Juno Soundtrack Tops Digital Sales Charts

According to Hits Daily Double, if the disc were physically available (see below), it would be in at #9 on normal SoundScan with 40-45k.”

As we’ve mentioned nearly ad nauseum, the soundtrack, which comes out physically on January 15, features many songs from the Moldy Peaches, ex-Peaches singer Kimya Dawson and her side-project Antsy Pants. The eclectic album also includes music by Buddy Holly, Cat Power, Mott The Hoople, The Kinks, Sonic Youth, Belle & Sebastian and Barry Louis Polisar (the album was released digitally on December 11).

“Me and Adam Green wrote [‘Anyone Else But You’] sitting in Tompkins Square Park [in Manhattan], sitting on a bench. We didn’t write it about each other. We both had other imaginary people in mind. Like our dream best friend/dates. We used to call our crushes ‘hippies,’ ” Dawson recently told Spinner in a piece where she runs down all the tracks she contributed to the film.

Meanwhile, “Juno” screenwriter du jour, the ex-stripper Cody Diablo has moved on to horror with a teen cannibalism flick called, “Jennifer’s Body” that will see her reteam with director Jason Reitman in a producer capacity (Karyn Kusama is directing). Described as a “Heathers”-like black comedy, the film will star Megan Fox (“Transformers”). “It’s a lot darker [than ‘Juno’], and it also has comedic elements. Horror is my favorite genre – and like Juno, I like horror movies,” Cody recently told MTV.
