Oh for pity’s sake. That was supposed to be eclectic, not economic. Have I mentioned how much I hate autocorrect?

You have mentioned your hatred of auto correct before Kim. It can be the bane of one’s life at times.

Oh I LOVE LOTR soundtrack! I quite like that Take a Bow song by Madonna too, and the music video is gorgeous. I’ve been listening to the soundtrack of CONTROL which is a biopic on Joy Division’s frontman Ian Curtis.

The LOTR soundtracks are some of the most spellbinding music I’ve ever heard. And as I’m a huge fan of Madonna, I agree about the video being gorgeously shot.

Loving this selection, especially the swing / jazz element. Although, from the list, Set fire to the third bar, is my favourite. Absolutely adore this tack 🙂

I do love that song. Something about their voices mingling and the way it builds to a crescendo is really beautiful.

Agreed, it’s haunting in a way. I’m a huge fan of Eyes Open as an album anyway but I saw Closer at about the same time as purchasing the album so between Damien Rice’s ‘The Blowers Daughter’ and Snow Patrol, I was all about the angsty, emotional love songs!

Don’t you just love angsty love songs. Thanks for reminding me I’m due another watch of Closer, been ages since I last saw it.

A classy playlist, but then I wouldn’t have expected anything else. I particularly like your selection of Duke Ellington, music was his mistress and she played second fiddle to no one!
