The Shrek franchise remains as popular as ever, leaving the movies shelf-stable on any movie streaming service. This popularity even extends to the soundtracks, which are routinely re-released to recapture the joy, as seen in the recent re-release of Shrek 2.
Interscope Records released the Shrek 2 soundtrack on vinyl for both Shrek fans and collectors. The album features all the tracks from the original release, plus lyrics for every song.

Interscope Records Releases Shrek 2 Soundtrack on Vinyl.
Shrek prints money. Both the movies and soundtracks remain popular despite being two decades old. The music still routinely tops that of more mainstream rappers and pop stars alike.
For instance, the Shrek 2 soundtrack spent weeks on the Billboard Top 10 when it was released in 2004. As such, we can expect re-releases to continue well into the future.
Sometimes, these re-releases will be something special for Shrek fans, such as the current re-release as a vinyl LP. Available through Complex, the Shrek 2 Soundtrack vinyl release includes all your favorite tunes, such as Counting Crows’ “Accidentally in Love”.
Details About the Vinyl Release
You will find the new vinyl release listed as Shrek 2 (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack)– Sky Blue & Green Mix, and it comes with a retail price of $29.99. The record has a superb blue and green finish. However, it will only be available for a limited time.
Nominated for the Grammys, Golden Globes, and the Oscars, the soundtrack album includes music from:
- Counting Crows
- David Bowe

- And many others
Will There Be More Shrek?
The new vinyl record is a treat for Shrek fans, but you may wonder about the other soundtracks. Unfortunately, neither Interscope Records nor DreamWorks Pictures has revealed their future intentions for the franchise. Although I suspect we will see more soundtrack re-releases, including vinyl ones. If they do release the other, you can learn about them by following Toon Radio.
