Stream of Consciousness / Best Use of a Song in a Movie
« on: February 24, 2005, 07:34:30 AM »
Quote from: "urth"
I'll offer the scene in Testament in which Jane Alexander's character, and her son, both suffering from radiation sickness, dance to "All My Loving."

Never cried more in a movie in my life.


Me too -- and I almost NEVER cry at movies. But I cried pretty much continuously for the last 45 mins of Testament.

and re: Coming Home -- its soundtrack is virtually ALL songs of the period (I don't think there's an actual orchestral underscore at all) and I always liked the use of the Stone's "Out of Time" to set up Bruce Dern's character at the beginning.

Why do people hate them so?
Why do people like them so?


are we feeling a bit... contrary today, geoff? :?

EW did a bit this week where they invited Aimee Mann, Michael Penn, David Cross and Desmond Child to watch the Grammys and make running commentary.  EVERYBODY had snarky things to say about Maroon 5, so clearly it's not "hip" to like them; but what I've heard of them so far has been pleasant, slick pop.

Ree-Ree, "Until You Come Back"... I think I'll ask Greg to play Stevie's version this week on CG.


or basia!


I prefer to keep the white folks to a bare minimum on Soul Spectrum :wink:

It's a slippery slope... you start with Basia and next thing you know, it's Maroon 5.  And here they are on SmoothFM! Why do people hate them so?

these wacky Brits -- they just LOVES them some Alexander O'Neal! "If You Were Here Tonight", which reminds me of RFTW's "Love Me Down" crossed with some Freddy Jackson song I can't pin down.
