Ranking All the Songs from The Dumb and Dumber film Soundtrack

Dumb and Dumber

The Dumb and Dumber film soundtrack is one of the most popular soundtracks by itself. Now, this may be because it provides the greatest song in cinematic history, “Mockingbird” by Eminem. Many people have requested that I rank all of the songs from the album before, so here is my ranking of all 13 tracks on The Dumb and Dumber film soundtrack album.

13. The Lupins – Take (1994)

 

The Lupins were a Scottish pop-rock band that released their only album “Dumb & Dumber” in 1994. The song “Take” is the 7th track on the album and was used as background music for a scene where Lloyd first meets Mary. “Take” is a six-minute song that seems to serve no purpose in the film since Harry’s dialogue drowns it out. The song’s album version begins with Lloyd saying goodbye to his mother before heading off to Aspen; however, this is not present in the film. While the song does have an interesting beat and instrumentals, “Take” ultimately fails to stand out among the other great songs on this album.
