The film featured the [[Diane Warren]]–penned [[LeAnn Rimes]] hit single "[[How Do I Live]]", performed by [[Trisha Yearwood]] for the film.<ref name="Rimes"/>{{refn|[[The Walt Disney Company|Walt Disney Motion Picture Group]] (which owns Touchstone Pictures) chose Rimes' version but thought the version had too much of pop feeling, with [[Trisha Yearwood]]'s version used instead. Both versions were released on May 27, 1997.<ref name="Rimes">[https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000000CQF "Leann Rimes, Music: How Do I Live / My Baby."] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160202062904/http://www.amazon.com/dp/B000000CQF |date=February 2, 2016 }} ''Amazon.com.''

The ''Con Air'' soundtrack album omits two songs featured in the film: "How Do I Live", written by [[Diane Warren]] and performed by Trisha Yearwood and "[[Sweet Home Alabama]]" by [[Lynyrd Skynyrd]]. Although a key element of the film, Mick LaSalle of the ''[[San Francisco Chronicle]]'' noted, "The soundtrack kicks into loud, obtrusive gear ... [and] remains so loud throughout the picture that it practically functions as a distancing device."<ref>LaSalle, Mick.
