Music from the 2015 film
Miss You Already, a comedy-drama starring Toni Collette and Drew Barrymore as lifelong friends juggling major life events, draws heavily on thematic contemporary alt/indie tunes; "There's a Place" by
Tyson Ritter and
the All-American Rejects (written for the film) and "Almost Home" by
Moby and
Damien Jurado are highlights among an earnest mix that appears alongside
R.E.M.'s Gen-X hit "Losing My Religion." The soundtrack also features two original pop songs by venerable songwriter Diane Warren: "The Crazy Ones," a driving ballad performed by
Paloma Faith, and "What We Leave Behind" by
Labrinth. However, most notable may be the title track, a summery original rocker from
Joan Jett & the Blackhearts written by
Jett and bandmates Kenny Laguna and Dougie Needles. Elsewhere, Collette lends vocals to "Hello Halo [Cooper Todd Remix]," and the soundtrack recording closes with a song-collection-friendly piece of
Harry Gregson-Williams' original score. ~ Marcy Donelson
