Just remembered this, when trying to recall where the Foo Fighters version of "Baker Street" came from. It's a two-disc set called "Interpretations" from EMI's Essentials series in 1998, which features contemporary EMI artists covering EMI catalogue classics.

Well, yeah. But the shamelessness of including one song from the film, several tracks that straight -up didn't exist until after the release of the film, and releasing the whole thing two years after it was out of theatres is very much in the spirit of this thread.

that playlist rules. should probably have at least one tune by Fluke in place of Leftfield but whatever. IMO "Fire" by Scooter belongs on every single late 90s soundtrack that song rules so fucking much

A similar example is the Trainspotting #2 CD from 1997 - though to its credit there it still has a few songs from the film (including Dark & Long - criminal that it couldn't make vol 1).
― you can see me from westbury white horse, Thursday, 12 October 2023 15:28 (six months ago) link
Trainspotting 2 made a little more sense, as its release more or less tied into the video/laser disc release of the film. Whereas the other Hackers collection feels more like an after the fact cash grab (albeit a very well-curated one) put together to compete with the original MTV AMP comp and the still-selling original Hackers album.

"Hackers to the 3rd power" was 1999 (i think) which could serve as proof for how quickly the film earned its cult status.
Who else picked up the 2nd Trainspotting soundtrack from the used bin at Sam Goody and had the cashier be like "there's a sequel??"
― billstevejim, Friday, 13 October 2023 17:20 (six months ago) link
As a kid I first knew of Trainspotting #2 through the back page of the booklet of this comp
https://www.discogs.com/release/2343064-Various-The-BestAnthemsEver
and accordingly thought there were two Trainspotting films for years (whatever Trainspotting, which I also knew through the Lust for Life video, even was)
― you can see me from westbury white horse, Saturday, 14 October 2023 16:11 (six months ago) link
To confuse things more, there eventually was a mediocre sequel to Trainspotting called "T2 Trainspotting" with its own soundtrack. Not sure why they went with that title when a far far more iconic sequel which is commonly called T2 exists

That was in fact the joke, according to Danny Boyle: “I always thought that if these characters were asked to do a sequel they would agree reluctantly and say ‘all right but you have got to call it T2 so that you can annoy James Cameron.'"
