It's time to hit the dance floor, people! On this episode of the O/S/T Party, we aren't just covering the soundtrack to Adam Sandler's 1998 rom-com The Wedding Singer. This week we're discussing EVERY SONG IN THE FILM! When your film revolves around a down-on-his-luck wedding singer warbling out 80s jukebox hits and screaming at newlyweds, as well as tons of homages to the heyday of MTV, how could we not?
It's hard to remember a time when The Wedding Singer wasn't simply another stop along the 80s nostalgia railroad, but this film actually predates that trend by a couple of years. This soundtrack features megahits from The Police, Culture Club and Billy Idol, as well as staples from artists such as New Order, The Psychadelic Furs, Elvis Costello and more! Join us as we break down this soundtrack hit by neon-soaked hit!
