If you want to relive the moments of Smallville, this CD will be an excellent companion for you "die-hard" fans. Most of the tracks emulate the mood of the show, with memorable songs like "Don't Dream It's Over" by Sixpence None The Richer, "Everything" by Lifehouse, "Time After Time" by Eva Cassidy, and of course, the "opening title" song, "Save Me" by Remy Zero, in which the band also appeared in the first season's cliffhanger finale. I was disappointed, however, that "Wherever you will go" by The Calling, didn't make the final 12 tracks. In my opinion, it set the tone for the "rollercoaster" relationship between Lana and Clark and makes you think of the times that made you say out loud, "Dammit, Clark!". Despite this, the 12 tracks and the bonus "enhanced" material (playable on a PC) are well worth the cost. If you are an avid fan, and you want to reminisce over the episodes of Smallville, this CD is a "must-buy"...

If you're a fan of the Smallville series you'll notice one glaring omission from this CD: The Calling's "Wherever You Will Go" This was played in Episode 2 when Clark was returning Lana's kryptonite necklace. To many people, that was the show's "anthem," if you wish, that captured everything about Clark's feelings for Lana.
Otherwise, this is a pretty representative CD of the show. The banner songs are there: Remy Zero's "Save Me" and Five For Fighting's "Superman". Von Ray's "Inside Out" and Weezer's "Island In The Sun" take you back into the halls of Smallville High. Sixpence's "Don't Dream It's Over" is a remarkable remake version I think, very much the Talon experience! My personal favorite is Eva Cassidy's "Time After Time" rendition, sang during Whitney's father's funeral. What an emotional rendition!
I'm not as enthusiastic with the inclusion of Phantom Planet's "Lonely Day" and The Flaming Lips' "Fight Test" though. Maybe it's because I can't really remember or put these songs into their proper episodes. Which brings me back to my first complaint about how songs such as "Wherever You Will Go" should probably have been in this disc. But that's just me.
The CD is an enhanced version that you pop into your CD-Rom to access the first issue of the Smallville comic book, chapters from the Smallville novels, a 3D interactive map of Smallville, Lex's mansion, the Talon, and the Kent farm, live performances by Von Ray and Remy Zero (NOT Save Me though) and a trading card. You either get Lana, Lex or Clark.
Overall it's a must have for every Smallville fan! It brings you back to remembering special moments in the episodes!

In one word, unbelievable. This compilation of songs is simply awesome. There isn't a bad song on this CD, and I believe each song has its own significance to life. To know that Smallville is such a successful series, as a fan, I hope to see that the soundtrack also receives such results. I do wish a few more tracks (those that come to mind are "Invisible Man" by Theory of a Deadman and "Get Free" by The Vines, not to mention one by Dishwalla that I can't seem to remember the title) were added as well, but hey, it leaves room for a 2nd CD. For all of you that have bought this CD, or will buy this CD, I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.
