"The Golden Globe nominated soundtrack to the 1993 film of the same name, featuring 20 tracks with music and lyrics by Grammy winner Danny Elfman.

Danny Elfman, who has scored many of Tim Burton's imaginative films (Edward Scissorhands, his two Batman films, etc.), is a perfect musical partner for the somewhat macabre director, and never more so than here, where, in fact, Elfman gets not only to write the music but to play the part of the main character. ""The Nightmare Before Christmas"" is an animated movie musical about the abduction of Christmas by the denizens of Halloween land, and Elfman sings the part of Jack, the Pumpkin King."
