Amazon.com: Laced with nostalgia of the 1980s, the motion picture The Wood hit theaters a decade later touted as a feel-good, then-and-now movie. The accompanying soundtrack, however, relies heavily on late-1990s talent and makes only three short trips back to the '80s. Classic tracks such as Whodini's "Freaks Come Out at Night" and 1987's beatbox-heavy "Make the Music with Your Mouth Biz" leaves listeners yearning for additional musical flashbacks. The Wood's more up-to-date sound is handled by DMX, R. Kelly, the Roots, Outkast, and Mystikal. Balanced with both hip-hop and R&B, the soundtrack is best summed up by Ahmad's smooth "Back in the Day (Remix)," which reveals: "Some days I sit and wish I was a kid again." --Celine Wong
