''Vanilla Sky''<nowiki/>'s score was by Crowe's then wife, [[Nancy Wilson (rock musician)|Nancy Wilson]], who also scored ''[[Jerry Maguire]]'' and ''[[Almost Famous]]''. Wilson spent nine months on the film's music, which was done through experimentation of [[sound collage]]s. "We were trying to balance out the heaviness of the story with sugary pop-culture music," she said. "We made sound collages of all kinds. We were channeling [[Brian Wilson]] to a large extent. I was recording things through hoses, around corners, playing guitars with cello bows, and with [music editor] Carl Kaller, we tried all kinds of wacky stuff. In the murder–sex scene sound collage, Cameron even used Brian Wilson's speaking voice from a ''[[Pet Sounds]]'' mix session."<ref>{{cite web |author1=Maura Kelly |title=An Interview with Nancy Wilson |url=https://believermag.com/an-interview-with-nancy-wilson/ |website=[[The Believer (magazine)|The Believer]] |access-date=August 16, 2013 |date=August 1, 2007 |archive-date=December 3, 2018 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20181203060003/https://believermag.com/an-interview-with-nancy-wilson/ |url-status=live }}</ref>
