500 Days of Summer Soundtrack (all songs played in film)
Update: Read and link to our official 500 Days of Summer Soundtrack page. That page contains the official soundtrack track listing, FAQs, and will be continuously updated with new details about the soundtrack. The post below contains the entire list of the songs that play during 500 Days of Summer.
While there is a lot of buzz around the film, the songs of 500 Days of Summer have also getting quite a bit of attention. Jarett Wieselman from nypost.com said “500 Days of Summer Will Have 2009’s Best Soundtrack. Mark My Words.” From the looks of the killer soundtrack below, I think Jarett might be right.
Besides Sweet Disposition by the The Temper Trap, featured in the 500 Days teaser trailer, the soundtrack features Regina Spektor, The Smiths, Wolfmother, Spoon, Doves, even Simon & Garfunkel among many others.
Slashfilm has done an amazing job of manually tracking down all the songs from the movie to create an unofficial track listing. Thanks to Slashfilm! The soundtrack has been recreated below for your convenience!
We could be hearing the best soundtrack of 2009 soon. What do you think?

REGINA SPEKTOR! I LOVE REGINA!
I’M FROM ARGENTINA, DO YOU HAVE IDEA WHEN THIS MOVIE IS GOING TO BE RELEASED HERE?
G. on Feb 4, 2009
The only dates released so far have been for North America. Hopefully Argentina won’t be too far behind!
Marc on Feb 5, 2009
Wow, that’s great soundtrack…, the script has some of those songs in the descriptions, so while I was reading the script, i was searching and playing the music, to feel more “into the movie”, you know?
hey, I have a question…, if the movie gets leaked out before july 24th, would you put a download link?, because, sometimes I search for any CAM version of the movie (maybe somebody went to sundance with a hidden camera xD!)
No luck…yet
but, maybe you have better way of searching, if you find it, would you let us know?
Charly on Feb 8, 2009
oh, btw, I found this page on imdb
Charly on Feb 8, 2009
You run a great blog! I always come here first for any updates ;)
Oh, and I apologize for both hotlinking and not posting your blog on the topic I made at soompi.com
It was about 3AM when I made the post, I wasn’t thinking =( Sometimes my internet etiquette is…how shall we say, not the best? I rarely make topics of my own, but I was just so excited about the movie and forgot about the rules =(
Anyway I have now posted a link to your blog and removed the pictures so hopefully more people will filter on down here.
Sorry again!

Hi everyone,
I saw a clip of 500 Days yesterday (11 June) that I’m trying to find again. I’m pretty sure I saw it on MSN. It was of JGL in character singing “Here Comes Your Man” at a karaoke bar and Zooey’s character was cheering him on.
Honest to God, I’ve looked everywhere for that clip…MSN, You Tube, checked my browser history, Googled just about every combo of words I can think of… does anyone have a link to that clip?!?!!? I’m dying to see it again.
If you have a link to it and you could post it on this thread, I would be forever in your debt.
Thanks,
Cat

Anyone know the song that was played when Summer and Tom are on the train, on their way to Santa barbara?
Ken on Aug 9, 2009
Yah! I was definitely wondering about the song on the train. It was beautiful. is there anyway someone could track the name down?
Kris on Aug 11, 2009
The name is Sweet Disposition by Temper Trap……. I spent forever searching because I loved it too!
Brooke on Aug 14, 2009
Does anyone know that song played after Tom gets punched in the Bar he argues with her, goes home and when he’s in bed about to get up to go to the door it plays. Its mostly cellos. But it’s beautiful, I’ve been looking for it forever allll over the place. I dont think it’s on the soundtrack.
Amara on Aug 14, 2009
the song after the bar fight is called “The Music” by the group Paper Route.
Rebecca on Aug 18, 2009
What was the second song played during the credits? It’s only instrumental and was also played during the train scene.
