Pretty sure Carrie must have requested not to be on the soundtrack or something, 'cause there's no way you don't ask if you have a huge music star like Carrie in your film.

I think so too

Between Brad's duet, Randy's duet, Tony Bennett's duet, a lead single, plus possible full album this year, I don't really mind that Carrie is sitting this one out.

I agree with the mention that Carrie probably requested to not be on the soundtrack. There is no way they did not ask her and then have a different idol. She probably thought it would be a little hoaky to be in the movie and on the soundtrack. I personally think she wanted to try and come off as just Carrie the actress and not Carrie the singer trying to become an actress.

Looks like with the small budget, they really couldn't get big stars on there.

I don't think that was the goal. Helen Hunt and Dennis Quaid are pretty big name stars, and most of the artists on the soundtrack have a career in Christian music, and they are pretty popular in that genre. I think it's more a choice to go with a Christian slant in the music since to go with the theme of the film.

^ To add, actually soundtracks don't always have maintream popular artists contributing to them.

They should have just used play on the single though as that is perfect for any sports movie. Maybe they couldn't afford to put such a big name like carrie on the soundtrack.

Good point...

Probably, not to mention nobody would expect the soundtrack to sell well anyways so it's not worthy to pay Carrie for it. I'd argue that "Temporary Home" could fit as well.

Exactly <cough> Voyage of the Dawn Treader Soundtrack CD <cough>, lol

(Although I should not complain if there is Carrie bonus content on the upcoming DVD.)
