    I did like this movie, but I was really struck by the music in it. Obviously, not everything that set the tone in the movie is included in this, but my personal favourites happen to be on it, a good thing for me: ) These songs are "Change the World," which will stick with you, and "Have a Little Faith in Me," if only because Jewel has the most extraordinary voice.
