Hear the Pineapple Express soundtrack!

Looking to steal the crown for Best Comedy Of The Year In Which James Franco Hides In A Dumpster (we think it’s a shoo-in), pot-com Pineapple Express is getting ready to smoke us all out with its particular blend of action-flavoured laughter.

And those who were thinking that it looks like a throwback to an ‘80s action comedy can consider themselves all smug and happy as star/co-writer Seth Rogen has admitted that it’s exactly targeted at those who love the likes of Midnight Run.

And what better way to invoke the feel of the decade than by having Huey Lewis ignite a track for the movie – one that naturally features the film’s title in its chorus? Hear the result – along with a selection from the rest of the movie’s soundtrack over at MySpace .
