Product Description The Hoot soundtrack will feature five new recordings by Buffett. Buffett covers Warren Zevon's 'Werewolves of London' and Bruce Cockburn's 'Wondering Where the Lions Are', and also performs a reggae version of 'Floridays'. The soundtrack also includes a Buffett/Alan Jackson duet and a new song Buffett wrote just for the film. According to the press release issued by New Line, Coral Reefer band members are also featured on the movie's score. Other artists appearing on the "Hoot" soundtrack include Toots and the Maytals, Maroon 5, G Love, Aussie artist Ry Cuming, and Brie Larson (who also stars in the film). Mailboat. 2006. .com Based on Carl Hiaasen's very cool young-adult novel of the same title, Hoot tells of a teen boy suddenly plunged into the wacky world of endangered species and Florida shenanigans. Jimmy Buffett contributes five new songs to the soundtrack, which isn't all that surprising since he coproduced the movie and his daughter Savannah Jane is credited as music supervisor. The best of his efforts are "Barefootin'," a honky-tonkin' duet with Alan Jackson, and a faithful cover of Warren ZevonĀ¹s classic "Werewolves of London." The balance of the songs on the CD are nicely laid -back, particularly G. Love's "Back of the Bus" and Maroon 5's cover of Bill Withers's "Lovely Day" (Withers contributes background vocals, though this doesn't necessarily play in favor of Maroon 5's singer, Adam Levine). Newcomer Brie Larson (who also costars in the movie) contributes a potential hit with "Coming Around," which sounds like a gushy teen-pop take on Sheryl Crow (yes, it's a compliment). The most exciting track on the CD, however, is Toots and the Maytals' funk-reggae hybrid "Funky Kingston," and it's from 1973. --Elisabeth Vincentelli

Kids movie, Adult's soundtrack
Who would have expected the soundtrack for a kids movie to be this good? I originally purchased it for Maroon 5/Bill Withers version of "Lovely Day" and Jimmy Buffett's Floridays, but have really enjoyed the different types of music that music supervisor Savannah Jane Buffett has put together. Parrott Heads have plenty to enjoy on this disc too, with "Wondering Where The Lions Are", "Good Guys Win", "Barefootin'" (with Alan Jackson) and Jimmy's cover of the Warren Zevon classic "Werewolves Of London". There is plenty for the non-Parrot Heads to love as well. The cuts by G.Love and Toots & The Maytals are fun summertime music that just get stuck in your head. Even the score, "Happy Ending", is bright and sunny. This CD hasn't left my car since it arrived.

Great album! Well worth the price.
This is a great album with performances exclusive to it. The Maroon 5 version of "Lovely Day" by Bill Withers is only available on this album. Buffett's update to "Floridays" will make a Parrothead proud!

Lovely Day
Bought this for one reason..."Lovely Day"!!! The Maroon 5 version (with Bill Withers back-up) is so sweet...Adam Levine 'croons' so beautifully that you can feel it.
