As hip and unpredictable as the movie itself, the Shrek 2 soundtrack features a duet between David Bowie and rising star Butterfly Boucher; Eddie Murphy and Antonio Banderas going to town on "La Vida Loca"; and a wonderfully weird Tom Waits gem, "A Little Drop of Poison." Successfully wired for both kids and adults.

This soundtrack shamelessly courts kids and parents alike with perversely fun results: How
else to explain how Tom Waits, Eddie Murphy, Dashboard Confessional, David Bowie, Eels
and Lipps, Inc. all happily coexist on the same record? Even Pete "Yawn" Yorn manages not
to ruin the Buzzcocks' "Ever Fallen in Love."
