So. .. the two most FAQ are

“What type of music is used?”
“What popular music artists will appear on the soundtrack?”

Okay, well there really isn’t one general type of music used. It is of a variety ranging from popular rock bands like Click Five and Bowling For Soup, 80s music but revived to clean off that 80’s sound feeling for you all young audience out there, slow songs in other words, “slow jams” which you people call these days bring meaning and mood from its lyrics and the tone/sound of the music.

Two songs played in the film are:
1. I Melt With You – Bowling for Soup
2. Through Being Cool – Ginger Sling

So, how does this music fit into the atmosphere?
The first song contains lyrics,
Moving forward using all my breath

Being friends with you was never second best

And I saw the world crashing all around your face

Never really knowing it was always mesh and lace

I'll stop the world and melt with you.

You've seen the difference and it's getting better all the time

And there's nothing you and I won't do

I'll stop the world and melt with you.

In the end, everything turns out for the better. It fits into the atmosphere as it shows in the end the change made between Will and his bestfriend, Layla. They discover each others secret feelings for each other and share a kiss. The lyrics match the progress of Will and Layla’s friendship through out the film.

The second song contains lyrics,
We're through being cool

We're through being cool

Spank the pank who try to drive you nuts

As considered low, useless, shameful and disgrace to all superheroes because of being “Sidekicks,” this song definitely fits into the atmosphere. Being in Hero Class was the only key to being cool. But that didn’t matter because THEY WERE THROUGH BEING COOL. This song has a fast beat, filled with energy and power which definitely shows the pride with no envy for those in hero class.
