This soundtrack has solid collection of rock artists on here ranging from ZZ Top to Bob Seger. However, the highlight of this album for me is Aerosmith's "I Don't Want to Miss a Thing." Even aside from the fact that the record was a huge hit, I think it's a really great love song. The opening lines of it, "I could stay awake just to hear you breathing/Watch you smile while you are sleeping/While you're far away and dreaming" grab you. Those lyrics are so visual and I think they express love very powerfully with out sounding corny or gratuitously sappy. If I ever get married, this song will surely get airtime at my wedding.
