Inspired by William Shakespeare's Twelfth Night, She's the Man starring Amanda Bynes was released in theatres on March 17, 2006. The film's plot chronicled Bynes' character, Viola Hastings, masking herself as her fraternal twin brother, Sebastian to get into the men's soccer team at Illyria High School.
One of the most interesting aspects of the film was the blending of several different genres into one, including romance, comedy, and sports. Therefore, while the otherwise sports-oriented movie had some laugh-out-loud moments it also had several light-hearted moments mostly depicted in the form of songs.
She's the Man's soundtrack has approximately 18 original tunes and several other songs that help further its unique narrative. Some of the original tracks from the film include Invincible by OK GO, The School Cut Our Team by Nathan Wang, Somebody by Slightly Stoopid, and 4Ever by The Veronicas.
