States Jonathan Platt, President of Treadstone Records: "When we selected the songs for the new Charmed soundtrack we were adamant that each one reflect the core message of the show: the power of three strong, independent women. The soundtrack is kind of like a modern day Lilith Fair, it's a really engaging display of girl power, which is one of the ideals that has earned Charmed so many devoted fans, both male and female."
