtrack also has “Mother’s Little Helper” by Liz Phair, which she probably got a sack of loot for and it took her all of 10 minutes to record

    apparently looking at the DH soundtrack … Disney thinks DH fans are either gay or into country

  4. Covering “Mrs. Robinson” (especially on acoustic guitar) is the second most trite cover possible, coming in just under “Brown Eyed Girl” and just ahead of “Margaritaville”.

    Here is the track list for “Music From and Inspired by Desperate Housewives”:

    “Dialog / Mary Alice”
    “God Bless the American Housewife,” SheDaisy
    “Dialog / Edie”
    “Shoes,” Shania Twain
    “Band of Gold,” Anna Nalick
    “Dialog / Lynette”
    “Mother’s Little Helper,” Liz Phair
    “Mrs. Robinson,” Indigo Girls
    “Harper Valley P.T.A.,” Martina McBride
    “Dialog / Bree”
    “Running Out of Time,” Leann Rimes
    “Treat Me Right (I’m Yours for Life),” Joss Stone
    “One’s on the Way,” Sara Evans
    “Dialog / Gabrielle”
    “Boom Boom,” Macy Gray
    “Young Hearts Run Free,” Gloria Estefan
    “Dialog / Susan”
    “Damsel in Distress,” Idina Menzel
    “Dreams of the Everyday Housewife,” k.d. lang
    “Dialog / Mary Alice”
    “Theme,” Danny Elfman

    I hate this complilation for two reasons:
    1. My in laws will probably buy this and think they are now “hip”.

    2. How Hollywood Records (/ Disney) is trying to cram that band “SheDaisy” down our throats. Take the hint- WE DONT LIKE SHEDAISY!

    Danny Elfman’s such a sellout!

  7. Matt  |   Posted on Aug 23rd, 2005

    Ha! That Danny Elfman comment is hilarious. You know who else is a sellout? That goddamn John Williams.

  9. Where have you been? Danny Elfman and John Williams sold out ages ago. Guess who else has sold out? Oprah Winfrey, Tiger Woods, Mel Gibson, and George Lucas. And any celebrity who wants lots of money. (That is just a generalization, mind you.)

  11. Idigworms, you need to get yourself a sarcasm detector:

  12. And now Ladies & Gentlemen, Arther Fonzerelli will now jump the shark, fail miserably and then be eaten by the very shark he jumped. Then, just some Desperate Housewives will catch the shark and eat some shark soup, flavored with spicey Fonz-stuff, yum.

    you know, i just can’t begin to care less about these so-called desperate housewives. the show or the idea. the hell is going on with this country? i get the sense that there is this trend for all of these crummy networks to try to come up with programming that makes some sort of big artistic statement a la sopranos but specifically geared towards the wal mart and target set. and they’re just failing miserably at it. unless today’s housewives really do talk and act like that. which they probably do. which is somehow even more depressing.

    by the way–worst. soundtrack. ever. it looks like a commercial for some god awful herbal tea actually CALLED mother’s little helper or something. just saying.

  14. john boy, that tea comment has me in tears.

  15. How many of those songs do you think were genuinely inspired by Desperate Housewives? “Blimey, what a great episode, I feel so inspired I think I’ll write a song.”

  16. I’m just glad that rather than having to go all around town spending tens if not hundreds of dollars tracking down these classic songs, I can get them all right here. I’m convinced, and so are you!

    Aren’t Joss Stone’s fifteen minutes up yet? Can she share a cab to nowhere with Nelly Furtado?

    Judge for yourself!

    There is a Desperate Housewives listening party @
    Vh1.com this week.

    I also found a link w/ samples of each song:

  19. Hey! I LOVE SHEDAISY!! They have really well written lyrics and great harmonies.

  20. “How many of those songs do you think were genuinely inspired by Desperate Housewives?”

    Probably not any of them.. if not very few. Many of the songs were around long before the show. “Harper Valley PTA” and “One’s on the Way” for example, are old old old country hits.

    Personally, I’m a fan of the show and many of the artists on the soundtrack, so I bought it.
