You can listen to three score tracks, and one vocal track. The vocal, called "The Little Things," is kind of catchy and features Danny himself singing (if you didn't get enough of that in Nightmare Before Christmas). The lyrics make zero sense. Not sure yet how much that bothers me. The rhythm at the beginning basically tells you all you need to know about the song, and why it's in the movie.
(Incidentally, does it sound like sour grapes if I think Angelina Jolie's arms are way too skinny? Seriously, how does she hold up that giant gun?)
The score sounds like typical Elfman. Nothing to write home to mother about. |

It's not bad. The singing doesn't do much for me. And Jolie's arms are waaay too skinny. I did like the binary tattoo. Spoiler: | but I am a geek after all |

Thanks for sharing that LadyInque. An interesting listen after hearing the original clip. I don't have enough Danny Elfman which is why it probablysounds inteersting to me.
Anyway, I've added the link to the Composer Links area and I'll leave it there until the we get the score here on SST.
Arms=thin btw. Abnormally so. |

I thought that song was pretty decent. I had no idea that Danny Elfman could sing at all.
The trailer for the movie wasn't too bad either... looks like my kind of film! 
...and yes, arms = too thin. *nodnod*
