Background and release

Charmed: The Soundtrack was produced by Harry Brainerd, Jonathan Platt and Jonathan Scott Miller.[2] The soundtrack is made up mostly of tracks by little-known artists, though some better known ones, such as Goldfrapp and Stereophonics, are also featured.[1] It also includes Charmed's theme song, a cover of The Smiths 1985 song "How Soon Is Now?" by Love Spit Love.[1] A partial edition of Charmed: The Soundtrack was released as a worldwide digital download on September 22, 2003 by BMG Music.[3] The full edition was released as a CD in the United States on September 23, 2003 and in the United Kingdom on September 29, 2003.[4][5]

Johnny Loftus of AllMusic gave Charmed: The Soundtrack three stars out of five and wrote that it "is just a milky collection of light modern rock from a mixture of heavyweights and hopefuls."[1] Loftus also noted that "the real standout" on the soundtrack is Rachael Yamagata's song "Worn Me Down".[1] On October 11, 2003, Charmed: The Soundtrack debuted at number 177 on the US Billboard 200 chart[6] and number 10 on the US Billboard Top Soundtracks chart.[7]
