The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge On The Run (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) and The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge On The Run (Music from the Motion Picture) are the two soundtrack albums, released for the 2020 film The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge on the Run based on the animated television series SpongeBob SquarePants. It is the third theatrical film based on the series, following the The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie (2004) and The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out of Water (2015). The first soundtrack released by Nickelodeon Records, Interscope Records and NEON16 on March 5, 2021, features selections of original tracks performed by artists such as Becky G, Swae Lee, J Balvin, Tyga, Lil Mosey, Tainy, Weezer, Snoop Dogg, The Flaming Lips, and Kenny G.[1] The second soundtrack, consisting of the original score composed by Hans Zimmer and Steve Mazzaro, was released on April 9, 2021.[2]

Background[edit]

On July 9, 2020, Interscope Records in collaboration with NEON16 announced the release of the soundtrack.[3][4] It was preceded by the single "Agua", a reggaeton track performed by Tainy and J Balvin released on the same date as the announcement.[5] Regarding this track, J Balvin expressed that the track "has good vibes and a lot of happiness, which we need during these moments."[6] A music video featuring the artists released on July 15.[7][8] The second single "Krabby Step" was released on November 5, 2020,[9] performed by Swae Lee, Tyga and Lil Mosey.[10] The soundtrack was released on March 5, 2021, a day after the film's premiere.[11][12]

Hans Zimmer signed on to compose the original score in October 2018,[13] with his protégé Steve Mazzaro serving as co-composer.[14] It marks as Zimmer's second score for a Nickelodeon film, following Rango (2011), and his second score for a film based on an animated series, after The Simpsons Movie (2007).[15] The score album was released by Paramount Music on April 9, 2021, followed by a CD release on April 27, 2021, through La-La Land Records.[16][17]

Additional music[edit]

Previous material that are part of the film but not on the soundtrack album are "Slow Ride" by Foghat, "Dream Weaver" by Gary Wright, Weezer's cover of the a-ha song "Take On Me", and Kenny G's cover of "My Heart Will Go On" from the film Titanic.[18]

Reception[edit]

Filmtracks.com wrote "The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge on the Run is, like its predecessor, easy listening but insubstantial. The pandemic recording process worked, but the ambience of the music is indeed shallow. This score is much shorter than Debney's, however, and does not offer the same cohesion in thematic development."[19]
