= = = __Find My Way by The Gabe Dixon Band__ = = = This song was played as the first intro of the movie. I thought that it was a perfect song for the characters as they try to get ready for the morning. Sandra Bullock is bicycling while Ryan Reynolds is trying to run around with two coffee cups in his hand.

= __I’ve Got You Under My Skin by Michael Buble__ = = = The title of this song is pretty interesting and funny. Sandra Bullock is in a foreign place, the first time she feels out of place. The only person she can rely on is Ryan Reynolds. The song is like what Ryan is thinking.

= __Coolin’ by Alex Wilson and Paul Booth__ = = = This music appears in the scene where Sandra is forced to try some seafood. Sandra refuses but the waiter stuffs it in her mouth. The song can mean the cooling of her personality. She is trying new things.

= __So Danco Samba by Luiz Bonfa__ = = = This song appears in the scene where Sandra and Ryan is making up their proposal story. The violins in the music contribute to the overall sneakiness of the situation.

= __Relax by Frankie Goes to Hollywood__ = = = This song is played in the scene where Sandra is taken to a strip bar. It's funny because Sandra is frozen in her seat while the music is telling her to relax. The music contributes to the comedy portion of the scene. = __Cult Of Personality by Living Colour__ = = = When Ryan is violently chopping the wood, we see another side of him. No longer is he the calm and obedient assistant. The title of the song does a great job in describing this short change in personality.

= __It Takes Two by James Brown and Robin Ginyard__  = = = When Sandra and Ryan finally talk about their personal life, both sing this song. The title and lyrics of the song is sweet because it's the first time that they talk to each other in a non business way.

= __Woosh Xhant Wuda.aat by Ed Littlefield__  = = = When Gammy is dancing in the woods, she sings this song. The song emphasizes the nature around and reminds us that nature is old. It also emphasizes how Gammy is traditional.

= __Get Low by Lil Jon__  = = = Sandra Bullock enters the same scene with Gammy. When she sings this song, it is a comparison to the traditions and nature. It emphasizes the modern music compared to the old and traditional one.

= __Canon In D by Johann Pachelbel__ = = = Finally, the wedding of Sandra and Ryan starts. The title of this music, again, fits with the scene. Sandra finally admits that this was all a set up. When she tells the truth, it is like a canon (like the title).
