14 THINGS YOU DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT 'THE CROW' SOUNDTRACK
1. The Cure's "Burn" was recorded by just the band's frontman Robert Smith and drummer Boris Williams
2. Machines of Loving Grace read the screenplay of The Crow before writing "Golgotha Tenement Blues" and created the song to fit the film
3. Stone Temple Pilots originally planned to contribute a different song than "Big Empty" to the soundtrack, but switched gears after Brandon Lee's death
4. Nine Inch Nails' Joy Division cover ("Dead Souls") is a Crow soundtrack standout, but according to Peter Hook, the former members of Joy Division were originally asked to cover the band
5. Rage Against the Machine's "Darkness" dates back to Zack de la Rocha's pre-RATM band Inside Out
6. Violent Femmes had written "Color Me Once" before they were asked to contribute in The Crow soundtrack, but based on what they heard about the movie, they thought it would fit
7. The song "Ghost Rider" is based on the Marvel comic-book character, but Henry Rollins was not a fan of the "motorcycle hero ... blazin' away"
8. Helmet's "Milktoast" is an alternate version of the band's "Milquetoast" recorded with Nevermind producer Butch Vig, who played a big part in the outcome of both versions
9. Pantera not only paid tribute to hardcore crew Poison Idea with their cover of "The Badge," but they also took influence from the group on Far Beyond Driven
10. For Love Not Lisa were initially reluctant to be part of The Crow soundtrack because they thought it was going to be "crappy kung-fu movie"
11. My Life With the Thrill Kill Kult shot their brief but memorable cameo in The Crow, playing their song "After the Flesh" "10 thousand times" in a freezing cold abandoned cement factory over two days
12. Despite being released on the Jesus and Mary Chains' The Sound of Speed compilation months before its appearance on The Crow soundtrack, "Snakedriver" was written for the movie
13. Medicine's "Time Baby III" features the Cocteau Twins' Elizabeth Fraser and is titled "III" because there are, in fact, three versions of the song
14. Jane Siberry's "It Can't Rain All the Time" was co-written by Graeme Revell, who scored the movie and was also the mainstay member of Eighties industrial outfit SPK

I love this song. Is it contrived? Absolutely. I don’t care though. It’s Awesome.

What a great call! Big Empty fits the movie so well.
And I too never tire of the Visions / Shelly Webster story.
