Hilary says: “The soundtrack of EVERYBODY WANTS SOME!! ambles between genres as it follows the teammates of the 1980 Texas State University baseball team over the last long weekend before the Fall semester. Music blasts from car radios, nightclub sound systems, and dorm room stereos as they cruise around town while attempt to keep the beat with “Rappers Delight”, boogie at a disco, shoot pool and ride a mechanical bull at a country-and-western bar, go to a scrappy punk-rock show, host and attend raucous house parties, and compare record collections while hanging out in their rooms. The diegetic music becomes another character in the film, perfectly capturing this era just prior to MTV when radio play and vinyl still reigned, with a diverse mix of rock, dance music, hip-hop, new wave, and country.”
