Шаблон:Use mdy datesШаблон:Infobox album Happy Feet Two (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) is the soundtrack to the 2011 film Happy Feet Two, directed by George Miller and a sequel to Happy Feet (2006). It features a collection of songs ranging from various genres—rock, pop, hip hop, rhythm and blues—performed by the cast and an original score composed by John Powell. Unlike the predecessor, the score and the songs were released in a single album by Atlantic Records and WaterTower Music in ITunes on November 15, 2011,[1] which would be followed by a CD release six days later.[2] The deluxe edition of the album contains an addition of 5 songs performed by Ozomatli, released on November 30.[3]

Reception
James Christopher Monger of AllMusic commented that the album "sports an even mix of upbeat dance, rock, and pop cuts and orchestral work from composer John Powell".[4] Filmtracks.com wrote "There is less uniquely interesting activity here than in Kung Fu Panda 2 from earlier in the same year, and the listening experience on album will be a challenge for some enthusiasts of the composer because of the intrusion of source applications (like "We Are the Champions") directly into the score. Such fans will find five to ten minutes of worthy new music to add to their playlists from the original Happy Feet score, but don't expect much more. Meanwhile, aside from some funny treatment of a Dmitri Tiomkin standard, the songs clustered with the score this time tell you all you need to know about why the movie failed at the box office."[5] We Got This Covered wrote "The soundtrack is compelling and fun. It’s a mix of R & B, pop rock, some classic rock, and in this movie even some classic opera. The cute re-mixing of popular songs is a hold-over from the original Happy Feet, and it works just as well in this sequel."[6]
