Blah. The only songs on that soundtrack I like are Scenario and Personal Jesus. Disappointing.

I do not believe the song title is literally referring to a religious figure. It's always felt it was more about human-to-human interaction to me.

Not really, though it has been interpreted that way. This is how the man who wrote the song described it (Martin Gore, the founding member of Depeche Mode):

"It's a song about being a Jesus for somebody else, someone to give you hope and care. It's about how Elvis was her man and her mentor and how often that happens in love relationships; how everybody's heart is like a god in some way, and that's not a very balanced view of someone, is it?"

Here's a link if you want to know a little more about it:

Either way, it's a great song that's incredibly catchy. Easily my favorite on the soundtrack.

Hip Hop is the culture of the sport. I would love to see them reflect that, but with independent artists as others have mentioned. The best option would be to offer a customized soundtrack then everybody is happy.

The soundtrack seems nice..but truth be told soundtracks don't excite me. It's not my music - the ones I want to hear.

Still patiently waiting for either console to allow MP3 support so I can download my own tracks. Still waiting....
