Data Insight

Officially titled Songs and Music from the Motion Picture She's the One, this is a soundtrack to Edward Burns's 1996 film and not a conventional studio album. Tom Petty wrote most of its songs, several with Mike Campbell, and recorded several tracks left over from the Wildflowers sessions, again with producer Rick Rubin. The record is distinctive for mixing those Petty originals with cover versions, including Lucinda Williams's 'Change the Locks' and Beck's 'Asshole.'

Soundtrack album for the Ed Burns film of the same name, produced by Rick Rubin. Includes original Petty compositions alongside notable covers.
