Here are some comments from the artists on the recording of the soundtrack..

"Recording "SMILE" was a great experience for me. Sometimes revenge can be fun,” said Lily Allen. “But getting to sing it again—IN SIMLISH—came very naturally and it was hilarious to practice! The silly language and whimsy of The Sims games are a perfect fit for the song. I was laughing the entire time!"

"Being well-versed in improvisation, we felt up for the challenge of re-recording our song, ‘Close Your Eyes’ in Simlish. The Sims' language may be a bit unfamiliar, but musically it actually translates fairly smoothly; its cadence is quite musical," said Kyle Hollingsworth of The String Cheese Incident.
