Johnny Loftus of AllMusic gave Charmed: The Soundtrack three stars out of five and wrote that it "is just a milky collection of light modern rock from a mixture of heavyweights and hopefuls."[1] Loftus also noted that "the real standout" on the soundtrack is Rachael Yamagata's song "Worn Me Down".[1] On October 11, 2003, Charmed: The Soundtrack debuted at number 177 on the US Billboard 200 chart[5] and number 10 on the US Billboard Top Soundtracks chart.[6]
