Say Anything: The Original Motion Picture Soundtrack Reviews:
I'd give it a 10 for nostaliga purposes 
2007-04-07 - There are some great songs on this soundtrack. Any of you 80's adolescents out there will be taken back in time when you listen to this.
Play Anything. 
2005-11-30 - I remember thinking when this film came out that few things in life were as cool as Lloyd Dobler. This soundtrack is also one of those things. This album for me, as for many I'm sure, somewhat reflected my taste in music at the time, and even now actually. Of course the biggie here is "In Your Eyes" from Peter Gabriel. Who hasn't that track touched at some point? This also confirmed my love for the Red Hot Chili Peppers, and here we get a slightly extended version of their classic "Taste The Pain". Toss on a few from Fishbone, Living Colour, and The Replacements and you solidify this soundtrack as a must own for the late 80's alt-rock lover. Not to mention the goods from Depeche Mode and Nancy Wilson (Heart). In fact the only thing that could've made this album any better, is if it ended with a "ding".
Say Anything... 
2003-06-06 - It's not hard to understand why folks enjoy watching movies - it's an escape to life's finer moments. It's probably harder to understand the attraction towards movie soundtracks, except that the music reminds us of these moments. And, when it's done well, with both a quality movie and quality soundtrack, as is the case with Say Anything, the results are noteworthy.
Say Anything wins over its listener, surprisingly, by connecting at various levels. The love song is found more than once, with Nancy Wilson's "All for Love" and Peter Gabriel's classic, "In Your Eyes" both avoiding the schmaltzy love song description. Rock and roll is always a nice touch for any soundtrack (especially one for a cool romantic comedy), and that's found here too, from guitar wizard Joe Satriani, who contributes "One Big Rush" and then up and coming funk/rock band Red Hot Chili Peppers, whose "Taste the Pain" hints at a sound they would later polish even more in the 1990s. Other noteworthy songs include 80's mainstays the Replacements and their song, "Within Your Reach" as well as live versions of Depeche Mode's "Stripped" and Living Colour's "Cult of Personality".
In truth, Say Anything the movie is better than Say Anything the soundtrack. It's not essential listening like Say Anything the movie is essential viewing. But for those who get misty-eyed for 80's music or like to scour the used CD bins for unexpected treasures, this one's got your name on it...Enjoy.
80s at his best!!
2003-05-16 - I very like this CD!! Worth easily for songs such as In Your Eyes - Peter Gabriel, Stripped - Depeche Mode, Cult of Personality - Living Colour and also the rest of the stuff!! I'm not dissapointed and I hope someone will read this and buy the CD because if you're a fan of the 80s in general, this cd is a must-buy!!
It isn't just the soundtrack to a movie
2002-10-13 - ...it is the soundtrack to high school. If you are a child of the eighties, you understand.
I dug the movie, the soundtrack is just as great.
If you ever wore neon socks, leg warmers or jelly shoes, or if you hated those who did, get this cd.
