Cory Chisel and The Wandering Sons- "Born Again"
Twilight author Stephenie Meyer has made no secrets about her love of music and how certain songs and bands have played into her writing, especially Muse. Each of the books in the series have come with a playlist, posted by Meyer on her official website, and she's thanked a handful of bands in each of her credits.
Also music-loving is Catherine Hardwick (Lords of Dogtown), the film's director. It should come as no surprise, then, that the soundtrack to the first film in the series would be highly anticipated. Last week, the tracklist flooded the web and while many seem satisfied with the picks, a number of outlets (including MTV) and super-fans are a little disappointed that such a cult book series and film couldn't come up with more interesting (and less formulaic) choices.
Tracklist:
Muse - "Supermassive Black Hole"
Paramore - "Decode"
The Black Ghosts - "Full Moon"
Linkin Park - "Leave Out All the Rest"
MuteMath - "Spotlight" ("Twilight" mix)
Perry Farrell - "Go All the Way (Into the Twilight)"
Collective Soul - "Tremble for My Beloved"
Paramore - "I Caught Myself "
Blue Foundation - "Eyes on Fire"
Rob Pattinson - "Never Think"
Iron & Wine - "Flightless Bird, American Mouth"
Carter Burwell - "Bella's Lullaby"
What song would you have liked to see make the soundtrack?

I am okay with the selection of Collective Soul to be on the soundrack with "Tremble for my Beloved." However, the other two songs I really enjoy on the playlist is "Why Does it Always Rain on Me?" — Travis and "By Myself" — Linkin Park.
I really appreciate the way she extends the realm of comprehension beyond just the visual and the articulate. Music really adds a new, more meaningful dimension.
Why is there no Armor For Sleep on this soundtrack!? They are such a huge influence in Stephanie's writing. Disappointing. At least there is Muse.
I was also secretly hoping for "Animal" by Black Light Burns.
I was expecting more...but still looks like a decent soundtrack.
I approve of the tracklist, but I think, and my best friend would agree, that "Until You're Mine" by Demi Lovato should be on there. If you haven't heard it, you really should. My friend and I both thought it really fits the relationship between Edward and Bella, and when we were thinking that, we weren't even talking to each other, so she wasn't just agreeing with me, she thought so too.
[p.s. I'm listening to it right now]
Yeah im going to have to say that the movie is too good for someone like a no talent idiot like Demi Lavato to be in it she just dosent fit in with the other bands in the soundtrack so yeah
i believe that the soundtrack is flippin awesome! and if demi lovato ever got on this soundtrack that would be totaly retarded!!! she has nothing to do with twilight and its epic impact!!!
not even close! so no lovato please!!!
p.s robert pattinson is FINE!
It was tough to nail down many of the songs used in the specific scenes of the movie because Carter Burwell only used instrumental slices of songs in a lot of the movie, but here's a list of the songs from Twilight in the order they appeared in the movie, with notes on the scenes.

Never Think by Rob Pattinson plays when Bella and Edward are in the resturant, The Cat's Meow is playing at the Boat House.
Radiohead should have known better than to use my beloved "15 Steps" as the ending theme for this badly written, completely unrealistic crapola. I don't know if I can ever listen to them again and actually LIKE it.
TWILIGHT RUINED IRON AND WINE.
