Sound of Soundtracks: Marie Antoinette

Marie Antoinette, starring Kirsten Dunst, is a top favorite. Most of my friends know I am a history lover, and especially love to see it portrayed in movies and novels. This is another classic (true) story that is mixed with more modern music and was perfectly done. Every time I hear a song from this soundtrack, I always get the strongest urge to watch the movie in that moment.

(I think my favorite!!)

I honestly feel like so many of these songs are playing in my head as I go through my life. I connect with them; they make me feel so alive. If you haven't seen this movie, it is well worth your time.

Enjoy!

Sound of Soundtracks: Romeo & Juliet

William Shakespeare's Romeo & Juliet, starring Claire Danes and Leonardo DiCaprio. An exceptionally well done modern twist on an old classic. This soundtrack was the first one I ever owned, and opened the doors for me to others.

Radiohead: Talk Show Host

Thank God for this song on this album! This opened me to Radiohead at such a young age. This song is actually reported to be the single to have turned a lot of people to Radiohead, as many fans were somewhat unimpressed with their earlier releases. Oh, how I love them!!!

The Wannadies: You & Me Song

Brief tonight, forgive me. Enjoy these!
