Don't go grap it yet, despite The Twilight Saga sucking beyond all reason, their soundtracks are somehow more than decent. Still hate it though, when talking to a girl who - if only for a moment - I think has good taste in music: "You listen to Iron and Wine?! Seriously? Awesome! Oh. You listen to his one song that was on the Twilight soundtrack. I guess that's cool."

Also, Kings of Leon are not the worst.

Kind of surprised Kings of Leon did so well, not really that surprised by the positioning of the Twilight ST and the likes of Taylor Swift and Lady Gaga unfortunately... this is really just a testament to the majority of i-tunes customers stupidity.

Haha you're probably right. Cringing their way through Bon Iver and Thom Yorke just because Bella likes it!

That Thom Yorke song on the New Moon soundtrack is probably my favorite thing he's ever put his name on.

I completely agree with Waior. Hearing Damage is without a doubt Thom Yorke's best solo song. It's
brilliant really.

And that means something, because I love The Eraser.

pretty sure they are talking about the first movie's soundtrack, not the latest new moon soundtrack, just incase you were implying that the latest soundtrack is on this itunes list

"Yes, I love Iron & Wine!"
"Oh, awesome! What's your favourite album?"
"I really like Flightless Bird, American Mouth."

... So disappointing.

Twilight soundtrack had one of my favorite Paramore songs, Iron & Wine, AND Mute Math. Album's alright, IMO (spreading around good music is always a good thing).

That being said, it's kinda sad that THAT'S the best album on the list.

If there's one thing to be said about Twilight, it's that it has a pretty decent soundtrack.

But then I saw this and cried.
