The Muse Original Motion Picture Soundtrack is the soundtrack for the film The Muse, released by English musician Elton John in 1999 through The Rocket Record Company and Island Records. The album is a departure for John, as it mainly contains the orchestrated score for the film, which he wrote in its entirety. The only vocal tracks are the title track, which was co-written with longtime lyricist Bernie Taupin, and a remix of the title track, remixed by Jermaine Dupri.
It was John's third soundtrack following the release of the "Friends" Original Soundtrack Recording in 1971 and The Lion King Original Motion Picture Soundtrack in 1994. It was preceded by Elton John and Tim Rice's Aida, a concept album that was released in early 1999, to draw attention to the Aida Broadway musical.
