American Wedding - Soundtrack

Soundtrack

The film's soundtrack includes songs by Van Morrison, Blue October, The Working Title, Foo Fighters, Feeder, Avril Lavigne, American Hi-Fi, Sum 41, the All-American Rejects, Joseph Arthur, New Found Glory, and Hot Action Cop. Badly Drawn Boy and The Libertines also have songs in the feature. Note that most songs used were already singles. And, this is the first film to feature the song "Laid" (Matt Nathanson covering the band James) in both the trailers and the opening sequence. Notably, it is also the only film in the series to not play the song "Mrs. Robinson" in a scene where Finch has sex with Stifler's mother. It is also the first of the American Pie films not to feature a blink-182 song.

The song "Into the Mystic", played at the end of the film when Jim and Michelle take to the dance floor at the reception, begins as Van Morrison's recording, but midway through it changes to The Wallflowers' cover version due to licensing reasons.

Songs that appear during Stifler's dance in the gay bar:

• "Beat It" - Michael Jackson (only few seconds)
• "Maniac" - Michael Sembello
• "Heaven Is a Place on Earth" - Belinda Carlisle
• "Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This)" - Eurythmics
• "Venus" - Bananarama
• "The Reflex" - Duran Duran
