The Soundtrack




Below is what I believe to be the complete "soundtrack" to the story. Songs are more or less in order of reference or appearance. A lot of the music is available on I-tunes. Obviously some of the live Bon Jovi tracks are more rare and not available for purchase. An I-mix is available here. It's not everything but a lot of it. Or, open up your I-tunes store and do a search in the I-mix section for "The Layover." It's listed as "The Layover--Soundtrack."

Thanks for the soundtrack Jillian, I have been waiting anxiously for it. Can you tell me what song Jon is thinking about in chapter 32? I can't seem to decipher which one it is. Thanks so much

"Let Me Be Your Hero" is a fictional song. The lyrics in Ch. 32 are my pitiful attempt at songwriting. LOL!

Ok then not only should you PUBLISH your book, you should send this song somewhere to be recorded! I cried over that song and was sooo hoping I could download it!

I'm thinking a deal should be made with Jon. Maybe something like this -- you get to publish your book and he gets to sing your song!!!.
Sounds fair to me, and we all win ....yayayayayaya. --- I am so clever lol

Great work Jillianne. I didnt realise there were so many songs in this story.
Thank youso much.

I so love that you did this. I've been keeping up with the soundtrack for a long time... thanks for introducing me to some great artists I never even knew existed! I agree with the above post... "Let Me Be Your Hero" SHOULD be recorded... by Bon Jovi, of course!

I'm so impressed with this story it is unbelievably good. And you SHOULD publish it, it would also make a wonderful film. I love the soundtrack too, I was turned on to Damien Rice in the movie Closer and that song is great.

Great great great story, I'm going to be sad to see it end. I know it has to end sometime though stories don't go on forever.

Love the idea of it being a film.
How cool would that be Jillianne?????
We know who would play the leading Man, but who would play the role of Jordan?

PICK ME FOR JORDAN PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEASE!!!!!!

LOVE your songwriting - and the way you introduced real Jovi songs throughout the whole story was just amazing.
You are truly talented - hope Jon has been reading and learning for his next hit "Let Me Be Your Hero"!!!!!
