Background

Four out of the nine total tracks on the soundtrack are performed by the series' star, Demi Lovato. Co-stars Tiffany Thornton and Sterling Knight each perform two tracks. Hollywood Records group Allstar Weekend appears once on the soundtrack. The theme song, "So Far, So Great", was written by Aris Archontis, Jeannie Lurie and Chen Neeman.

Singles

"Me, Myself and Time", performed by Demi Lovato, was released as promotional single on August 3, 2010. It was featured in an episode of the TV series and was later sent to Radio Disney for airplay. It is the first track of the soundtrack, written by Antonina Armato, Tim James and Devrim Karaoglu.

Critical reception

The soundtrack received mixed reviews from music critics. Andrew Leahey of AllMusic gave a review: Released toward the end of the show’s second season, this soundtrack features nine songs performed by the cast of Sonny with a Chance. Lovato, who plays title character Allison "Sonny" Munroe, gets the most air time, singing lead on four songs (including the theme "So Far, So Great") and leaving co-stars Tiffany Thornton and Sterling Knight with two tunes apiece. Allstar Weekend, a Disney-affiliated emo band with ties to the show, also contribute a song. Thornton and Knight both deserve kudos for co-writing their own tunes, but that doesn’t overshadow the fact that most of the material here is formulaic pop/rock, stripped of anything unique or different from other Disney albums. The vocals are Auto-Tuned, a move that smooths out the natural quirks in each singer’s voice, and the music is played by a group of session musicians who aren’t even listed in the credits. None of that really matters, of course—the kids who watch Sonny with a Chance don’t give a hoot about the name of the soundtrack’s bass player—but it doesn’t reflect well on Lovato, who has the most to lose as an aspiring musician when albums like this are released.

Commercial performance

The soundtrack debuted number 163 on the Billboard 200, making Lovato's lowest debut and peaking soundtrack there. It has also debuted at number 3 on the US Kid Albums and at number 8 on the US Top Soundtracks.
