That Thing You Do!: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack

CD Details

Released in 1996, this soundtrack accompanies Tom Hanks’ directorial debut film That Thing You Do, a comedy centered around a fictional 1960s pop band called The Wonders. The album features an array of period-appropriate songs that blend genuine affection for the era with playful parody, including the infectious title track that captures the spirit of early-’60s pop music. Beyond The Wonders’ hits, the collection spans multiple musical styles and fictional artists, from girl-group numbers to jazz recordings and teen heartbreak ballads, all performed with clever attention to the conventions of their respective genres and decades.

This CD contains tracks from various artists performing songs written for the film, with a runtime spanning the full soundtrack experience. The album includes humorous liner notes that enhance the comedic premise of the movie. Own this fun piece of soundtrack history as a used copy from us, and enjoy the catchy melodies and nostalgic charm without the premium price of a new release.
