LEGENDS OF THE FALL: Autumn 2008, Vol. 1
Sometimes I think I would make a kickass music supervisor someday.
Selecting the right tracks to incorporate into a movie, placing the right hook at the right moment, milking an emotional scene for all its worth...I'd live for that shit.
Ladies and gents, here's your soundtrack to the fall, an eclectic collection of tunes you already know (Mr. Archuleta, I hesitate to put you on here, but you're just so damn irresistible)...and tunes you should know (hello, Black Kids and Alphabeat).
Ready...set...download:
1. "Right Here (Departed)" by Brandy
2. "Save the Lies (Good to Me)" by Gabriella Cilmi
3. "Keeps Gettin' Better" by Christina Aguilera
4. "Spiraling" by Keane
5. "Boyfriend" by Alphabeat - Take Madonna circa 1985, thrown in some male vocals and then shake until all excess sequins and fishnets fall off.
6. "If This is Love" by The Saturdays
