Though initially scheduled for last December, we finally have a new Cameron Crowe movie coming our way in just over a month. And as with every new film from the writer/director, we’re also highly anticipating a new soundtrack. Today, Crowe revealed the full track listing for his romantic comedy Aloha, which stars Bradley Cooper as a defense contractor overseeing a weapons satellite launch from Hawaii who teams up with (and falls for) an Air Force pilot (Emma Stone) to scuttle a launch. Crowe is an excellent mix tape creator, and he looks to have imbued Aloha with plenty of island-centric tracks as well as some other unexpected treasures, like Hall & Oates’ “I Can’t Go For That (No Can Do)” and Fleetwood Mac’s “I Know I’m Not Wrong.”

In addition to the soundtrack, Sony Pictures also unveiled the first poster for the film. From a visual standpoint it’s not exactly striking, though the tagline of “Sometimes you have to say goodbye before you can say hello,” makes a bit more sense of the title. The soundtrack also confirms that Sigur Rós frontman Jónsi is once again composing the score after first working with Crowe on We Bought a Zoo.

I know Crowe hasn’t been on fire with his last couple of releases, but I’m a big fan of the filmmaker and always happy to see unique voices being championed in the cinema, so I’m genuinely looking forward to Aloha.
