They did not release a soundtrack album for The Blind Side, but you can find all 24 songs here. It’s an eclectic mix, ranging from the old school rap of Young MC to the much older school jazz of the Dave Brubeck Quartet, and a bunch of songs in between.
It’s a little bit country (Tim McGraw), a little bit classic rock (Canned Heat) and a little bit marching band, featuring four songs performed by the Riverside Community College Marching Band. For those who prefer radio tunes, there’s also Uncle Kracker and Five for Fighting.
The Blind Side opened huge this past weekend. It took me a couple days to get to the soundtrack, because there were so many movies released over the Thanksgiving holiday, but the movie and the music from it are worth a look and a listen.
It’s a shame they didn’t release a soundtrack album to The Blind Side, but not to worry, we have all 24 songs for you here.
