OST 1.

OST

by 8 Mile (Eminem)
October 29, 2002
What good's an Eminem movie without an Eminem soundtrack? It's not all Slim Shady here, though, as the soundtrack album incorporates other artists (Xzibit, Macy Gray, Jay-Z, Nas) in a mix of old and new tracks.

OST 2.

OST

by Moulin Rouge
May 8, 2001
This soundtrack to Baz Luhrmann's musical has a little bit of everything -- often within a single song. For example, Beck and Timbaland covering David Bowie's "Diamond Dogs." Or Bowie himself with Massive Attack on a new song, "Nature Boy." There's also Christina Aguilera, Lil' Kim, Mya and Pink on the Pattie LaBelle track "Little Marmalade," Bono and Gavin Friday singing "Children of the Revolution," and contributions from Fatboy Slim and Rufus Wainwright. And last, but not least, are the medleys sung by the cast members themselves... just try to imagine Nicole Kidman singing Madonna songs. But was it really necessary to include a cover of "Rhythm of the Night?"

OST
