Probably the most fascinating aspect of this soundtrack is its deliberate try to take you on a nostalgia trip! They function as affectionate callbacks; you wouldn’t regret revisiting. It’s a guilty pleasure you have no idea, but trust me, you need! At ten songs, the soundtrack occasionally risks becoming too generous. But perhaps that excess is a component of its charm.

It’s messy, melodious, and immensely entertaining – very like love itself!
