The Parent Trap Soundtrack & Score

  

Released in 1998

I don't think I've ever listened to an album by Alan Silvestri that I disliked. His compositions are iconic and unrivaled, from Back to the Future and Forrest Gump to Contact, Cosmos: A Spacetime Odyssey, Practical Magic, and more. It would be difficult to choose a favorite, but if I had to, it would be The Parent Trap, the 1998 remake of the classic Disney film that introduced Lindsay Lohan to a generation. This is tied with You've Got Mail as one of my favorite movies. It's another I've seen more times than I can count, and it is my ultimate comfort movie. The soundtrack is wonderful, with iconic songs like Nat King Cole's "L-O-V-E" and The La's "There She Goes," but Silvestri's score makes me cry every. single. time. As I'm typing this, Hallie Meets Mom is playing and I'm wiping away fat ugly tears. I'm always amazed by the way instrumental music can convey so much emotion.
