Singles is the original soundtrack album to the film Singles, primarily focused on the ascendant grunge music scene of the early 1990s. It also features contributions from Paul Westerberg (his first solo material after the breakup of The Replacements), Chicago's The Smashing Pumpkins, and past Seattle rockers Jimi Hendrix and the Lovemongers (Ann and Nancy Wilson of Heart). It was released on June 30, 1992.

The soundtrack considered to have helped open the door to the explosive popularity of Seattle grunge music in the early 1990s. According to Steve Huey of All Music Guide, "Singles helped crystallize the idea of the 'Seattle scene' in the mainstream public's mind, and it was also one of the first big-selling '90s movie soundtracks (it went platinum and reached the Top Ten) to feature largely new work from contemporary artists...it's a milestone in the breakthrough of alternative rock into mainstream popular culture, neatly and effectively packaging the Seattle phenomenon for the wider national consciousness."
