Various/Soundtrack Runaway Bride
On their two tracks, the Dixie Chicks decide "You Can't Hurry Love," but are prepared to seize the moment when love comes knocking ("Ready to Run"). A meaningful relationship makes the world more colorful on Shawn Colvin's "Never Saw Blue Like That. "Hall & Oates warn a guy that the loose woman who caught his eye is a "Maneater." Numerous songs deal with romantic commitment (Coco Lee's "Before I Fall in Love," Allure's "You're the Only One for Me") or a lack thereof (Evan and Jaron's "From My Head to My Heart," Billy Joel's "Where Were You" and Hall & Oates' "And That's What Hurts").

Minor. While U2's Bono acknowledges Christ's sacrifice, he can't seem to find solace there on the 1987 hit "I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For."

Runaway Bride includes something old (vets Eric Clapton, 54, and Joel, 50), something new (several relative unknowns), something borrowed (a 1966 Diana Ross & The Supremes hit) and something blue (Clapton's weepy "Blue Eyes Blue"). It's wedded bliss for discerning families.
