Big Names on Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn: Part 2 Soundtrack

Twilight is a very divisive franchise. Many hate it and many love it. Some people appreciate the books and can’t stand the movies. And there are those who swoon for Robert Pattinson and those who call for Kristen Stewart’s blood… okay, maybe those sentiments come from the same crowd. But regardless of how you feel about the movies, you can’t deny that the soundtracks always feature pretty known, or soon-to-be known, artists.

On Friday, the soundtrack list for the last installment of the Twilight Saga was released… and it did not disappoint. Big names include Green Day, Feist, and Passion Pit while other notable artists include Ellie Goulding, St. Vincent, and Pop ETC. Granted, the artist listing does not mean that their tracks will be top quality (must we remember The Killers’ “White Demon Love Song”?) But hopefully there are some gems on the final album with the word “Twilight” on it.

Here’s the full track listing:

01 Passion Pit: “Where I Come From”
02 Ellie Goulding: “Bittersweet”
03 Green Day: “The Forgotten”
04 Feist: “Fire in the Water”
05 The Boom Circuits: “Everything and Nothing”
06 St. Vincent: “The Antidote”
07 Pop ETC: “Speak Up”
08 Iko: “Heart of Tone”
09 A Boy and His Kite: “Cover Your Tracks”
10 James Vincent McMorrow: “Ghosts”
11 Paul McDonald & Nikki Reed: “All I’ve Ever Needed”
12 Reeve Carney: “New For You”
13 Christina Perri: “A Thousand Years (Part Two)”
14 Carter Burwell: “Plus Que Ma Prope Vie”
