wilco + spongebob = my new favorite movie

BURBANK, Calif. (AP) -- Country music is everywhere -- even under the sea. A song by Wilco is one of the tracks on the soundtrack for "The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie," opening nationwide next month. And set for release on November ninth is "The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie: Music From The Movie And More." Wilco's Jeff Tweedy says he fell in love with SpongeBob when he heard him describe the darkness at the bottom of the sea as "advanced darkness." Tweedy adds writing a song for the movie automatically makes him "the coolest dad on the block." Other artists on the soundtrack album include Avril Lavigne and The Flaming Lips.
