Details: Product description Gone In 60 Seconds: Music From The Motion Picture CD Island Records, 542 793-2, 2000, 14 Track Amazon.ca Nicolas Cage plays Randall "Memphis" Raines, a former legendary car thief (who could guarantee any car "gone in 60 seconds") drawn back into the life to save his younger brother from an unfortunate fate. Surprisingly, the music accompanying this car-centric action film isn't the high-speed chase you might expect. Instead, it's a diverse, textured amalgam of styles from the heated polemics of Ice Cube (the explicit version of "Roll All Day" is on the soundtrack, the censored version is in the film) to the art rock of Gomez ("Machismo" ) and the acclaimed electronica of the Chemical Brothers. Perennial soundtrack contributor Moby delivers the previously unreleased moody trip-out "Flower", while the Cult perform songwriter-for-hire Diane Warren's "Painted on My Heart", which is essentially the AOR the band once sought all those years ago. Best are the collaborations: Groove Armada, featuring MAD; handle "Rap", an ominous, layered, keyboard-based rap; and BT, featuring Soul Coughing's Mr. Doughty, up the beat cycle slightly for the psychedelically driving and heavily melodic "Never Gonna Come Back Down". --Rob O'Connor
