Toby Barlow wrote in the Huffington Post: "[T]he Short Bus Soundtrack … deserves to be mentioned 'cause it's so damn good. As far as soundtracks go, it reminds me of the collection in 'Something Wild' which held a lot of the same life-affirming joy. There's a Scott Matthew tune on it that sounds like great Bowie, there's a nice little Yo La Tengo tune, there's a fun debauched pop ditty by Jay Brannan, and a mess of other lovely, cool music. … [T]urn it up and pass the gravy."
