LISTEN:
If you were stranded on a desert island and could only have one album, what would you pick? Jessica Chastain’s character, Melissa Lewis, would take (and took) 1970’s Disco Music, for despair of Mark Whatney (Matt Damon), who hates it. If you, unlikely Wathney, fancy disco music, you may be interested in listening to the The Martian soundtrack, which includes ABBA, Bee Gees and Donna Summer.
