FM (soundtrack)

By dropping the needle on classic rock cuts and forgotten ‘70s pop confections, The Guardians of the Galaxy flipped the conventional thinking of soundtracks on its head. The blockbuster continues this fine tradition on the sequel, pulling from a dusty crate of one-hit wonders and FM rock. Vol. 2 bounces along with ELO (“Mr. Blue Sky”), glam (“Fox on the Run”), power pop (“Surrender”), and more than one guilty pleasure (“Brandy (You’re a Fine Girl)”).

In the film The Vow, bride to be (Rachel McAdams) survives a car crash and wakes from a coma without any memory of her future husband (Channing Tatum). Befitting the not-so-subtle Harlequin novel-inspired setup, the soundtrack begins with Meat Loaf's arena-sized 1993 hit "I'd Do Anything for Love (But I Won't Do That)". What follows is an expertly crafted love letter to 21st century romance, with highlights arriving by way of Swedish siren Lykke Li ("Get Some"), psych-country balladeers Phosphorescent ("Nothing Was Stolen (Love Me Foolishly)"), and majestic, mascara-pop overlords The Cure ("Pictures of You").
