The Spotify Playlist

Variations on the theme of Ferris Bueller's Day Off

Notoriously, no soundtrack album was released for one of the best films of the 1980s. At a time when theme songs were topping the charts, director John Hughes didn't believe that anyone would actually want to buy such an eclectic selection of music. About fifty percent of the tracks are on Spotify, though that mostly seems to be because only about fifty percent of the music has ever been released on CD. So find above what is available along with some ill-advised substitutions, cover versions, songs by the same band or none of the above. Save Ferris!
