New Mandy Moore Songs Will Pop Up On 'Walk To Remember' Soundtrack

Mandy Moore has contributed four songs to the soundtrack for her new movie, "A Walk to Remember."

The album will include the new Moore songs "It's Gonna Be Love" and "Only Hope," a cover of the New Radicals' "Someday We'll Know" by Moore and Switchfoot's John Foreman, and "Cry" from her self-titled album released earlier this year.

"Cry" will be the first single off the soundtrack, which is due January 15, according to an Epic Records spokesperson. The movie, which stars Moore, Shane West ("Once and Again"), Peter Coyote and Daryl Hannah, will hit theaters January 25.

Switchfoot, a San Diego Christian rock trio, have also contributed several songs to the soundtrack, including "Learning to Breathe" and "I Dare You to Move" from their latest album, Learning to Breathe.

The New Radicals' "Mother, We Just Can't Get Enough" from their only album, 16-year-old Colorado singer Rachael Lampa's "If You Believe," and British dance act Toploader's "Dancing in the Moonlight" round out the soundtrack.

"A Walk to Remember" marks Moore's second foray into acting. She played a smaller role in the summer film "The Princess Diaries" (see "Mandy Moore Tackles New Album, Film Debut").

Based on the novel by Nicholas Sparks, "A Walk to Remember" is about a teenage boy from the wrong side of the tracks who falls in love with the daughter of the town's Baptist minister, according to the spokesperson.

Moore is keeping a high profile on the small screen as well. She recently filmed a segment for "Bravo on Broadway" where she sang numbers from "Guys and Dolls" and "Little Shop of Horrors." It will air on Bravo in February. She is also slated to perform on CBS' "Home for the Holidays" and TNT's "Christmas in Washington" in December, and will host the inaugural MTV Asia Music Awards on February 2.
